Hot Plates Review

Hot Plates is a fast paced and fun kitchen-themed family app, with two games to choose from. In the "Classic" mode, watch as plates speed down multiple conveyor belts. Finish these plates off with one of four correct sauces. Lose a life if you top a plate off with the wrong sauce or can't get to a plate in time, and the game is over if you add sauce to a stick of dynamite, mistaking it for a hot dog.

In "Devil Dog" mode, top hot dog plates with ketchup, but avoid the plates with sticks of dynamite. One false move and the game is over, and you lose lives for missed plates as well. Music and sound effects are also included, adding to the experience but can also be easily turned off as well.

I find both of these games fun and enjoyable and really like how easy they are to learn and play. I think they would be great for anyone past the age of 4 or 5, and these are games even adults will find both amusing and challenging. My son at 2.5 years likes to watch me play but is still too young to be able to play by himself for more than a few seconds without the game ending. I am sure that he will have a lot of fun with these games when he is older.
