Exploding Minions
Exploding Kittens has launched its first licensed game in the form of Exploding Minions, a collaboration with Illumination and Universal Brand Development.

Inspired by Minions, the themed edition of Exploding Kittens includes new card types and Minions illustrations by The Oatmeal.

“We’re excited to combine one of the biggest card games with Illumination’s global pop-culture phenomenon, the Minions, to create a new family game night essential,” said Elan Lee, Co-Creator and CEO of Exploding Kittens.

“Exploding Minions marries these two universes to create a simple yet strategic game for all to enjoy.”
