Overview

Potato Inferno is a fast paced game of passing the hot seat! Players take turns using fun and unique potatoes to try and survive the rising heat levels! Shuffle the deck and deal 3 cards to each player. Then flip the top card of the deck to determine the starting "heat level". Everyone will then take turns adding to the heat level, announcing the new heat level, and drawing a new card. The heat level must never go over 100. When all of a player's cards would take them over the heat level limit, they can't play and are "burned", thus eliminating the from the game. But players can use condiments to cool down the heat, topping for various advantages, and cutlery to attack opponents. The game ends when all but one player has been eliminated.
