Great video, next time I think it would be better to incorporate other details such as the price and accesability. Overall, I did agree with this list and would like to see more videos about comparisons in the future.
Hey thanks so much! I appreciate your input as well. This is my second “comparison” video on this channel, and I’ve found that I really enjoy doing them. If there’s any specific comparison vids that you’d like to see, be sure to let me know!
Serious ? Would you prefer a box for the 15 streaking kittens cards? For the other 2 extensions the boxes are oversized, it's ridiculous. we only want cards
Hey thanks for commenting! Have you seen the boxes for the Here To Slay expansions? They’re small and compact, but they do an excellent job of keeping all of your cards together, as opposed to a ziplock bag, or permanently mixing them in with your main base game. I agree that the expansion boxes are awkwardly huge, but I’d still like a small container to keep them in, separate from my other expansions.
I was origianlly think Imploding kittens in 3rd Barking kittens in 2nd and streaking kittens in 1st. But u changed my mind. I AGREE with ur list by a LONG SHOT
I’m so glad that my list resonated with you! It was a hard task. It’s not easy saying that one expansion is the worst of them all, or that one expansion is the absolutely best. That said, I feel good about the final standing, at least until they release a future expansion, hopefully a Super Nope expansion.
Barking kittens didn't click with me entirely I wish I knew why, probably the tower of power When I played with imploding kittens I thought I was playing with an expanded base game those cards fit perfectly With Streaking kittens it has a lot of my favourite cards and 2 of my least favourite cards, curse of the cat butt and mark so extremes on both ends, lol
You make so many great points here! I couldn’t agree with you more. Barking Kittens was the first time I felt “expansion fatigue”. That was also when they started releasing revamped base game editions that included special cards. Barking sadly got saddled with all the leftover “expansion” ideas. You hit it right on the head with Imploding Kittens. It fits so snugly into the EK world. It’s without a doubt the first expansion that everyone should get. Streaking Kittens was such an innovative expansion, you can tell that they were really flexing their creative muscles. That said, cards like the Cat Butt added so much tension and confusion to the EK world. Lol I think they’re STILL figuring that card out! Thanks so much for taking the time to share your thoughts! Take care and have a great day!
Hi! My siblings have been using all the expansions but i think there is some things we don't know yet (specially the curse of the cat but). It would be awesome if you do some tutorials❤❤
Hello and thanks for reaching out! A series of tutorial videos is an awesome idea! I’m right there with you. With so many various cards and expansions, I’ve chosen to keep all of them separate, that way I can choose what expansions I want to play with. Take care and have a great day!
Personal attack cards are cool in concept, effectively creating a new type of strategy for the game. The problem, is that in practice, it’s too risky without see/alter the future cards, and even then, it’s not a memorable card. It’s not a bad card, just underwhelming.
I totally agree with you! I was telling someone the same thing, that without a “future” card it can be really dicey to play. My friends and I would attack ourselves with the “Targeted Attack” cards to achieve the same effect, since the card states that you can target “any player”. As you said, it’s not a bad card, but it’s not making any “top 10” lists either. Take care and thanks for sharing!
Yes!! I don’t know that there’ll ever be a card that’s on par with the Streaking Kitten. It wins on every level in my book. A “Super Nope” card could give it a run for its money tho…
I'm not sure if you can buy it separately but I do remeber seeing a streaking kitten box in a party pack box that had the exploding base game bear vs badies Some other game i forgot and streaking kittens but the streaking kitttens came in there card board box.
Hello, I was wondering if you would know in which chronological order the different versions of the base game came. I have found versions online that say original edition on the right side of the box and editions that don't say it. I also found editions that say on the bottom right that say #1 most backed kickstarter and also editions that say minutes to learn and time to play on the bottom right instead. This makes it so there are 4 different english editions (maybe more that I don't know of). Would you know why they are different and also in which order they were released? Kind regards, Geoffrey Steurbaut
Hello and thanks for reaching out! As of this moment, I don’t know the chronological order of the original base game editions. Exploding Kittens has been notorious for making “updates” to their games-even their rules-without anyone noticing. This has led to quite a bit of confusion in the EK community. I wish I had more information for you!
Hello i have a question. Can you add all the expansion cards to EK original and play with all of them combined or is it just one expansion you can add at a time?
Hello and thanks for reaching out! Yes, you can combine any and all expansion packs and base games together! It will make for one epic game night. Take care and have a great day!
@mikeleinterrante6602 with imploding kittens you can add another person to the game ( so 6 players max). If you add the other 2 expansion the maximum will remain 6 players.
Imploding kittens is the best! About the others > We hate the cards that make us lose time looking for cards in the deck then shuffle etc. No way. We want fast and furious games!
Isnt imploding card too bad? I understand well? You just must draw that card and loose? Not fair, no way to make any tactic.. just a fib skip turn/revers war i guess?
It depends on your opinion! Speaking for myself personally, I love it that you can’t escape the Imploding Kitten card. It adds a sense of danger that causes everyone to fight for their lives. That said, I also understand why someone wouldn’t like the card, because there’s nothing you can do to shut it down. Take care and have a great day!
That’s a great question! The expansion version of Zombie Kittens was briefly made available to customers, but was quickly removed, apparently due to shipping costs. I tried to buy it myself, but you can’t find it anywhere. Apparently it’s still part of the big game bundles on the Exploding Kittens website, but that’s the only way to get it. Because it’s not readily available to customers, and also because it’s a spin-off of the original Zombie Kittens base game, I felt that it was best to leave it off this list. However, I will definitely be including the original game when I rank the various base games. Take care and thanks for commenting!
@@gameswithdenverjames I personally just want to see the instructions booklet for that 22 card expansion version, so I don't have to do the mammoth zombie apocalypse mode when I want to combine decks
Helped me a lot ! .. thanks dude 🫡 Watched almost all your videos Luved the guide , edits , filming, commentary...everything is perfect. Keep it up 🔥👍🏻
Hey that’s awesome to hear! It’s great to hear that these videos have been helpful to you. That’s always the goal. Thanks so much for sharing and take care!
i own imploding kittens and love it and completely overlooked streaking kittens
imma have to check that out
Imploding Kittens is great!! That said, Streaking Kittens is totally worth a look.
Great video, next time I think it would be better to incorporate other details such as the price and accesability. Overall, I did agree with this list and would like to see more videos about comparisons in the future.

If You're a big fan of a game like exploding kittens surley u would want to have at least a better option for storage and keeping your cards safe.
I agree, it only makes them more expensive
Same
Streaking kittens is fire bro
I've only ever played the original exploding kittens, but I still love Denver James! He's the cutest kitten !
Haha your kind words and encouragement always spur me on Adam!!

I only have the Imploding Kittens and Barking Kittens expansions , but I like Streaking Kittens more
Streaking Kittens is definitely a winner! Imploding Kittens is amazing in its own right as well.
I want to buy them all!
It makes for one epic collection!
Hi! My siblings have been using all the expansions but i think there is some things we don't know yet (specially the curse of the cat but). It would be awesome if you do some tutorials❤❤
When combining all of the expansions it makes the game fun but hard to understand

I love the good vs evil base game/expansion
Good Vs Evil is fantastic! For me, it’s right up there with Zombie Kittens.
Personal attack cards are cool in concept, effectively creating a new type of strategy for the game.
The problem, is that in practice, it’s too risky without see/alter the future cards, and even then, it’s not a memorable card. It’s not a bad card, just underwhelming.

Streaking Kittens is like that tiny bomb Tom🐈⬛ laughed at and put on his nose only just to vanish him 😂💥 Cute but powerful.
Yes!! I don’t know that there’ll ever be a card that’s on par with the Streaking Kitten. It wins on every level in my book. A “Super Nope” card could give it a run for its money tho…
ZOMBIE KITTENS have amazing cards
Zombie Kittens is one of my favorite base games! Such a fun addition.
I'm not sure if you can buy it separately but I do remeber seeing a streaking kitten box in a party pack box that had the exploding base game bear vs badies
Some other game i forgot and streaking kittens but the streaking kitttens came in there card board box.
As a side comment i reget my user name
Whoa that’s awesome!! Something like that would go a long way. Haha I don’t judge your username in the slightest!

@gameswithdenverjames i tried sending them a mail but they haven't yet responded.
Is there a bundle that has the original game plus 3 expansions?
Not to my knowledge, but then again EK has sold these games as bundles on their website before! It’s worth looking into.
Hello i have a question. Can you add all the expansion cards to EK original and play with all of them combined or is it just one expansion you can add at a time?
Hello and thanks for reaching out! Yes, you can combine any and all expansion packs and base games together! It will make for one epic game night. Take care and have a great day!
Adding the expansion packs converts a 2-5 player version to a 10. Player version?
@mikeleinterrante6602 with imploding kittens you can add another person to the game ( so 6 players max). If you add the other 2 expansion the maximum will remain 6 players.
How do you add the extensions to your game?
Do you just add all the cards? And that’s it?
That’s right! Exploding Kittens makes it really easy to add and play.
Imploding kittens is the best! About the others > We hate the cards that make us lose time looking for cards in the deck then shuffle etc. No way. We want fast and furious games!
Imploding Kittens is truly awesome!! Plus I appreciate how you describe it as fast and furious-very fitting!
Isnt imploding card too bad? I understand well? You just must draw that card and loose? Not fair, no way to make any tactic.. just a fib skip turn/revers war i guess?

what about zombie kittens just the 22 😉

@@gameswithdenverjames thank you!
@@gameswithdenverjames I personally just want to see the instructions booklet for that 22 card expansion version, so I don't have to do the mammoth zombie apocalypse mode when I want to combine decks
I’m with you there! That would save a lot of time and trouble. I also hope that they eventually bring that 22-card expansion back.
@@gameswithdenverjames I think it's a way to make more money so people buy the main edition?
If i pick a expention pack i Will pick imploting kittins
That’s an excellent pic!! Love what Imploding did for the EK world.
I have a question if i darw an defuse card in the start of a game do i keep it or put it back in the draw pile
Great question! You get to keep it if you draw it. Drawing a second Diffuse card is always the best!
Ok thank you so much
My mom say if all the card in the Hand is gone she said she won is this true
ngl im sans
Nice to meet you sans! Welcome to the channel!
Helped me a lot ! .. thanks dude 🫡
