About this game

Welcome to the world's hottest game! Aim for 100 degrees – the first to get there wins and becomes the undisputed champion of the sauna! How to play: In the middle of the table, a sauna board is placed, along with the deck of cards and five dice that have been thrown at the beginning of the round. At the start of the game, all players get six cards each and their own sauna thermometer. To win the game, a player must reach 100 degrees Celsius on their sauna thermometer. To raise the temperature of the sauna, the sauna owner must match the cards in their hand to the dice on the game board. All five cards must have the same symbol as the dice. When the sauna owner has five correct cards, they shout out loud: “ONE, TWO, THREE, SAUNA!” The round then ends immediately. The winner of the round adds 20 degrees to their thermometer, and the next round starts.
