From the makers of Exploding Kittens comes Throw Throw Burrito. It’s a card game that is quite civilized until one of the players picks up a foam burrito and throws it at another player.

It is the fourth card game from former video game maker Elan Lee and digital cartoonist Matt Inman, the creator of The Oatmeal. The family-friendly game has blown past its $10,000 Kickstarter goal in a day and reached $820,000 with 29 days to go in the crowdfunding campaign.
