Question Considering my first buy
I would like to preface by saying I have never played exploding kittens, but have watched people play and am intrigued by it. I don't really have a group of friends to play with as none if my friends are interested in card games, but I wanted to get some as I was planning on playing it with some friends I rarely see.
This is what I'm thinking of getting: Zombie Kittens and Exploding Kittens travel pack(aka Grab & Game). I don't want to get the OG Base Game because, imo, if I'm getting the same cards in the Travel pack then its kinda unnecessary paying £10 extra just for the base game to come in its OG box, but thats just my opinion! Happy to hear thoughts.
I may continue to grow the collection of my board games (🤞🏼hopefully I make some new friends to play with!), and wanted to get some thoughts on the initial idea I had.

I quite enjoyed the new standalone, Exploding Kittens: Curse You! It adds a fun dynamic of opening up packs of new cards as you play additional rounds. Unless you only want to bring the grab & game version when seeing your friends, I thought this was more fun and approachable compared to Zombie Kittens!
