Thunderkick has taken the potato out of the kitchen and dropped it straight into a cartoon warzone. Hot Potato Battleground is the sequel to 2023’s Hot Potato, replacing the original city setting with trenches, turrets, snipers and enough explosions to make the food fight look genuinely dangerous.
The familiar cluster wins and position multipliers are still at the centre, but this time there is much more happening around them. Different Exploding Wilds tear through the board, support features can drop additional Wilds or improve symbols, and even a nuclear button can double the entire Multiplier Grid. It is unmistakably Hot Potato, just considerably more chaotic.
