From the makers of Exploding Kittens, Power Hungry Pets is the strategy game for people who hate strategy games. It’s a simple game of backstabbing and betrayal played one card at a time. 

In Power Hungry Pets, each card has a number and a savage way to mess with the other players. On each turn, you will decide which card you keep to protect yourself and which card to play to backstab, steal, or obliterate the other players. 

What's In the Box?

Power Hungry Pets comes with:

  • 21 Cards.
  • 7 Tokens 

Plus, one instruction manual that you will probably skim.

Avery Z. ★★★★★

I'm not a strategy game person at all, but this one hooked me in under five minutes — the backstabbing is just so easy to get into, and every round goes by fast enough that you'll want another one immediately. Even my friend who usually zones out during board games was fully plotting by the second h

Leo T. ★★★★★

The one-card-at-a-time mechanic makes it dangerously easy to convince yourself you're winning right up until your "allies" turn on you. Perfect for a quick 20-minute round that somehow always ends in someone getting dramatically betrayed.

Matthew ★★★★★

We’ve played it three nights in a row now, and the whole “one card at a time” pacing makes it perfect for people who zone out during long board games. My favorite part is how quickly a friendly round turns into everyone silently plotting against each other.
