About the Game

Sometimes you want a hippopotamus for Christmas. Only a hippopotamus will do...

Hippo Hero is an 18-card deduction game for 3 or 4 players. You are trying to give each other the best possible Christmas gifts. Each of you secretly has one item that you want more than anything else in the world. You also have one item that would ruin your day.

Each round players will exchange gifts and then (possibly) point to one of the others they'd prefer over the gift in front them.

Once all the gifts have been given, each player will reveal their heart’s desire to determine if this Christmas was merry or just meh.
