Mix Master
Behind the counter, every order is a recipe ratio — pour the right proportions, reduce to simplest form, then scale the batch to size.
How to play
Each order asks for a blend in a given ratio. Pour whole units of each ingredient so your mix matches that ratio in simplest form, then scale the whole batch up to the quantity the order needs. Get the proportion right and the serving size right to satisfy the customer; wasted or wrong amounts cost you. Serve order after order against the clock for a high score.
- Match the order's ratio exactly, reduced to simplest form.
- Scale the batch proportionally to reach the required total.
- Avoid waste — extra units pour your score away.
- Serve orders quickly across the service for the best score.
Game modes
- Daily (seeded): the same service for everyone, in Easy, Medium, or Hard.
- Practice (random): fresh services at your chosen difficulty.
Controls
- Desktop: click to pour each ingredient, then Serve; Empty Mixer clears your pour.
- Phone & tablet: tap to pour units and tap Serve to deliver the order.
Tips & strategy
- Reduce the order's ratio first; pouring in simplest form keeps the numbers small and exact.
- Find the scale factor that turns the simplest ratio into the order total, then multiply each part.
- Empty the mixer and restart rather than over-pouring — waste hurts more than lost time.
