Available exclusively for Netflix members. Bring the catnip. Draw as many cards as you can, and do your best to dodge — or defuse — fatal felines. Or else, boom goes the dynamite! In this multiplayer, kitty-powered game of chance, players draw cards — until someone draws an exploding kitten and blows up. Then that player is out unless they have a defuse card. Defuse cards allow players to neutralize furry foes with laser pointers, belly rubs, catnip sandwiches or other diversions. All of the other cards in the deck can be used strategically to move, mitigate or avoid. Featuring original art by The Oatmeal.

Race with a collection that is truly yours. Slipstream CIRCUIT is a turn-based racing TCG where your collection becomes your racing strategy. Start with four free base decks, unlock upgrade cards across four tech trees with career points, and build a legal 15-card deck by freely mixing cards from your collection. Every custom deck changes how you approach the circuit. Every turn is a tactical choice: • Pick your gear and commit cards for speed • Read the corners and decide how much heat to risk • Use upgrades, braking and slipstream at the right moment • Recover, redraw and shape the next lap Build your card collection: • Discover TCG-style upgrade cards with distinct effects • Build, name, duplicate and edit custom racing decks • Mix cards from all four starter archetypes into your own setup • Unlock chassis and color liveries as you race • Carry your deck decisions into four-race championship seasons This is card collecting with a racing payoff: the cards you unlock become the choices you make on track. Every circuit is a 3D diorama with its own scenery and weather on the track. Pan, pinch, turn and tilt the map to read the next corner before you commit your cards. Race solo against AI, pass the device around for local hot-seat play, or create asynchronous online matches with join codes. Local races work without an account. Start free with the USA circuit, a guided first race and a complete starter collection. Race Tracks Vol. 1 unlocks three additional circuits and championship play. Build your collection, tune your deck, and outthink the next corner.
