The creators of the hugely popular Exploding Kittens card game have once again taken to Kickstarter to launch their new game, which is described as the world’s first “dodgeball card game”.
Collect cards. Play your hand. Throw things at your friends. To learn more about the new card game from the creators of Exploding Kittens, which has already raised over $660,000 thanks to over 13,000 backers with still 29 days remaining, watch the promotional video below.
Gameplay Mechanics
“Throw Throw Burrito is what you get when you cross a card game with dodgeball. Try to collect matching sets of cards faster than your opponents while simultaneously ducking, dodging, and throwing squishy airborne burritos. The cards you collect earn points, but getting hit by flying burritos loses them. So clear some space and put away the antiques, because you’ve never played a card game quite like this before.”
The game is designed for 2-6 players and typically takes about 15 minutes to play, making it a quick and engaging activity for family game nights or casual gatherings. The game includes 120 cards, 7 tokens, and 2 foam burritos. Players draw and discard cards to create matching sets, but the real excitement begins when burrito cards are drawn, triggering a burrito duel, brawl, or war. In these mini-games, players must throw the foam burritos at each other, adding a physical and hilarious element to the traditional card game format.
Community and Reception
The game has garnered significant attention and praise from the gaming community. Early reviews highlight its unique blend of physical activity and strategic card play. Many backers have expressed their excitement about the game’s potential to bring people together in a fun and interactive way. The creators have also been praised for their innovative approach to game design, building on the success of Exploding Kittens while introducing new and exciting elements.
