Portage of Intellivision's BurgerTime [Model 4549].

You move your chef around the maze in a frantic attempt to build hamburgers before the nasties converge on you. Move across the top of the burger ingredients and they will drop a level. Work all the ingredients to the bottom and you'll move on to the next maze. Score points by dropping an ingredient, squashing nasties, or giving them a ride down on a falling ingredient. Dust a nasty with some pepper and he'll stop in his tracks. If a nasty toches him, your chef is cooked. So watch out! Play alone or challenge a friend. Highest score wins.

UPDATES

Two different versions of this game exists. Later production runs added a choice of difficulty levels using the TV Type switch and fixed a bug that was in the first version.

TIPS AND TRICKS

SAVE PEPPER for the times you need it most. Don't waste it on nasties that are easily avoided.

Try to get the HIGHEST point value for EACH hamburger part that you drop. Try SQUASHING a nasty! Better yet give him a fast ride down on a falling bun!

REMEMBER, your chef STOPS while he peppers a nasty. Don't get blind sided by a marauding bread stick while you're busy peppering a hot dog.

Keep away from the corners after squashing a nasty or giving him a ride. The same nasty could return in that corner and could run right smack into your chef.
