About

Space Blends

Read full description

Work closely with a friend to blend smoothies for your local galactic neighborhood. One player handles the counter, taking customer orders and mixing bizarre ingredients into smoothies; while the other takes charge of communicating the recipes they find in Space Blends' top secret recipe book. Only one copy of the game is needed. The recipe book can be viewed for free at recipes.space-blends.com Neither player may look at the other player’s screen, so it is up to the both of you to communicate clearly using the information you have at your disposal. That might mean trying to pronounce cryptic smoothie names; or describing the strange, nameless ingredients needed to make each smoothie. Work your way through progressively harder shifts, or compete in endless mode and see how long your duo lasts. Space Blends is relying on you both to uphold its ‘stellar’ reputation; now get to work!
