Coffee Rush Grab & Go

1-6 players

Coffee Rush: Grab & Go is a speedy, travel-friendly spin on the hit game Coffee Rush, keeping the same order-fulfilling tension but stripping it down for fast, portable play. Players race in real time to grab ingredient cards from a shared stock, complete drink orders before rivals, and keep customers happy. At the start, each player has two open orders to fulfil.

The first player to complete five orders ends the round, and revenue is tallied. Flawless drinks earn full value, while...
