Product Information

The Tacocat token is what players are trying to move into their goal space. During play, the Tacocat will be moved based on who wins.

Now it’s time to decide who goes first – with a duel… TO THE DEATH!! … (-whispers in my ear- What do you mean it’s not to the death?) Each player chooses a card from their hand and places it facedown. Then both players flip their card over together and whomever has the highest card goes first. If there’s a tie, you duel again until there is a winner. The box itself opens up to be the gameboard. There are goal spaces on either end of the board. Between goals are seven numbered spaces, and the number on the space determines how many cards are dealt to each player.

Isle of Man, Isle of Wight, Northern Ireland and the Scottish Highlands) may take longer to reach you. Last October, Exploding Kittens revealed that it would be publishing a portable party game called A Game of Cat and Mouth - which sees two players attempting to fling balls into their opponent’s side of the box. A dexterity game involving magnetic paw ‘catapults’ and a standee of a cat’s mouth splitting the two sides of the board, A Game of Cat and Mouth was released as soon as it was announced. The box is the board. It’s kind of a board game/card game combo. You start in the middle of the board and you play each hand. The winner of the hand moves the tacocat piece towards their end. If it’s a tie you move the tacocat piece in the direction of the arrow. Your goal is to get the tacocat down into your winning zone. Players get the chance to replace cards in their hand at the beginning of each round. Each space on the board has one or two arrows on it. The player with the arrow pointing at them gets to replace cards first. They may choose and discard as many cards as they like. The player is not required to replace any cards. Cards chosen are placed face up in the discard pile. Each round of the game follows the following sequence: Replace Cards, Duel, Play, Move Tacocat, & Place Tile. REPLACE CARDS

If a player is unable to defend (or chooses not to), they must play their lowest card face up to the table. If the opponent sacrifices their lowest card, the same player attaches again.

Release Summary

Exploding Kittens‘ latest hit is about a tiny, cardboard Tacocat ping-ponging from one side of a game board to the other until it makes it to one of the finish lines. BTW, remember Tacocat? It’s one of the most popular characters from the original Exploding Kittens game, so it’s only fitting that it stars in its own game. Your ultimate goal is to try and hold on to the lowest card possible because the lowest card wins the final round. So there is strategy at play here. After they are finished, their opponent gets to replace up to the same amount. They are not required to replace any cards if they do not want to. For example, if the first player replaces 3 cards, their opponent may replace 0, 1, 2, or 3 cards. The number on the space indicates how many cards will be in the hand. You will deal the cards and you start each round with a duel. You want to try and win the round so that you can set the tone for the next challenge. The highest card wins initial rounds, think War. The winner of the initial duel will then lay down a card and try and force their opponent to sacrifice their lowest cards.
