Description

In the world of Cupcake Empire, the sweet treat is all the rage and it's the perfect time to grow your bakery business. With a small shop to start, your goal is to build a cupcake empire, but you're not alone in your ambition. Competitors are lurking, waiting to outdo you, so you'll need to work efficiently and effectively to come out on top. The game is played with dice that represent your workers, and each turn you'll decide which actions to take, from creating new recipes to serving customers and hiring new staff. As you take these actions, you'll increase your sales and production levels, but be careful to keep them balanced, as your income will only grow by the amount of the marker that's lagging behind. With 45 to 60 minutes of playtime, 2 to 4 players can join in on the fun, using a combination of dice rolling and worker placement to outmaneuver their opponents and build their own cupcake empire.
