## Description
Grab your apron and get ready, because Bubble Overflow is throwing you straight into the chaos of a busy bubble tea shop! In this fast-paced card game, you'll step into the shoes of a busy barista trying to keep up with an endless stream of thirsty customers. Your mission is simple: deliver orders faster than your competitors to avoid a massive backlog. Each order card features a specific drink flavor and the number of beverages requested. Sounds easy, right? Well, the real challenge lies in your tactical moves! On your turn, you can either play a valid order card or draw a new one. To play a card, you must follow one of two rules: play a card with the same number of drinks but a different flavor, or keep the same flavor but follow the drink quantity sequence (1 → 2 → 3 → 1). The pace is intense, and special effect cards add extra tension, forcing you to adapt as the flow of orders constantly shifts. A round ends as soon as one player empties their hand, but don't celebrate too early! Any cards left in your hand count as penalty points based on the number of drinks shown on them. After a number of rounds equal to the number of players, the barista with the fewest penalty points wins! It's a light, visually engaging, and perfect quick-play experience that blends visual recognition, hand management, and clever sequencing, making it ideal for families and casual gamers alike.
