Hot Seat: The Confession Game - Help & FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I play Hot Seat?
Hot Seat is a pass-the-phone social confession game for 2 or more players. Each turn, a "Never Have I Ever" style card is shown. If you've done it, own it — tap your name and lose points. If you haven't, you're safe and keep your score. The last player with points wins!
What are the different card tiers?
Cards come in five tiers: Clean (3 points), Risky (6 points), Dirty (10 points), Savage (15 points), and Dare (5-15 points). Higher tiers have spicier prompts but cost more points if you confess.
What is Chaos Mode?
Chaos Mode adds strategic power-ups to the game, including Block, Reverse, Double Down, All In, Spotlight, and Confession Swap. These add an extra layer of strategy and fun to each round.
How do I add custom cards?
On the setup screen before starting a game, you can tap "Add Custom Card" to create your own confession or dare cards. Choose a tier for your custom card and it will be shuffled into the deck.
Are there ads in the app?
The app includes a banner ad at the bottom of the menu. You can also watch a rewarded video ad to unlock bonus rounds. Ads are served by Google AdMob.
What is the timer mode?
Timer mode adds a countdown to each turn (15, 30, 45, or 60 seconds). When the timer runs out, your turn is automatically confirmed. You can enable this on the setup screen before starting a game.
How do streaks work?
If you pass (don't confess) on consecutive turns, you build a streak. At 3 consecutive passes you earn a +2 point bonus, and at 5 consecutive passes you earn a +5 point bonus. Confessing resets your streak.
