Burger Time is an action game released in 1987 for the Nintendo NES. The main objective is to assemble giant burgers by walking over the ingredients, such as buns, lettuce, and patties, which then drop down onto lower platforms. Players must complete the burgers while avoiding enemy food characters like pickles, eggs, and sausages.
The game features a moderately paced challenge where timing and strategic movement are key to avoiding enemies. A unique mechanic involves using pepper to temporarily stun pursuing adversaries, allowing the player to navigate the maze-like levels more safely. The vertical platform design requires careful planning to ensure all ingredients are stacked properly without being caught.
What sets Burger Time apart is its unusual concept of combining food assembly with platform action. The distinctive blend of culinary-themed enemies and the objective of building burgers provides a memorable and quirky gameplay experience not commonly found in action games of its era.
