I want to see the coffee cup icon inside this button, either above or below the words "Flux Coffee Shop"

I agree that we need _something_ here, because the feature names are all really weird and hard to match up with the images. :)
So, icons are tricky for this because I think that icons in those buttons would be really hard to see (and, cutting them out and making transparent copies of them requires image-editing skills I don't have, oof). I might be able to do that in the long term, but in the meantime there's something a lot simpler I can do: show the green circles highlighting the features they point to, when hovering over the buttons. I'm going to do that for now, and consider icons as a future improvement if we still need this to be clearer.

I think it doesn't need to be very fancy. It's not too hard if you just crop each features out of the game board with a circle. Basically, treat each feature like a user's avatar image. That's what BGA or Google or many other websites do to make "ugly" images that don't have perfect backgrounds look nice enough for displaying anywhere in their page. ;)
I quickly made this for the coffee and the parrot, cropped from some random squares on the game board. I left the background as-is and I think it's good enough and still a very helpful addition.

Heh, not bad, I think I still want real icons though. :) I might have a friend I can ask for help from.
In the meantime, you should have green circle highlighting for the ASK choices now.

Finally done! I got a friend to cut out nice icons for them.
