Hot Pot Holic (2024)

About this game

It's time to dive into the delicious world of Hot Pot Holic, the trick-taking game as tasty as tricky! The pot is bubbling - can you scoop up your favorite ingredients before the other players do? Enjoy this drooling game with friends and family, but beware of overeating! Hot Pot Holic is a trick-taking game. Each round players can either take cards from the table to their plate or "swallow" their cards to the stomach to score points — the number of cards they can take or swallow depends on their turn order of that round. Managing your turn order is tricky but crucial to victory!

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 2.0/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
