    The crux of Hot Potato stays the same throughout – clear a path and increase your score. And this simplicity makes it an incredibly fun game to play.

    It's definitely not "Tetris," and I'd rank games like "Bust-a-Move" higher in addictiveness, but BAM really picked a good title when it decided to publish this game.

    Very different from the shooters or puzzle games that you're used to playing, it's also quite entertaining.

    Both challenging and addicting.

    For youngsters or avid puzzle fans, Hot Potato! is a refreshing title with crisp graphics and addictive gameplay.

    Simple gameplay, but like all good games of this genre, it’s oh-so frustrating at times.

    The main problem with Hot Potato! is that it lacks something crucial to any puzzle game: it's simply not addictive.
