Description

Players compete to serve as many customer orders as possible and earn the most tips by the end of the night. Sound simple? Well, with each passing round, unserved customers will get frustrated waiting for their food and become unhappy with the service. And in turn, they'll give smaller tips when they do get served. Continue to ignore them, and they will walk out of the cafe. And if that wasn't enough, players will be competing for those much-needed menu items. However, with a smidge of strategy, a dash of tactics, and a pinch of luck, one player will be crowned the most legendary server!

 1. Collect Food Prepared by your own Kraken Chef!

 2. Complete Orders for cryptid customers from all around the world.

 3. Earn the Most Tips and be crowned the most legendary server.
