My Verdict

I think that the Hot Knots Bondage Game is a great game for those looking to dip their toes into bondage play, or those like me, spicing things up in the bedroom. The cards are definitely spicier than some of the other sex games I’ve tried, as they include a lot of mild bondage play, power play ideas, and spanking, but they are still pretty beginner-friendly. I even showed the cards to my bestie, who isn’t very into bondage play, but she liked quite a few of them and decided to take a picture of them and try it with her partner! I like that the game comes with everything needed for the game and that the ideas are very different from each other so that everyone can find something that they will be excited to try.

Personal Experience

My Personal Experiences with Lovehoney Hot Knots Bondage Game

I am usually not the biggest fan of sex games, as the ones I’ve tried were a bit too vanilla for me, and sometimes they would make me feel a bit awkward, or they wouldn’t align with my preferences or the mood I was in. I much prefer adding some spicy ideas to the board games we already own, especially if I have to save myself from losing! I decided to go for the Lovehoney Hot Knots Bondage Game because I’ve gathered quite a bondage gear collection and was looking for inspiration on how to incorporate bondage more into my routine. I didn’t expect much from the game, but to be honest, it turned out pretty useful!

More Than a Bondage Game

For my partner and me, the Lovehoney Hot Knots Bondage Game turned out to be a cool inspiration for foreplay and a hot conversation starter. We didn’t play by the rules when we opened them with my partner. We read them out loud together, which turned into a longer conversation about our fantasies, so we chose some of our favorites that spiked our interest as inspiration for our next session. Once we decided to use some of the cards we liked, we found the ideas were sexy, adventurous, and pretty creative. The ideas weren’t anything I wasn’t familiar with before, but sometimes you just go with the flow and forget about experimenting in bed, so I am happy that the Hot Knots Game reminded me of our fantasies. We had a lot of fun playing the Hot Knots game, but I would say reaching for a sex game can feel a bit awkward at first, so putting aside the cards that we both knew are would enjoy first was definitely helpful.

Design

The Lovehoney Hot Knots is a simple deck of cards that contain various scenarios that include bondage play, spanking, or power play. The rules are super easy to understand, but what I like about this game is that it allows for a lot of creativity. You can use the cards for inspiration only or create your own set of rules. I also appreciate that the game isn’t designed with only straight couples in mind, and it can be used by everyone.

Ease of Use

I like games for couples that don’t have strict rules for gameplay. I also appreciate when there is room for freedom and player creativity, and I feel that the Lovehoney Hot Knots Bondage Game delivered on this one. The instructions that were added are incredibly easy to understand, and the design of the game allows you to add any rules as you please, or just go rogue like me and use the game as a bank full of kinky ideas you reach for whenever you are in mood. Since this is a bondage game, I would say that the cards are much kinkier than regular couples' games, but it’s nothing too crazy. This game is perfect if you are comfortable with engaging in bondage play or spanking with your partner from time to time and you are open to experimentation.

Quality

Lovehoney Hot Knots Bondage Game Quality

I think the Lovehoney Hot Knots Bondage Game is very decent. It doesn’t feel like a cheap novelty sex game; the cards have a nice simple design, but they feel and look very nice. The added blindfold and restraints aren’t the most luxurious, but they are comfortable and easy to use for game purposes.

Price

Lovehoney Hot Knots Bondage Game Price

In my opinion, the price of the Lovehoney Hot Knots Game is reasonable. The ideas on the cards are interesting and fun to experiment with. The added blindfold and the 2 satin ties aren’t the most luxurious items, but I think they are a nice touch, especially if you don’t own anything that could be used for the game.

Performance

I didn’t expect to like a sex game, but it actually gave me some fun bondage session ideas that I will be exploring for quite some time. The games I’ve tried before were much more precise and focused on choosing the sex position or a specific activity for you, and this one is more creative in my opinion. The ideas are pretty simple, seductive, and quite spicy, but not in a too obvious or cringy way. I like to reach for them whenever I am in my adventurous mood and want to add something different to my play without thinking too hard. I even came up with the idea of picking a few cards and placing them in the right order to create a longer scenario for our bondage session.

Packaging
