Nitro Glyxerol

This simultaneous action game has players shake lab flasks to guide ingredients into a spout and claim victory-point cards. Short chains can secure cards sooner, while waiting for longer chains risks losing the best rewards to faster rivals.

Nitro Glyxerol is an action game that rewards clever timing over raw dexterity. Each player has a laboratory flask (a 3D labyrinth) full of colorful ingredients (colored cubes). Simultaneously, the players start shaking their flasks in order to navigate the ingredients into the flask's spout in the right order. Each player has to decide though when to stop as smaller ingredient chains can be used to pick up victory point cards before the opponents with longer chains may do so.
