Received mine in NYC. Some people in Australia and the UK also.
Reinaldo 2015-08-02T22:06:59-04:00
I'm waiting for mine to get to the courier on Miami, and they will be here on Venezuela in a week! I can't wait for them to get here! >_<
Elizabeth Compton 2015-08-02T22:14:38-04:00
Got mine in PA yesterday! But my special surprise isn't working! :( it did for a few hours but now nothing....
Eric Lawson 2015-08-02T22:16:42-04:00
Got mine in Sydney Australia today. Love the special surprise.
David Guidry "Doc" 2015-08-02T22:18:08-04:00
I'm in Iowa .... Kittens hate Iowa apparently... Should arrive wed .... So long from now
Brad Dodds 2015-08-02T22:24:21-04:00
Got my copy 8/1/15, and introduced my gaming group to it. After almost 3 hours of explosions and nopes verdict is loved. I will be introducing my local gaming shop to it soon. Thank you for all of the enjoyment!
Arrived in Wollongong, Australia. Love it. Thank you!
Jacqui Macgregor-Pahl 2015-08-02T23:05:31-04:00
Yay! Got to work this morning to find an e-mail saying that my kittens had shipped.
Then at lunchtime the package arrived. Thank you so much!
The secret surprise was surprising (and awesome) and the shipping note was hilarious.
I know what I'm doing tonight. :)
Alex Hooi Kuan Wai 2015-08-02T23:05:39-04:00
anyone from Malaysia received it yet *gosh damn cant wait excited level*
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-02T23:13:01-04:00
@Creeper: Not everyone. Did you hear about the guy who accidentally left his on top of a car and they got smashed by another car?
Art Garceau 2015-08-02T23:22:40-04:00
Blackbox didn't tape the shipping box closed. I received an empty box. Anyone else not get their game due the strange reason of not taping a box shut?
Chris Guerin 2015-08-02T23:30:35-04:00
Just arrived in Sydney, Australia. Love the surprise inside :)

Anyone in Canada get it yet?
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-02T23:50:53-04:00
Doc, I'm in Bhumfuq, Nebraska and got mine saturday after shipping through Iowa. They shipped randomly though, so don't feel left out, they'll be there by Tues.
`
LZ, I'm outbidding Doc. And I won't just leave them on a shelf, though I'd love them and pet them and call them George, making sure if anyone smudged or even *gasp* tore one, eye for an eye.
I wanted to playtest, but wasn't able to, but really want a deck, so if any Consuls out there still have an extra and are willing to sell, I'll be there for you
These five words I swear to you
When you breathe I want to be the air for you
I'll be there for you
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-02T23:52:27-04:00
Hey, LZ, speaking of comments today, that last one was my fourth EKLOL! I'm gonna getcha! I'm gonna getcha! Boo!
Brodie Todd 2015-08-02T23:59:32-04:00
I just found a bomb in the post in Taranaki, New Zealand ... oh wait it was just a kitten... an EXPLODING KITTEN :D
Looks great, can't wait to play it looks like it should be a lot of laughs :)
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-03T00:00:30-04:00

Thanks for the awesome work again guys, my own set of EK (+NSFW) also arrived today in Sydney, Australia. Next time I'll remember not to open my goodies while on a conference call and unmuted.. that cat sure made an impression :)
JGO 2015-08-03T00:52:01-04:00
Game rocked up! Sydney, Australia woot woot!
Mekon 2015-08-03T00:58:32-04:00
Another Sydney delivery here - thanks! :)
Also, the "secret surprise" got a chuckle out of me. And the customised thank-you note was unexpected, great work.
Edwin Zhang 2015-08-03T01:19:17-04:00
Arrived in Seattle! Thanks guys!
James Psaila 2015-08-03T01:27:53-04:00

What is this bullhonky! I didn't have to wait two months after the announcement that shipping had to get my products (Australia)?! Great flaming kittens! Do they travel at light speed? You guys and Blackbox are fantastic!
Melanie 2015-08-03T02:38:11-04:00
OMG! Delivered in a few days to Sydney, AUS and my little kitty heart exploded! A few questioning glances from my co-workers when I opened the box...cue jealous murmurs. prrrrrrrrr
Delivered to NZ over the weekend, shockingly fast... :)
Andrei Rand Roldan 2015-08-03T03:16:05-04:00
Got mine today!!!! :) :) :)
Thanks @explodingkittens!!!!
(Wish I could post a photo of the boxes in the box!)

Pretty stoked to have this in hand, but I believe we were promised 2x Hairy Boob Dragons....
Saul Herman 2015-08-03T06:04:32-04:00
Just received mine today (Sydney, Australia). So excited! Awesome packaging, can't wait to give the game a go. Amazing work guys, would definitely sponsor again!
P.S. Best thank you not ever.
Richard (Anthrax)Anderson 2015-08-03T07:05:07-04:00
Just got home from holiday to find this little beauty waiting for me. I'm probably waaaaay behind everyone else from the UK at this point, but still... this thing looks immense and I can't wait to get the chaps over to help unleash the hilarity! =^-^=
P.S. Kudos on the choice of "surprise" in the box - I was not expecting that!
Jeff Frisch 2015-08-03T07:16:15-04:00
Arrived in Luxembourg today ! I love it ;-)
Peter Gillespie 2015-08-03T07:23:11-04:00
I have them at last, I was so excited to see them. And so quick (Brisbane Australia ) have a barbeque coming up soon. Going to have 1 or 2 drinks well ok a lots more that, we are going attempt to play the game blind rotation drunk. But I'm sure we will have a lot of fun
Batmann Leong 2015-08-03T07:59:54-04:00
I woke up to a coffee and my fiancee telling me I had a parcel, the invoice was amazing xD
Jon B, manager, Emporia of Valoria 2015-08-03T08:39:23-04:00
That was one cool package. You guys displayed an amazing amount of organization in getting this project done, and always (as far as we can tell) with smiles on your faces. You should be proud of yourselves. My daughter is very excited to play the game on our upcoming vacation, so you are making it onto the packing list!
Dan Gump 2015-08-03T08:40:29-04:00
Great game. My only wish at this point is that I would have ordered another set to go in my box. Any ideas on when this will be available via retail?
Chris Parker 2015-08-03T08:44:49-04:00
Best packaging ever!!!
Glen Smith 2015-08-03T08:52:23-04:00
Dan, Don't feel bad, I ordered regular decks and NSFW decks, expecting them to be in the same box. The EK team over delivered and sent a box for each deck I ordered. I gotta believe that they have expansion packs in mind already.
Took the game to a graduation party and after a few false starts and interruptions, it was a big hit. Many requests of "How can I buy a deck?"
Speedy 2015-08-03T08:55:41-04:00
Great surprise in the box ;) Love my new card game "EK"…
Kim Miller 2015-08-03T09:18:22-04:00
I love my kittens! And the surprise... so awesome! Just one suggestion - maybe seal the shipping box? Anyone could have opened it and kidnapped my kittens. Fortunately, no one did, but I really don't trust humanity in general. Thank you thank you for a wonderfully twisted start to my Monday!
Uzu 2015-08-03T09:36:57-04:00
Love my new game and like that the surprise inside. Great job!
William 2015-08-03T09:47:26-04:00
Sitting here at the office in Johannesburg, South Africa, says it should be here by 6pm tonight, and I really hope it is! The suspense is killing me!
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-03T09:49:34-04:00
@Dan: You can sign up on www.explodingkittens.com to receive an email notification when the game becomes available for purchase.
The Salmon of Knowledge 2015-08-03T10:04:40-04:00
So happy to finally have my kittens! But the secret surprise in my box isn't working! Sad kittens abound. Perhaps its secrets are too secret for me!
Akash Mankar 2015-08-03T10:04:44-04:00
@Lord Zombitten:
Akash here again. As you advised I reached out over the weekend.
I haven't heard back from support@explodingkittens.com as yet.
Also since I never received the survey I'm assuming, they don't have my shipping address or other details. Is there a number I can call at?
Mathew Bell 2015-08-03T10:19:03-04:00
I am very upset with you. My wife wouldn't have sex with me last night because I beat her four times in a row in your game. What do you plan to do about this?
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-03T10:20:09-04:00
Akash, I'm unaware of any number you can call. I asked them what the best way to contact them is, and their answer was email. They are probably getting a ton of emails, though, so it could take a little while to get through them all. It wouldn't surprise me if they don't check them on the weekend, since there are only five of them and everybody needs a couple days of per week. I'm sorry you're having religies. I hope it all works out for you. Be sure to check all tabs and folders, just to be on the safe side.
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-03T10:22:35-04:00
@Salmon: Tacocat likes the sun. Try opening your box where it is brighter, and see if that fixes things. ;) For most people, that does the trick!
The Salmon of Knowledge 2015-08-03T10:41:43-04:00
@Lord Zombitten Much appreciations for the advice. I assumed that Tacocat, like me, enjoys the dark recesses of the human soul. And my parents' basement. We'll venture out this afternoon for an experiment!
YAY! It's a holiday here in Alberta...wait...I don't get the holiday and am stuck at work....BOOOOOO! On a side note, Canada Post picked up my package from the distribution center in Toronto at about 6pm on Friday...so I should have it tomorrow, or Wednesday at the latest.
Jared Brown 2015-08-03T10:46:14-04:00
Got mine! Can't wait to play this later today..
Lord Zombitten 2015-08-03T10:49:02-04:00
@GM: Huzzah!
eGeeked 2015-08-03T10:49:44-04:00
Happy and Sad all at once. I ordered 2 and one is perfect the others surprise is defective :(
@eGeeked: Well, at least one of them is working. I will definitely need to find out if each of the ones I ordered is working(before I hand them out to people who ordered through me).
Matt King 2015-08-03T10:59:17-04:00

Christophe P 2015-08-03T11:51:09-04:00
Hi,
I m a backer based in Paris France, any idea when the shipping will happen ? I did not see or receive yet any confirmation email.
Thanks ..
Melissa 2015-08-03T12:02:49-04:00
Woot woot! Mine is out for delivery. Let's see if I have the same issue as most people and not being taped shut.
Joao Jesus 2015-08-03T12:06:28-04:00
Just got my decks. Awesome :D
Opening the box was indeed a surprise ;)
NICK FORLIZZI 2015-08-03T12:12:23-04:00
What an awesome game! Great Job to all involved!
Katherine Profeta 2015-08-03T12:20:28-04:00
Hi all - it seems that a lot of us have received the incorrect shipping label. I've sent an email to support and haven't yet heard back.
Another backer and I (Jessica Ashleigh C.) have decided to mail the packing slips we received to their rightful owners in hopes that people will do the same for us :)
@Katherine: I will definitely be doing the same if I get someone else's. Hopefully whoever ends up with mine(if they do, still haven't gotten my package to know anyways), will do the same and send it along it's merry way.
IdConstantine 2015-08-03T12:47:07-04:00
Got mine in MN. And as I'm seeing I'm not the only one receiving a shipping box that wasn't taped shut... serious shipping WTF?
Trey Moravits 2015-08-03T12:47:44-04:00
just received ...Ty ... y'all did an awesome job ... the attention to detail is amazing ... I smile each and every time I open the box.
IdConstantine 2015-08-03T13:18:55-04:00
Double checked and redouble checked and everything is in order. This is the only Invoice I think I shall keep forever... love it! Will have to see how the non-exploding cats at home react to the opening of the box :D Ty.
Derek "BullKitten" Toro 2015-08-03T13:23:19-04:00
Yet another failed kickstarter
Travis Jensen 2015-08-03T13:51:00-04:00
I received my package over the weekend. My kids got a kick out of the surprise in the box. :) Thanks for the great campaign!!
Scott S. 2015-08-03T13:52:50-04:00
Just received my EK's. How cool and I haven't even played the game. I'm impressed at how fast you all took care of business and got us our games, especially considering the number of orders!!!
The personalized insert is really cute.
You really hit a home run with not only the success of the campaign but what you actually delivered.
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-03T13:59:51-04:00
The only 'problem' that I have with the game is that my wife and kids opened it before I could, and she started playing the 'alternate' deck and they (8 years old) were laughing at the 'bad' words and wife was left to answer/explain!
Karma for ya!
Eric 'Trinkets&Nopes' Baumgarten 2015-08-03T14:26:25-04:00
@LZ, @GM, going as good as can be expected.
Working during holiday, @GM? That sucks.
Paul Long Jr 2015-08-03T14:29:35-04:00
After a hand off from Fedex to the USPS over the weekend, it's saying delivery today for mine and tracking shows it in my town, so hopefully, I'll be playing it tonight.
Ryan 2015-08-03T14:32:59-04:00
Received on Saturday. I played almost 2 dozen games with my kids the rest of the weekend. We love it! Looking forward to game night with my friends to break out the NSFW deck.
Joaquin 2015-08-03T14:36:50-04:00
I have received the package today and everything is awesome!!! I totally laughed at the invoice print details. Pretty original idea! I will treasure it forever!
I was surprised that the package was not taped shut and worried that anyone could have opened it and took something, but look like everything is there. Please tell Blackbox to tape the package for tamper-proof. Just saying!
Other than that I am loving those cards! Great job Exploding Kittens Team! I will definitely look forward for the next crazy original ideas from you guys!
@Trinkets: Yeah, working on the holiday. With MAYBE 15 people in the office, out of the normal 30-35. So it is rather quiet around here today.
Gina Keesal 2015-08-03T14:42:23-04:00
Still haven't received mine yet, it was handed off to USPS on Friday. No delivery updates from them since. I'm worried since everyone else in my town seems to have received theirs already.
I emailed blackbox support, still no reply.
David Guidry "Doc" 2015-08-03T14:47:14-04:00
.... My kittens have been sitting in Kansas since 12am Friday morning.....
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-03T14:54:38-04:00
That sucks Doc. Wait'll you hear I'm outbidding you for the extra playtest deck!
DETASSELING IS OVER! DING DONG THE WITCH IS DEAD! https://www.youtube.com/watch… I can finally rest in peace, not pieces. Now I can finally just melt into the couches for good, sleep until 10+am and go to sleep at 1+ am... good times!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-03T14:54:56-04:00
No end of the year pizza though. :(
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-08-03T14:56:10-04:00
Dangit, LZ, no sense in prolonging the inevitable! Stop your jibber-jabbering, crowd surfing, and advice giving so I can catch up to you and defeat you handily in comment-to-comment combat!
Got the email from Blackbox that my shipping "will happen"...but no tracking. Anyone near NJ got it yet?
I know some people in NY have gotten theirs
Received mine in NYC. Some people in Australia and the UK also.
I'm waiting for mine to get to the courier on Miami, and they will be here on Venezuela in a week! I can't wait for them to get here! >_<
Got mine in PA yesterday! But my special surprise isn't working! :( it did for a few hours but now nothing....
Got mine in Sydney Australia today. Love the special surprise.

I love my kittens! And the surprise... so awesome! Just one suggestion - maybe seal the shipping box? Anyone could have opened it and kidnapped my kittens. Fortunately, no one did, but I really don't trust humanity in general. Thank you thank you for a wonderfully twisted start to my Monday!
Love my new game and like that the surprise inside. Great job!
Sitting here at the office in Johannesburg, South Africa, says it should be here by 6pm tonight, and I really hope it is! The suspense is killing me!
@Dan: You can sign up on www.explodingkittens.com to receive an email notification when the game becomes available for purchase.
So happy to finally have my kittens! But the secret surprise in my box isn't working! Sad kittens abound. Perhaps its secrets are too secret for me!
@Lord Zombitten:
Akash here again. As you advised I reached out over the weekend.
I haven't heard back from support@explodingkittens.com as yet.
Also since I never received the survey I'm assuming, they don't have my shipping address or other details. Is there a number I can call at?
I am very upset with you. My wife wouldn't have sex with me last night because I beat her four times in a row in your game. What do you plan to do about this?
Akash, I'm unaware of any number you can call. I asked them what the best way to contact them is, and their answer was email. They are probably getting a ton of emails, though, so it could take a little while to get through them all. It wouldn't surprise me if they don't check them on the weekend, since there are only five of them and everybody needs a couple days of per week. I'm sorry you're having religies. I hope it all works out for you. Be sure to check all tabs and folders, just to be on the safe side.
@Salmon: Tacocat likes the sun. Try opening your box where it is brighter, and see if that fixes things. ;) For most people, that does the trick!
@Lord Zombitten Much appreciations for the advice. I assumed that Tacocat, like me, enjoys the dark recesses of the human soul. And my parents' basement. We'll venture out this afternoon for an experiment!
YAY! It's a holiday here in Alberta...wait...I don't get the holiday and am stuck at work....BOOOOOO! On a side note, Canada Post picked up my package from the distribution center in Toronto at about 6pm on Friday...so I should have it tomorrow, or Wednesday at the latest.
Got mine! Can't wait to play this later today..
@GM: Huzzah!
Happy and Sad all at once. I ordered 2 and one is perfect the others surprise is defective :(
@eGeeked: Well, at least one of them is working. I will definitely need to find out if each of the ones I ordered is working(before I hand them out to people who ordered through me).
Help! Missed the survey email since it went to my spam folder....how can i get my backer rewards???
OThe following is direct from the EK team:

I got my decks this weekend and can't stop laughing long enough to play! Thanks for the awesomeness of the exploding kittens!
Hi,
I m a backer based in Paris France, any idea when the shipping will happen ? I did not see or receive yet any confirmation email.
Thanks ..
Woot woot! Mine is out for delivery. Let's see if I have the same issue as most people and not being taped shut.
Just got my decks. Awesome :D
Opening the box was indeed a surprise ;)
What an awesome game! Great Job to all involved!
Hi all - it seems that a lot of us have received the incorrect shipping label. I've sent an email to support and haven't yet heard back.
Another backer and I (Jessica Ashleigh C.) have decided to mail the packing slips we received to their rightful owners in hopes that people will do the same for us :)
@Katherine: I will definitely be doing the same if I get someone else's. Hopefully whoever ends up with mine(if they do, still haven't gotten my package to know anyways), will do the same and send it along it's merry way.
Got mine in MN. And as I'm seeing I'm not the only one receiving a shipping box that wasn't taped shut... serious shipping WTF?
just received ...Ty ... y'all did an awesome job ... the attention to detail is amazing ... I smile each and every time I open the box.
Double checked and redouble checked and everything is in order. This is the only Invoice I think I shall keep forever... love it! Will have to see how the non-exploding cats at home react to the opening of the box :D Ty.
Yet another failed kickstarter
I received my package over the weekend. My kids got a kick out of the surprise in the box. :) Thanks for the great campaign!!
Just received my EK's. How cool and I haven't even played the game. I'm impressed at how fast you all took care of business and got us our games, especially considering the number of orders!!!
The personalized insert is really cute.
You really hit a home run with not only the success of the campaign but what you actually delivered.
Greetings fellow Corps members!
Hello, Trinkets!
Hi Trinkets. How's it going?
Elan is online. Will I be getting the email soon?
The only 'problem' that I have with the game is that my wife and kids opened it before I could, and she started playing the 'alternate' deck and they (8 years old) were laughing at the 'bad' words and wife was left to answer/explain!
Karma for ya!
@LZ, @GM, going as good as can be expected.
Working during holiday, @GM? That sucks.
After a hand off from Fedex to the USPS over the weekend, it's saying delivery today for mine and tracking shows it in my town, so hopefully, I'll be playing it tonight.
Received on Saturday. I played almost 2 dozen games with my kids the rest of the weekend. We love it! Looking forward to game night with my friends to break out the NSFW deck.
I have received the package today and everything is awesome!!! I totally laughed at the invoice print details. Pretty original idea! I will treasure it forever!
I was surprised that the package was not taped shut and worried that anyone could have opened it and took something, but look like everything is there. Please tell Blackbox to tape the package for tamper-proof. Just saying!
Other than that I am loving those cards! Great job Exploding Kittens Team! I will definitely look forward for the next crazy original ideas from you guys!
I got my red swingline today!
@Trinkets: Yeah, working on the holiday. With MAYBE 15 people in the office, out of the normal 30-35. So it is rather quiet around here today.
Still haven't received mine yet, it was handed off to USPS on Friday. No delivery updates from them since. I'm worried since everyone else in my town seems to have received theirs already.
I emailed blackbox support, still no reply.
.... My kittens have been sitting in Kansas since 12am Friday morning.....
That sucks Doc. Wait'll you hear I'm outbidding you for the extra playtest deck!
DETASSELING IS OVER! DING DONG THE WITCH IS DEAD! https://www.youtube.com/watch…
I can finally rest in peace, not pieces. Now I can finally just melt into the couches for good, sleep until 10+am and go to sleep at 1+ am... good times!
No end of the year pizza though. :(
Dangit, LZ, no sense in prolonging the inevitable! Stop your jibber-jabbering, crowd surfing, and advice giving so I can catch up to you and defeat you handily in comment-to-comment combat!
