As Chef Peter Pepper, you must fend off the Food Foes while making perfect burgers! Use pinches of pepper to stun Mr. Hot Dog, Mr. Egg and Mr. Pickle; or lure them onto or under burger buns, lettuce, cheese or tomatoes to escape their clutches! Making the perfect burgers gets progressively tougher though the six screens of BurgerTime.
In BurgerTime, your goal is to guide Peter Pepper and assemble all burgers from the ingredients spread around the stage. Once they are dropped to the lowest level, the burger will be complete.
To drop ingredients to the level below, you will need to walk all of the way across. If another ingredient happens to be directly below, it will also fall down one level.
If a Food Foe is on top of a falling ingredient, they will all fall an extra number of levels. If a Food Foe is below a falling ingredient, they will be crushed. As the game's title implies, timing is essential!
Standing in Peter Pepper's way awaits the Food Foes. They will relentlessly chase you around each stage, forcing you to choose your routes to each ingredient wisely.
Fortunately, you are armed with a bag of pepper. Sprinkling it on a Food Foe will stun them momentarily, allowing you time to sneak past. You begin with 5 uses so apply it wisely.
You won't always have a lot of options for getting around the later stages. With a low supply of Pepper and constant dodging of Food Foes, you may be forced to take costly detours.
Picking up french fries, ice cream cones, and other goodies not only increases your score, but also adds to your supply of Pepper.

BurgerTime
At first glance, BurgerTime looks like another simple arcade game designed to eat your quarters. The six stages repeat endlessly, becoming more difficult every time you complete them all. In this game, timing is crucial — dropping ingredients with Food Foes on top, or beneath, can totally change the situation you are in. This simple mechanic is a great combination of strategic planning and quick reflexes. It often feels like a game of chicken; letting them get just close enough to fall into your trap and give yourself some breathing room.
The real challenge with BurgerTime is that it's an early arcade game that was ported to the NES nearly 5 years after its initial release, at a time when standards had changed. Like many arcade games of its era, the controls aren't very smooth since your character moves in increments. Surprisingly, this can be beneficial, since you will want to be moving the second you step off a ladder. Despite its simple design, BurgerTime has a lot to offer for action fans who are looking for a challenge that requires more than just quick reflexes.
