Coffee Roaster

I love the theme and have a lot.of fun pushing my luck on roasting just one more time. There's enough special abilities to let you tweak the final roast. The box has a super nifty sorter for all the pieces which makes it super simple to get the game out and play.

Perfect solo bag building game with fun but challenging decisions. Bonus if you also are a coffee connoisseur. 😊

Fun puzzle to solve, with variable difficulty. You have to be ok with randomness though.

Nice! At this point I’ve played about 10 games, and I would have to say this is turning into my go to short solo play. Here are the things I liked; Quick set up and tear down Relaxing game flow Good decision points Adjustable difficulty And what I didn’t like; The rule book No rules aid card The only other thing is that if you like to fiddle with the tokens, they do get a bit gunky and start to stick together. If you’re new to solo gaming, this is a great starting place, as the time commitment is low and there’s plenty of replayability. If you’re a veteran solo gamer and you’ve been hesitant to pick this up, I’d say just go for it. The price is a bit high, but well worth it for the amount of times you’ll get this to the table. Love it!

Very nice to chill out and play for an hour. The theme really comes through, e.g. raising the temperature and boiling off moisture. The cup test is always tense and satisfying, in different ways each time. Essentially, the game is powered by randomness, and every tool at your disposal is used to mitigate poor luck (immediate effects, flavor effects, and cup effects). The more you use, the more agency you will have over your final score. You can roast a single cup in about 10-15m, or follow the provided instructions to roast three cups in about 45m. I personally like to roast three, but instead of using the game's provided table for choices, roast 1 each of easy/medium/expert to standardize my end game scores.

I love this game. It was on my wish list for ever. Way to learn hard to master.

Great bag building game. This game gives me a very zen feeling when I need to relax. Rule book isn't the best but not too hard to google a playthrough or how to play vid. Definitely staying in my collection.

A fun game. Easy to set up. Rules are rather easy to learn. A good game to play if you don't have much time but still want to play something.

Great solo game.
