Times are tough in Potato Kingdom. Kings of the Tater realm are in the midst of a terrible uprising. The one true Crown now only brings cursed existence to its bearer whilst the starch is still spilled on the slightly acidic PH battlefields.
In Hot Kings up to 5 players are vying for control of the Potato Kingdom. The Crown deals damage to those who wear it, and as each player draws cards which can alter not only their own stature in the realm with a growing Keep of loyal subjects and siege weapons to defend and attack, but also control the Crown and use diplomacy and politics to overcome their opposing Kings.
Will you attempt to build a strong wall of Tater people and hope your adversaries destroy each other, or will you play the unpredictable manic King and warp the battlefield turn by turn in this frantic, push your luck game of potato elimination.
Games are quick and easy to learn, and fit into any family or friend gathering as a party game to see who is really on your side.
It's hot potato like you've never played!
