The Big Squeeze

The Big Squeeze is the board-flipping tableau-builder where you specialize your lemonade stand and curate your menu across two eras. Gameplay starts simple: move your meeple to a different location in town and do its action (gain ingredients, gain recipes, spend ingredients to make lemonade, and sell lemonade). But will you invest your money into upgrades, or stashing for the apocalypse? The core loop builds up fast going into the post-apocalypse world, where now you're not only discovering new wild recipes, but also new character upgrades that unlock your full potential. Rebuild your stand, build a hybrid menu that merges the pre- and post-apocalypse lemonades, and finish bounties across the wasteland to collect fame. Every player has the ingredients for absurd synergies, so it's a race to unleash your combo before anyone else! —description from the designer
