Generate hot takes and put them on trial. The group decides whether each opinion is valid, guilty, or completely unhinged.
Play Hot Take Court Online
Hot Take Court works as a debate game for groups that like arguing about tiny opinions. Draw a hot take, let each side plead its case, then make the room vote.
Use category buttons for fast rounds or enter a custom theme to make the prompts fit your friends, trip, birthday, pregame, date night, or group chat.
