Coffee Rush

Players take the role of competing baristas trying to fill a stream of customer orders during a busy shift. Each turn, players move on an ingredient board to gather beans, milk, flavorings and other components needed to complete order cards and raise their rating. Unfulfilled orders turn into penalty cards that reduce a player’s rating, while completing three orders unlocks an upgrade that makes ingredient acquisition easier. The session ends when the order deck is exhausted or a player accumulates five penalties; the highest rating determines the winner.

    Componentes de lujo y una mecánica que hace aguas por todos lados, habilidades descompensadas unas de otras y la suerte de que te toquen los pedidos acorde con lo que vayas cogiendo. MAL, MUY MAL!!! ASI NO, CONSULTADME LA PROXIMA VEZ!! Podía haber salido un juego guapísimo y no esto!!

Rules questions

Answered from the rulebook by Ludoya's rules assistant.

Can I use more than one Rush Token on my turn to move extra spaces?

Yes — each Rush Token lets you move one extra cell and take the Ingredient Token you land on, and you may use any number of Rush Tokens on your turn; used Rush Tokens are returned to the Supply Area (page 3).

Am I allowed to pass through the same ingredient cell more than once or finish on my starting cell?

Yes — you can pass through the same cell several times on your turn and even end your turn on the cell you started on (page 3).

If I put ingredients into a cup and change my mind, can I move those tokens between cups or take them back?

You cannot transfer Ingredient Tokens that are already in a cup to another cup, but you may return any unwanted Ingredient Tokens you gained that turn to the Supply Area and you may empty any number of cups (discarding their contents) on your turn (page 3).

What if my cup doesn't exactly match the Order Card when I try to complete it?

If the cup's contents do not match the Order Card, the Order cannot be completed and you must return both the cup and the Order Card to where they were before the order was marked ready (page 3).

Who has to take cards when someone completes multiple orders (Too Many Orders)?

The two players to the left of the active player must each take the same number of Order Cards that were just completed and place them on their tab 1, with the player immediately left taking all required cards before the next player does (page 3).

How do I activate an Upgrade and when does it start working?

At the beginning of your turn you may discard 3 completed Order Cards to flip an Upgrade Tile face up; the upgrade is active immediately, stays active for the rest of the game, and upgrade effects stack (page 4).
