# Number of "Nope"-cards played after each other in Exploding Kittens

(Asked by: username_0 on 2023-12-28)

How many "Nope"-cards can be played after each "Nope"-card?

E.g.:

* Player A -> Attack
* Player B -> Nope
* Player C -> Nope
* Player D -> Nope

or can only 2 "Nope"-cards be played after each other?

Is there a limit?

From the rules of the basic game: "Stop any action except for an Exloding Kitten or a Defuse". Therefor as many as you like, since the Nope card is not mentioned in the exceptions.

There is **no restrictions** on how many "Nope"-cards that can be played after each other.

From the [Exploding Kittens rules](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0345/9180/1483/files/EKG-ORG_Instructions_20OCT23.pdf?v=1698873426):

> NOPE (5 cards)  
> "Stop any action except for an Exploding Kitten or a Defuse.
> It's as if the card beneath a Nope never existed.  
> You can also play a Nope on another Nope to negate it and create a Yup, **and so on.**  
> You can play a Nope at any time before an action has begun, even if it's not your turn...

Your example explained:

> Player A -> Attack  
> Player B -> Nope (the Attack is cancelled)  
> Player C -> Nope (a Yup -> this means the Attack is back on)  
> Player D -> Nope (the Attack is cancelled again)
