outdated

really cool but i can't upgrade

Please let me upgrade

Iโ€™m on iPhone mini 12 why canโ€™t I upgrade and play the game?!?

Educational

I really love this game, combines fun with lots of learning !
I would find it useful if there were โ€œroundsโ€ between learning new recipes of serving different drinks to learn them faster rather having to practice each one individually. Basically a game mode like the survival mode but with the recipe book.

Really

I was getting into the game itโ€™s fun and then it tells me to pay or I canโ€™t play.

Horrible donโ€™t recommend getting it

Iโ€™m sorry but when I make a drink USING the recipe book the I never move on to the next person it just tells me to look at the recipe literally it was a screwdriver and I used Vodka,orange juice, and ice and it said to look at the recipe ๐Ÿ™„
