Hot Pot Rush

Hot Pot Rush is a running game with a kitchen theme rather than a cooking game, and it is worth saying so plainly: nothing is prepared and nothing is served to order.

You slide a pot along a track, picking up more pots and the ingredients scattered down it, and the haul you arrive with is what the customers at the end get. Cabbage, mushrooms and chicken thighs are the pickups, with spicy and tomato broths as the two kinds of pot.

What stands between you and a good run is the obstacle course. Spikes and traps knock the pots out of your hands, and anything you lose is paid for by nobody, so the game is about threading the lane rather than filling it.

How to play Hot Pot Rush

Slide, collect, dodge, serve

  • Hold the pot and slide left or right between the lanes.
  • Pick up the extra pots as they come, since more pots means more to sell.
  • Gather the cabbage, the mushrooms and the meat along the way.
  • Steer clear of the spikes and traps: whatever they take is gone.
  • Reach the end and serve the customers with whatever you still have.

Controls

Hold and slide with the mouse, or drag with a finger on a phone. There is one axis and nothing else to press.

Tips and strategy

Take the lane with the clearest run rather than the one with the most pickups, because losing a loaded pot costs more than missing a few ingredients. Build up early, when the track is wide, and play the last stretch safe. The broths do not change the route, so pick whichever you prefer and concentrate on the spikes.
