Game inventor Ken Gruhl has joined Exploding Kittens as Senior Game Designer.
Ken is a prolific designer, having invented hits including North Star Games’ Happy Salmon, CMON’s Foodies and Gamewright’s Cahoots.
“I’m excited to join the Exploding Kittens team to continue bringing game innovation and humour to the masses,” said Ken.
“This role is a great departure from freelance for me to learn the inner workings of a publisher which understands great hooks and gameplay.”
Exploding Kittens recently launched its 10th game in the form of A Little Wordy. That follows other recent launches for the firm, including Poetry for Neanderthals, A Game of Cat and Mouth and Tacocat Spelled Backwards.
