Danger Danger was recently announced as one of the newest card games from Exploding Kittens and it's fast-paced, easy to play and ready to take on the go. In fact, the game is so fast-paced that it takes the form of a one-minute card game. This game challenges players to draw and play cards as fast as they can for 60 seconds, and each card is assigned a certain number of points. Although touted as "dangerously simple," the game comes with a twist—the timer is hidden so that players don't know when the time is up, and if they're still playing once a round has ended, they lose.

“For our new Spring lineup of games, we wanted to offer customers highly engaging, interactive experiences that are also uncomplicated,” said Elan Lee, CEO & Co-Creator of Exploding Kittens.
