Description
Soda Jerk is set amidst the bustling vibrant American soda fountain era of the 1950s. Each player embodies the spirit of a soda-slinging hero, poised to mix, shake, and serve their way to glory. Armed with personalized decks of cards, Soda Jerks scramble to match symbols and gather the precise ingredients needed to craft the perfect drink, all while racing against their opponents to serve waiting customers promptly.
As the clock ticks down and closing time looms after two rounds, victory awaits the player who has amassed the most coin—a taste sweeter than the finest pop in town!
