Smoothies is a board game released in 2019 for 1–4 players, 30 minutes per game, and ages 10 and up. It was designed by Isra C. and Shei S. and its main mechanics are Dice Rolling and Paper-and-Pencil.
With your van full of fruit, you set to work making the healthiest and most scrumptious smoothies for your queue of thirsty customers. Throw your fruit (dice) into the blenders (boxes), then choose the tastiest and juiciest combinations. The player who makes the most and the best smoothies wins! In the roll-and-write game Smoothies, you throw all the fruit into the blenders (the dice into the two boxes) and choose the combination from one of them that will work in your favor. You must bear in mind that you can choose only one of the blenders and the fruit that remains in the other will be available to your opponents. You get points for using each fruit a certain number of times, for each client who tastes all the ingredients, and for using more oranges and lemons than the rest of the players. You lose points for each customer who you do not serve and for saturating the blenders. The player who gets the most points at the end of the game will take the victory. ••• Tu furgoneta está repleta de frutas y tus clientes hacen cola para que les prepares los Smoothies más ricos y saludables. Lanza las frutas (dados) en las batidoras y elige la mejor combinación posible. El jugador que consiga más y mejores Smoothies ganará la partida. En este 'roll and write' debes lanzar todos los dados sobre las batidoras (cajas) y elegir la combinación de frutas (dados) que te permita tachar las casillas que mayor beneficio te reporten, siempre teniendo en cuenta que solo puedes elegir una de las batidoras y las frutas que queden en la otra estarán disponibles para tus oponentes. Obtendrás puntos por usar cada fruta un número determinado de veces, por cada cliente que pruebe todos los ingredientes y por usar más naranjas y limones que el resto de jugadores. Perderás puntos por cada cliente que no sirvas y por saturar las batidoras. Aquel jugador que obtenga más puntos al final de la partida se proclamará ganador.
Smoothies supports 1–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Smoothies is 30 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Smoothies for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Smoothies has a complexity rating of 1.7 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
