As the lone protagonist, you receive “Worry” cards that appear in an action queue. Each turn you flip a card and then, in sequence, resolve each revealed worry, reorganizing your tea cards to keep order and calm. The goal? Build the perfect tea sequence, with the focus side up, before time runs out. After eight turns, the brew is ready (or not), and you score points for well‑placed tea cards and focused attention, while losing points for each lingering worry. The game is short, 15 minutes, and works as a mini‑self‑care ritual: a pause to breathe, reflect, and maybe discover you don’t have to be perfect to feel good. The action‑queue mechanic forces strategic thinking, but the simplicity of the cards makes it accessible to anyone looking for a calm moment without complications. If you enjoy light solo card games and themes that talk about well‑being, A Nice Cuppa will become your new favorite ritual. ## FAQ ### How long does a game last?
