Fun for most ages!
Great family game for most ages. Took it with us when visiting family, ages 16-75 all had a lot of fun. It was easy to learn and quick rounds to keep everyone’s attention going while also easily being able to pop in and out of games.

Fun to play on game nights
I’m always looking for new games to play on game night. Easy to play. I did have to read the directions a few times to completely understand the rules, but eventually got it. Great for all ages

Fun game
This took a bit to learn the game but you catch on as you play. It was a very fun family game. It’s nice that several players can play at once

New game to bring to your game nights!
The game was easy to learn and fun to play. I like the time it takes to play, and can easily be extended or shortened depending on how long you want to play. I tried this game with 2 different groups and it was a hit with both! One group was more animated and we laughed alot! The second group was a little too focused on the strategy and was quieter. So it’s what you make of it. The cards seem of average quality for paper cards, but I cannot yet comment on the durability of the cards. The instructions have a QR code so that multiple people may read the instructions at once. Minus 1 star because the package sucks as a card holder, and cards get caught coming out after the wrap is removed. Better storage would receive 5 stars.

A Must Have for Family Game Night!
Super fun game! We play this with the kids for family game night and it keeps everyone entertained! Highly recommend! What is nice is that adults can use strategy… but that doesn’t guarantee a win! It gives the kids a fair chance!

Great Family Game
I am always looking for more games that the family can play. Openly admit that my 9 yo grandson caught on quicker than the adult friends we play with on Game Night. It is simple and you learn quickly that there is a strategy. I would recommend this game def 9+ and up to the Old Folks. 🙂

Great game for families
The game was a bit of a challenge to figure out just by reading the directions, but after playing a few rounds we really enjoyed it.

I heard about this game from a review I was reading on Boardgamegeek about another card game I like, it sounded really fun and right up my alley so I was quick to buy a copy. Would have preferred to buy the German version “6 nimmt” because I think the design is better plus I like supporting the original, but this “Beat The Heat” re-print by Hasbro still looks nice and it plays the exact same. Such a shame this game is hard to find in stores, it really is a blast yet so few people even know it exists.I would also like to add that this game is definitely strategic, not just all luck like I’ve seen some people declare. We’ve actually tested several games of 6 nimmt where I play strategically and everyone else just randomly plays a card each round, I will win by a complete landslide by the time the game is over.Love it, 10/10.

My husband and I are enjoying this game! It is an American version of the German game 6 Nimmt. I think the artwork on this version is nicer, and the instructions are in English 🙂 If you need help on how to play the game you can watch YouTube videos of game play on the 6 Nimmt Game, it is played exactly the same, other than that the other game uses Bull heads, and for this one you count chili peppers. It is easy to learn, and game play is quick (for 2 players). I can see this being more challenging with 3-4 players. We will be taking this on vacation with us!
