Root Beer Tapper
Serve root beer as fast as you can to all the demanding customers. Watch out for the glasses!
Root Beer Tapper originated back in the 1980s as Tapper. The concept of the game remained the same in Root Beer Tapper but with the alcohol focus (Budweiser) replaced with root beer.
Challenge Round
In between levels, there is a mini-game of watching a gentleman shake up each can of root beer except for you. Then shuffles them around, and you have to pick the unshaken one to win the Challenge Round. Reward for getting it correct is extra points, picking the wrong one results in the shaken root beer spraying in the player's face, then the real can is revealed.

Though the co-op is misleading, as the 2 players in the game never see each other's screen or work on screen together. Instead, they are playing the game separately and after each level and challenge round, scores are compared to see who is winning or losing.
