Game overview

Make Smoothies treats the drink and its container as two separate creative jobs. First you blend the smoothie itself from the fruit and extras on hand, then you decorate it, and the cup gets the same attention with straws and stickers of your choosing. Since nothing is timed or graded, the game is really a presentation exercise: the same blend can be served a dozen different ways.

This title is best suited to players who enjoy free-form drink making and presentation.
