We've seen plenty of Cyber Monday board game deals pop up over the last few days but there's been one in particular that's caught my eye - and it's not just because of its slightly alarming name. Exploding Kittens, a card game "for people who are into kittens and explosions" is currently on sale by 50% at Amazon for Cyber Monday. Not only this, but its spin-off games are also available at a generous half-price discount. 

If you've never heard of Exploding Kittens, it's basically a strategic card game where 2 - 5 players take turns to draw cards until someone picks up an exploding kitten and well, you can probably guess the rest. Unless that is, they have a defuse card that uses tactics like laser pointers, belly rubs, and catnip to calm the fragile feline down. If you weren't already convinced by this amazing deal, it may help to know that Exploding Kittens was the most funded game on the crowdfunding site Kickstarter back when it launched in 2015. 

The original Exploding Kittens set is down to just $9.99 at Amazon, 50% off its usual $20 price tag in today's Cyber Monday deals. It was around this time last year that we saw it go down a little more to $9.97 so if you're looking for an explosive game to play this Holiday season - now's the time to pounce. You can see the full deal, plus the other Exploding Kittens discounts below.
