More about this game
Your goal is to meet a daily cash quota by serving coffee to a steady line of customers. You must drag the correct cup size to the prep mat, add the requested ingredients like cream or ice, and hand it to the matching customer. As days pass, the quota increases, shift time decreases, and orders become more complex. A run ends when your shift timer hits zero and you haven't earned enough money to meet the quota.
Tips
- Serve customers quickly while their patience bar is above 55% to earn a $2 speed tip on top of the base pay.
- Prioritize Worker customers when possible, as they provide a $4 bonus to your earnings compared to Teens or Regulars.
- If you make a mistake, immediately drag the wrong cup to the clear bin so you don't waste time serving a rejected order.
Questions
How do I know what a customer wants?
Each customer displays their order requirements below their character, including the cup size and any specific ingredients like coffee, cream, sugar, or ice.
What happens if a customer's patience runs out?
If the patience bar empties, the customer leaves and you miss out on their payment, making it harder to reach your daily cash quota before time runs out.
How does the difficulty increase?
Each day, the cash quota increases by $18, the shift timer decreases by 3 seconds, and customers are more likely to order multiple extra ingredients.
