    More involved than necessary

    We were excited to play this game because we love word games. You must have 2 teams of at least 2 or more players. It does not state this on the outside of the box, but you need at least 4 people to play. The theming is super cute and you can tell a lot of thought was put into the design. We found the game a bit confusing to understand the levels scoring. My opinion is the scoring could be much easier to follow and not as involved. To make scoring more user friendly would have made this much more fun to play. The object is for one team player to give clues to a clue word and must not use that word to explain it. There is a bell to hit if the opposing team catches you saying the Hot Word while trying to get their team mates to guess the word. The problem is the other team cannot see the words on the cards. We created our own work around for that, when someone draws a card, they look at it and also show each card to the other team, so they can catch them if they mess up. After a few rounds we stopped scoring and just picked cards and tried to get each other to guess the words. So we devised our own version of how to play. We did have a lot of fun though I also own a game called Taboo which is exactly the same premise but simpler to play. I would still recommend because I love word guessing games and it provides a nice amount of cards with 4 words on each card, so there is the opportunity to play many many many games and rounds.
