Hot Potatoes

2–6 players · 20 min · 6+

Hot Potatoes is a fast-paced children's game in which players pass potatoes around and try not to be caught with them when the temperature gets too hot. You roll dice to determine the size of the potato and the direction to pass it, but you can move anyone's potatoes. This gives some small tactical decision-making as the mercury in the thermometer rises.
