Customers are lining up at your café, and every one of them wants a drink in their favorite color. Café Jam is a cozy coffee sort puzzle: tap the right customer at the right moment, fill the barista's trays and keep the queue moving. How to play • Tap a customer who has a clear path to the counter. • If their drink is on the tray, they take it and leave happy. • If not, they wait on a stool. When every stool is taken, the café jams! • Think a few moves ahead and serve everyone to clear the level. 100 levels in 10 cafés around the world Play through a Classic Café, a Japanese Tea House, an Istanbul Coffeehouse, a Paris Bistro, a Tropical Beach Café, a Mexican Coffee House, a Nordic Winter Cabin, a Moroccan Tea House, a New York Diner and a Korean Dessert Café. Levels start easy and slowly get trickier, with Hard and Super Hard levels for when you want a real brain teaser. Customers with a twist • Mystery customers hide their order until you clear the way. • VIP customers want two cups. • Locked customers wait until a neighbor is served. • Frozen customers thaw a little each time a neighbor leaves. • Friend groups arrive together and leave together. • Impatient customers count your moves, so don't keep them waiting! Helpful boosters Stuck? Use Undo to take back a move, +1 Stool for extra room, or Shuffle to mix up the drinks in the queue. Decorate your own café Win levels to earn stars, then use them to add rugs, lamps, plants, wall art and more. Every finished café goes into your album.
