I was searching around for a good way to combine every Exploding Kittens game and expansion but never found it so I figured to make my own deck. Below is the deck for anyone else looking to make their own ultimate deck:
Exploding Kittens (51 cards)
All base game cards minus the defuses (gets removed with Zombie Kitten). If you have more than 5 players or want a longer game you could always add these back though.
10 Year Celebration Bonus Cards (8 cards)
These cards aren’t necessary and are pretty broken but my group is kinda crazy and likes the chaos. For anyone wondering, these bonus cards are the following:
- Amateur Archeology
- Creepy Peeky
- Hip Cat
- Hip Bat
- Plus Plus
- Robin Hood
- Battle Hamster
- The Twins
Most of these cards come from the deck of legends. But they printed them for the 10 Year Celebration game box they made.
Imploding Kittens (20 cards)
Streaking Kittens (15 cards)
Barking Kittens (20 cards)
I actually have the original version of barking kittens where you steal half the players hand instead of exploding, which I think works better for this mega game.
Cat Burglar Edition (0 cards)
We are just taking the Cat Burglar mechanic and plush out of this edition as the deck itself is pretty much the same as the base game.
Zombie Kittens (22 cards):
- Up to 5 Zombie Kittens
- 3 Attack of the Dead
- 2 Clairvoyance
- 2 Clone
- 4 Dig Deeper
- 2 Feed the Dead
- 1 Grave Robber
- 1 Shuffle (Now)
- 2 Super Skip
This is actually just the same if you bought the small expansion pack, however if you have the full game you can simply just pull these cards out.
Good vs Evil (16 cards):
- 1 Godcat
- 1 Devil Cat
- 4 Feral Cat
- 3 Armageddon
- 2 Raising Heck
- 3 Reveal the Future
- 2 Targeted Attack
Rage Mode (15 cards):
- 3 Bad Decision
- 3 Reveal and Steal
- 2 Alter the Future (Now)
- 4 Booby Trap Kitten
- 2 Shared Suffering
- 1 Reverse Attack
If you so wish you could choose to include the remaining 2 Alter the Futures, 3 Reverse Attack, Shared Suffering, Bad Decision, and Reveal and Steal cards for a total of 23 cards but I chose to cut these to stay in the ballpark of the other expansion sizes.
Also if you have the version with the Unnopeable Nope you can include that card as well.
Creepy Kittens (11 Cards)
Aggro Kittens (11 Cards)
Curse You (18 Cards)
- All 4 Charms
- All 7 Curses
- Alter the Future
- 2 Draw From the Bottom
- 2 Peek
- 2 Targeted Attack
Fairy Pug Mother isn’t include due to it being removed from the game after all the packs are opened. In theory if you haven’t opened all the packs you could add it in, although I recommend playing Curse You alone until you have opened all the packs.
This makes a 204 (206 if you include Godcat and Devil Cat) megadeck! That being said you could always add more Exploding Kittens and defuses back in for more players if you want to play with more than 5.
If anyone has any recommendations or other ideas let me know, I would love to hear other people’s thoughts.
