That's the twist of the 75 Hunger Games because it's A Quater Quell that they have to go in again.
"on the 75th anniversary as a reminder to the rebels that even the strongest among them cannot overcome the power of the capitol, the male and female tributes will be reaped from their existing pool of victors"

She had to play because it was the third quarter quell. The rules for it were that they had to pick from the victors. So, Katniss being the only girl victor from district 12, she had to participate.
In the film we see President Snow talking to the head Gamemaker and he states The Hunger Games needs a victor so people have hope in it. Instead of them just killing 24 teenagers he says they need hope- not just to die.
Hope that helped.
If you win the Hunger Games, you get to live in the victor village (mansions where victors stay) in your district, you are rich and you have plenty of food to eat, and you do not have to enter your name more times to be in the hunger games. This may seem good, but the capitol will most likely hurt you, or take advantage of you after you win. Hope that answers your question!!
Well, the adventure is about the country of Panem, and there was 13 districts in Panem. In District 12, a poor district, there lives Katniss Everdeen, and Peeta Mellark. In a time of history for Panem, ( called the Dark Days ) the Capitol destroyed District 13. The Capitol says that it will never happen again, and so came The Hunger Games, where each district offers up one boy and one girl to compete. Katniss and Peeta are chosen for District 12. The Hunger Games is a fight to the death in an area made by the gamemakers. there are 24 tributes ages raging 12-18. The story tells how Katniss tries to survive and win the Hunger Games. Please read it!! I have and it is very good!
Well, she got threatened by President Snow, went on the victors' tour, was forced to compete again in the third Quarter Quell, became a rebel against the Capitol, fell in love with Peeta, became a refugee in District 13 after District 12 was destroyed, stormed the Capitol, took over the Capitol and settled down with Peeta.
In the first book or in Catching Fire? In The Hunger Games, her little sister, Prim, is drawn from the reaping, and so she took her place.In Catching Fire, there's a change in the games. It's the 75th Hunger Games, and each quarter, they pull out a drawing, of what will make the Hunger Games worse this year. For instance, when Haymitch was in one of the "Quarter Quarrels" (atleast I think they're called that. Something like that) they used twice as many tributes. So 2 boys and 2 girls from each district. This year.....President Snow pulls out the most horrifying thing ever, The Tributes that will be pulled out....will all be Victors from the past games. And there is only one girl who has won for District 12. And that just so happens to be Katniss.
Omg. Literally just read this again today and I forgot what it exactly said, but I think they have to give the food they harvest to the Capitol.
