Exploding Kittens - The Game for Negative User Reviews

Doesn’t workI tried to play with my friend multiple times and it just said the match doesn’t exist. Need to fix it..Version: 1.0.2

Could be awesomeIf person before you explodes a glitch in game causes you to run out of time and involuntarily draw or play a card. Ruins the entire game. Also game can freeze if another player who quit playing explodes then diffuses and doesn’t put card back in deck. Needs to be timer that puts it in deck randomly if no player response..Version: 1.0.2

The game plays for me sometimesReally fun game, but I find myself having my turn taken for me sometimes without my say so. It’s very frustrating..Version: 1.0.2

Bug in current game versionIf you play identical cat cards to steal a card and the computer plays a nope, then you play a nope to turn it into a yup, the game forces you to play another identical cat card. This is not in the original card game rules or explained in this game’s tutorial. At this point, if you don’t have another identical cat card (three of a kind in the card game allows you to steal a specific card) you are stuck and have no options but to force quit the app..Version: 1.0.2

Inactive players!!!Really enjoy the game but I only get to complete about a quarter of any multiplayer games I start. Please do something about the players that have dropped out mid-game, I’m fed up of staring at the screen for about 2 minutes waiting for something to happen!!.Version: 1.0.2

Fun game but has some technical issuesThe game is great and as fun as the tabletop version but there are some glitches. When someone tries to steal or kitten diarrhea from you it does not allow you to block with a nope card. The only thing you can nope is an attack. That can easy unbalance a game. Once it’s fixed I’d love to use the app again..Version: 1.0.2

Cludgy graphics and gameplayAs a fan of the original Explosing Kittens app, i was hopeful that they Netflix version would be better. Unfortunately the opposite occurred. The graphics during gameplay aren’t as smooth or enjoyable as the original. The network version has regular hangups and stalls. This version is not as enjoyable as its predecessor. It now is, however, the only version you can play over the Internet. Which would be a saving grace if it worked better..Version: 1.0.2

Time limitThere needs to be a time limit where the app puts in a bit if you take too long. I’ve played too many times and it just get stuck.Version: 1.0.2

3 starI love the original of this game but with this version it runs very slow and had many problems. I feel if more time was spent on it, it could be perfect like the original. But I will say I do prefer to play this one because of the cool cards it has!.Version: 1.0.2

Fun but buggyNoticed a few bugs while playing with friends. Sometimes the turns switched the other way (without that card played). Sometimes my turn ended without drawing a card. The flow of the game is also not obvious. Lastly, please add more background sounds, current one is annoying..Version: 1.0.2

Great for individual play but terrible with othersPlaying On my own the app works great. Wouldn’t work at all when I tried to play it with someone else..Version: 1.0.2

Needs to be a way to report/kick a playerA review of the game. Good but people who don’t play until the last second next to kindly F*** off.Version: 1.0.2

Gets stuck Very oftenWhenever you do see the future card, it very often makes u go stuck and continues the round while your stuck on that screen, for many other people and cards too not just myself. Incredibly buggy.Version: 1.0.2

AFK UsersThere’s so many AFK players had 3 back to back in matches. The devs need to implement a vote to kick system so when people are not actually playing the game that match can continue. Other then that great game!.Version: 1.0.2

Automatic unnecessary card playIt has done this several times. The app automatically plays cards while I’m busy thinking and it’s not even after 5 seconds have elapsed. It usually plays the Attack cards or draws a card (sometimes the Bomb) from the pile w/o waiting for me to drag the card myself or play an action. It played two rounds on its own in one game! Please fix this this is so excruciatingly frustrating. This problem is prevalent as I found this on Reddit. Sm said it’s bcuz there are no other actions but that not true as another reviewer wrote: No, thats not it. Often I want to perform an action but instead it quickly draws one. At other times it even performs an action such as putting cards that i didnt want to.Version: 1.0.2

Go and buy the paid versionThis version seems like an old version of the game. That is more like tha original card game. It seems laggy and a bit buggy. Do yourselves a favour and search for exploding kittens on the AppStore and pay the couple of quid to get that version. It’s much more fun and not laggy or buggy..Version: 1.0.2

Bugs need to be fixedFun game except for the bugs. Game gets stuck so I or other players can’t make moves, or the game makes my move for me. Most recent example being a player stealing my cards when I had two nope cards available to play back - it didn’t give any time to play them..Version: 1.0.2

Be able to kick out peopleSometimes one person doesn’t play at all and it really ruins the game cause then i have to leave and start all over again. i think we should be able to kick out people if they become non-existent.Version: 1.0.2

Fun but issuesNeeds to make it where it doesn't auto draw. There's been times where I get a bong randomly at the beginning of my turn when I was planning on shuffling. All in all a fun game, I have the real version. Just don't like auto draw and when it glitches and takes someone's turn.Version: 1.0.2

Needs so much workSuch a fun game when working, but often freezes, chooses wrong card or no card at all, and when I have almost won on last move, it has kicked me out of the game to restart a few times and ruins my stats. It’s mind boggling how crappy it is..Version: 1.0.2

Game is extremely buggy, almost unplayableSo many bugs in the game it makes it unplayable. I'd say one in four games it gets stuck on a user who DC'd—there's supposed to be a time limit on each turn but for some reason that doesn't happen and it just freezes on one user and never goes to the next player (always seems to happen when I have a great hand too). On top of that, sometimes it auto draws a card or even auto plays one of your cards without giving you a chance to play something else (even when you had other playable cards). These are fundamental bugs that completely ruin the game, though would be a great game if they were fixed..Version: 1.0.2

Requires a Netflix account to playWaste of time..Version: 1.0.2

Can’t play with friendsCan’t play with friends as something always breaks like a start button not showing up or the game telling me the match is no longer found.Version: 1.0.2

No turn timerI love this game, but the problem there are no turn timer. Thats mean, if someone decide stop playing his turn never end. And nobody can continu to play..Version: 1.0.2

Game plays itselfRandomly plays it’s self, draws and plays cards as it fancies. Unplayable..Version: 1.0.2

Glitchiest game I’ve ever played.Even though this is a great game of strategy and fun, it glitches so often that it’s a huge disappointment. You’ll be halfway through the game in a spectacular position to win and it’ll just randomly freeze. It’s surprising that a company such as NETFLIX with the revenue for development can’t fix the bugs. Don’t play it, because you’ll really enjoy it and then get the rug pulled on you when it locks up and you get a lucky draw or have the upper hand on your opponent..Version: 1.0.2

Great game, exceptA great game, except there needs to be a way to vote someone out of the game. To many times when playing with strangers, the sore losers will stall out the game and force everyone else to quit. It’s cheap and needs to be dealt with. Or at least a report system to let others know they aren’t good sports and won’t let you or someone else take the win..Version: 1.0.2

Good except for game-breaking bugFun game, except sometimes, when the player before you explodes, it will auto play for you for no reason. It happens a lot, it doesnt just draw, it will actually play one of your attack/skip cards automatically. Literally breaks the game..Version: 1.0.2

Bad programmingThe game lags way too much. It has cards that the original exploding kittens mobile game doesn’t have, which I don’t have a problem with, but hiding an exploding kitten, seeing the future, and using the radar card shouldn’t have to make you drag anything. It should just show you the future. Also, each player is supposed to get dealt ONE defuse. The others get shuffled into the draw pile after dealing. I thought it would be better than the original since it has NOPE cards, but apparently not..Version: 1.0.2

GlitchyUnplayable due to glitches. Fix game pls.Version: 1.0.2

Game plays by itselfGet to the last few cards and it seems to play for me, without me doing anything. Very frustrating. Or skips my go for no reason..Version: 1.0.2

More Bugs Than CatsI never review apps, but I just needed to warn people about this one. In addition to the ones in other reviews, the single player mode where you play against AI does not keep track of your wins like it is supposed to, so you cannot progress into medium and hard difficulty. If you want a mobile version of Exploding Kittens, get the actual app. It’s got more features anyway..Version: 1.0.2

Nope - did not like this at allOne round then deleted it..Version: 1.0.2

BugsThere is no timer when player is supposed to put back the exploding kitten. People just leave it like that or connection get lost. No idea.. please resolve..Version: 1.0.2

You need a Netflix account to playDon’t download it’s a waste of time.Version: 1.0.2

Still full of bugsPlays your turn for you…so annoying.Version: 1.0.2

Too many glitchesThé game itself is great, but there are too many glitches. some of which are: 1. When I set up a private game, it registers me as both the owner and another player in the game creating x+1 players, and removing the start function from me 2. when you win against the bot, it doesn’t register, so you’re stuck with the lowest level bot 3. when other people join your game, it doesn’t ensure you’ve loaded in their game before they start, resulting in the game to appear as no longer active 4. sometimes cards glitch and do not register. please make these changes soon..Version: 1.0.2

ScatnipA few times now it just gets stuck on a player and everyone gets frustrated and then just leaves. There should also be a time limit on turns..Version: 1.0.2

Play with strangers glitchEvery time I hit play with strangers it goes through the motions of picking players and then as it goes to load a screen pops up saying “match no longer exists”. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Nothing works..Version: 1.0.2

Crashes on Password Manager useCrashes when trying to fill in username/password with password manager.Version: 1.0.2

It’s too buggySometimes the game just plays cards for you when you haven’t touched the screen. It gets so buggy that you have to remove and reinstall, the first two times that worked but now it’s just unplayable. Some players stop playing mid game and it ruins it for everyone else, they should explode after a certain time idle..Version: 1.0.2

App problems!!!Good game, But I can’t log in into my Netflix account, every time I try to log in there is a new code error. I deleted the app, update, turned off device, change password.. still nothing..Version: 1.0.2

Terrible bugsJust lost a match because all my cards were merged together and I was about to win but couldn’t play my cards :/.Version: 1.0.2

Fun game with issues. Please fix!I enjoy this game when it works, but as others have mentioned, there are a variety of issues that make the game frustrating to play (beyond the parts that are supposed to be frustrating 😅) including cards being drawn or played automatically and single player not saving status after beating easy and medium levels. Please fix these issues! It would make it so much more fun to play!.Version: 1.0.2

Fun but needs a polishSuggestion: Reducing my score to 2 stars For the love of god PLEASE add a turn timer! Every third game gets stalled by someone leaving and then just never taking their turn. Even cheap Hearts or Euchre apps have a bot player take over if someone takes more than a minute or so to play their turn. Thanks!.Version: 1.0.2

Very buggy and frustratingThere are so many bugs in this version of the game it’s barely worth playing. Every time you try and play, there is a chance that the game itself is an exploding kitten and the bugs cause a misplay. Issues: 1- not saving status for profiles that are not the profile of the account holder -> can’t play the medium and hard levels with self 2- game play with strangers will sometimes automatically draw a card for you even if you were going to play a card instead. 3- game play with strangers will sometimes automatically play a card for you even if you wanted to draw or play a different card 4- the cats arm telling you it’s time to play will sometimes start coming down as soon as your turn starts 5- the see the future card has occasionally lied about the position of cards 6- have tried playing the nope card when another player tries to steal a card and it doesn’t let me - and will often automatically play another card or draw for me instead if it is my turn next. 7- recently a game with strangers started where one player had 0 cards and the clipboard was missing.Version: 1.0.2

No timer, what a jokeHad a few games in a row where one of the players just decides not to play their turn, they use the expressions but don’t play there turn. How do you make a turn based multiplayer game not have a turn timer? Or a basic kick function?. Pointless playing really..Version: 1.0.2

Something’s wrong with your gameI love Netflix and exploding kitten and when I hear I could play it for free and I just need Netflix I downloaded it but I keep getting a bug where it won’t let draw a card so I haven’t been able to play it please fix it!.Version: 1.0.2

Lots of bugsGame is scuffed. Some players are stuck, game froze, sometimes the game automatically picks my move, etc. Lots of other bugs needed to be fixed..Version: 1.0.2

Difficulty unlock issueI enjoy this game and it’s great for killing time.. But I’ve been playing for about a week and realized that when you select ‘play with yourself’, I can only play the toaster cat level. The Win/ Lose count is still set to Zero and the kitt-e and clawborg300 levels won’t unlock. I have the real life game and this is a step up. I’d hate to stop playing because it’s not challenging anymore..Version: 1.0.2

GlitchyFun to play alone but when you play with strangers it freezes too much..Version: 1.0.2

Fun But…They need to make a Max Turn Limit on multiplayer. It’s annoying when people rage quit because they’re losing and refuse to move and you get stuck in a loss because the game hasn’t figured out an Infinite Amount of Time probably isn’t the right amount for multiplayer. Otherwise fun, wish offline mode had multiple enemies instead of just a 1v1 only mode..Version: 1.0.2

Bad softwareFor a company which pays a lot to software engineers, it sure does crashes way too often! During the game! I loved the concept but had to uninstall to avoid the disappointment I feel each time it crashes when I was about to win! Please do better!!!!!!.Version: 1.0.2

Makes no senseJust draw cards until you get an exploding kitten card. That’s literally it, there is no game involved at all. Very very odd.Version: 1.0.2

Fun, but problems need to be fixed or else not worth playingThe game is actually very fun, however the playing with strangers has a ton of problems. For some reason, there is no timer with players (especially when placing the car back in the pile), however the computer will randomly decide to play my cards. This happens a lot after the person in front of me exploded. This needs to be fixed or else the game is not enjoyable. Will change my review when this happens. Also, please allow AI play to be with more than one AI..Version: 1.0.2

When a player goes afk the game is stuckNo timer in place. Only way to fix is to leave the game and start another. Very frustrating! Should be an easy fix! I guess Netflix has bigger priorities like not going bust for now.Version: 1.0.2

Good Game💣🐈After playing enough games to be able to hold my own and go back and forth with the computer in the “play with yourself” mode, I’ve noticed an annoying inconsistency. If you pull an exploding kitten card and you have a diffuse card, your supposed to be able to put the exploding kitten anywhere in the deck. This includes ontop. In game flow, the next person would proceed. The first persons turn was over when they drew a card- happened to be an exploding kitten. On more than one occasion I’ve had the game tell me I still had to draw a card after diffusing..Version: 1.0.2

Fun game. Troubleshooting AppGreat fun game but comes with its troubleshoots. App Freeze, crash, delays are pretty common for this game..Version: 1.0.2

Buggy logicEnjoyable game however the game logic is buggy. Fake shuffle, shuffled the cards for see the future. However it drew in the original order. Additionally, I’ve seen a behaviour where a player can get skipped without having a in game reason or timeout..Version: 1.0.2

TimeThere needs to be a 30 second time limit for each player. Maybe 1 minute. I was playing the online game with random people and had to leave one game because a person didn’t play their turn for 5 minutes and got into another one and the same thing happened. It’s a fun game but bugs in the app need to be worked out..Version: 1.0.2

Why?! 😭So when I first played this game I fell in love, but for some reason whenever I’m playing a match with more than one player it would say the match isn’t valid anymore. It this only me?.Version: 1.0.2

Crashes when trying to launch.Can’t play the game it crashes when trying to launch it..Version: 1.0.2

Unnecessarily slow and clunkyI find the animation sequences slow down game play and create a lag. I’ve experienced the computer taking my turn for me because the previous play blew up and the screen announcing how many cards are left and then the animated cat waving flags to announce my turn take up all my time. Additionally, it seems like the lobby is very hit or miss. Sometimes I get placed as soon as I enter, other times I’m there for over 60 seconds despite the lobby being filled with potential players. I do like the new radar and flip flop cards though, but not enough to make up for the frustration of watching the computer waste my cards.Version: 1.0.2

Game lacks basic quality of life featuresNo turn timers makes this into a game of who is the biggest baby. Don’t like that someone just stacked the 4th attack against you? Simply walk away and screw over the entire table. Frustrate them into quitting and you will win by default..Version: 1.0.2

Fix requiredYup on a Nope that is blocking a steal freezes game.Version: 1.0.2

Official game is better than NetflixI’ve been playing this game for years since it first came out. I had to say the official game is 1000 times better easier controls the only feature I wish they would add is microphone. Everything else is fine on the original game. I highly do not recommend the Netflix spin off. Pay a few bucks and get the real thing the official game is worth it and it has expansions..Version: 1.0.2

Good idea, bad executionI was playing against the bots and noticed every time they stole a card, it would be my defuse. Also it is extremely hard to put an exploding kitten anywhere other than the top. One more thing is I was trying to nope someone’s action and it made me draw a card from the pile..Version: 1.0.2

No timerThe game is fun and all but a turn timer is needed, there are people who go afk and we have no way to play for the next 15 minutes until we eventually just leave.Version: 1.0.2

Would be great, if the bugs were fixedFun game, except for when it randomly draws cards for you, or prevents you from drawing cards, or plays cards for you, or won’t let you play cards. Also the “play again” button and the “leave game” button both make you leave game and have to host a new game to keep playing with friends..Version: 1.0.2

Good game, but buggyThere’s a lot of glitches. Sometimes you play a defuse or skip to avoid a exploding kitten (not lose), but it doesn’t work and you die. But it’s nice that’s it free..Version: 1.0.2

Fun, but one issueIf a player gets an exploding kitten and uses the diffuser, the have them option to make the game end by deciding not to put the card back in the deck. All of the players will stay in the game for a few minutes before the connection gets lost and you get sent to the lobby. It ruins the game for everyone because of a sore loser..Version: 1.0.2

Great fun, but improvements needed.The game has no sound at all, no background, no FX’s, completely mute. iPhone XR / iOS 15.6.Version: 1.0.2

Fun game. Terrible decision.I’m having a blast playing this game online with strangers. Until someone decides to just put their phone down. There is NO TIMEOUT so someone can just gridlock the game until everyone leaves. I can’t believe this wasn’t addressed in development..Version: 1.0.2

Improvements neededI love this game but there needs to be a timer for each go. If you “leave” the game, the other players are not informed and it is just left as that person’s turn indefinitely. People leave when they aren’t doing well so they don’t put the exploding kitten back in the deck or have their go, it needs to be done automatically after a timer (say 1 minute). Also random cards get played for me without me clicking on them. I thought maybe it was a one-off glitch but it happens nearly every game..Version: 1.0.2

GlitchyThis game literally makes it IMPOSSIBLE to win because it glitches so much! It will automatically go for you when you have multiple options. I employed a seagull to tell me where the next bomb was and it said “second card” so I pick up a card and it’s the bomb. It would be so fun if it weren’t for all the glitches.Version: 1.0.2

Buggy but a good gameA card gets locked sometimes not because of diarrhea but just in a buggy way, it doesn't register when I win the easy bot to move me to the medium and advance bots, the game freezes when you nope a nope.Version: 1.0.2

Not very goodSo many terrible issues here. There sometimes seems to be a time limit and sometimes there isn’t. Somebody can just sit there for minutes without playing a card but sometimes it automatically plays a card for me. Makes no sense..Version: 1.0.2

Game plays itself?!Why on EARTH does the game keep playing my cards for me? And not even just when there are no other cards I could play? Completely ruins an otherwise excellent game. The entire fun of this game is the build up of drama, so for the computer to suddenly take over and play a rubbish card spoils the whole mood. Fix this IMMEDIATELY..Version: 1.0.2

Fun, one major flawThe single person and with friends is fine, but online is awful because people get unlimited time to play a move.Version: 1.0.2
