So what exactly is EK?
On the surface we may play games during working hours, wear cat suits, throw the occasional burrito, work out of cat buttholes but we're SO MUCH MORE! Here at Exploding Kittens, we aren't just making entertaining games. We are making the people you're playing with entertaining (and that includes our super freaking funny coworkers)! Think of it as your own spin on magic. Our games are quite simple to learn but they create hours of fun with the strange twists our wacky brains come up with. We have over 30 games in the market but honestly, the people hard at work here are pretty wonderful. Every single one of us is dedicated to creating these opportunities for all of you in our products to carry through the ages.
Our team has grown so much over the past few years, with what started as two people meeting on an island doodling on playing cards for the original Exploding Kittens game (Fun Fact: originally named Bomb Squad, yeah we like the new name better too) quickly moved from Elan's garage to our very own office space in Los Angeles. We have an incredible group of people that help our projects come to life, so stick around, take a look at what we're up to. In terms of our games, we hope you find your match, with over 30 different personality games to choose from - we hope that you'll bring us for the ride to your next game night. Though if you REALLY like what you see and seeking a a job opportunity, you'll find a careers page somewhere around here...

This vision is shared by us and obvious in the products we put out. The pride we have working alongside the talented people that make up EK is what sets us apart.
