Hot House Games debuts latest Sidemen titles, Too Far and Social Ladder

Hot House Games – co-owned by YouTube group the Sidemen – is launching two new party games in Too Far and Social Ladder.

Landing in October, both titles are inspired by games that have already proven popular on the Sideman’s YouTube channels. In Social Ladder, players rank their friends from Most to Least or Best to Worst across a raft of topics, while Too Far sees players judge ‘twisted confessions’.

“The boys only create brands which they personally love,” said Harry North, Brand Manager at Hot House Games.

“Having played hundreds of game shows on their SIDE+ and MoreSidemen channels, they’re finally bringing the fan favourites to life, turning them into card games that you can play at home! Starting with Social Ladder and Too Far, the Sidemen look to create a family of outrageously social games, each with their own unique personality.”

Jordan Schwarzenberger, Co-founder of Arcade Media, the management team of the Sidemen, added: “The Sidemen are best of friends, incredible creators and have been loved by their fans for over 10 years. They regularly beat records for the most viewed videos on the YouTube platform and they love playing games!”

Aaron O’Neill, fellow co-founder of Arcade Media continued: “The new card games, based on their game shows, prove that authenticity and doing what you love creates unparalleled fan engagement. The boys are very excited with the games’ launch.”
