For our teen game night we played Exploding Kittens! Really, who doesn't like kittens and explosions?! The game was easy to learn, easy to explain, and so much fun to play. Each player gets 4 cards, and a diffuse card in their hand to start. Then the remaining diffuse cards, and exploding kitten cards (# players-1) are shuffled into the deck. You can play as many cards as you like on your turn, or none at all, then draw to mark the end of your turn. If you draw an exploding kitten then you die, unless you have a diffuse card. We played by the rules for the first two rounds, then threw the rules to the wind; adding all the exploding kitten cards and shuffling in the diffuse cards instead of starting each player with one. It made the game more suspenseful and more hilarious. I highly recommend this game for teens! We even wrangled in a new player who just couldn't help watching us play. It only takes about 15 minutes to play, so I will keep this on hand from now on to use if we have extra time at the end of programs.
