📖 About This Game
Welcome to "On The Rocks" cocktail lounge, where the city's best mixologists expertly prepare cocktails that the patrons are craving.
In this competitive bartending game, players complete cocktails for money and additional tips. But beware of rival mixologists removing and spilling ingredients from your cocktails.
Players will select 3 or 4 cocktail recipes to prepare and serve in each of the three rounds. Roll the dice to draft your ingredient marbles from the shaker bag. Place the marbles in the centralized mixing area jiggers one at a time clockwise, then select one bowl. Fill up your cocktails with those ingredients, collecting a tip card for every completed drink.
The first player to complete all three rounds of orders will proclaim "Last Call." Players score their completed drinks and tips earned, with an additional tip for completing all orders. Whomever has the most money wins!
On the Rocks is a marble drafting, cocktail recipe fulfillment game for 1-4 players. It is NOT a drinking game.
