BURGERTIME
Cartridge Instructions
(for 1 or 2 players)
for color TV viewing only
copyright 1983 Mattel Electronics
[Screen Shot of typical playing screen.]
Your chef, Peter Pepper, is surrounded! Pickles and hot dogs are
everywhere! Dodge down a ladder, pepper a pickle and you've escaped. They
all chase after you. Run for your life to the next bun. Gobble some fries
along the way and you've got some pepper -- just in case. Lead them on a
chase and the nasties get stuck together. Tiptoe onto a bun and they follow
you in a bunch. Pepper 'em, step off, and drop 'em. WAY TO MOVE! You've
got 8000 points and are one step closer to BURGERTIME.
OBJECT OF THE GAME
Score more points than your opponent while building hamburgers. Avoid
dangerous hot dogs, pickles and eggs. Points are scored for dropping
ingredients and squashing nasties. Maximum point value is received for
giving those foes a ride on a falling bun, patty, tomato, or lettuce leaf.
YOUR CONTROLS
Slide BURGERTIME overlays into the Hand Controller frames, so they cover the
keypads. Insert game in the Computer Console cartridge slot. (See console
owner's instructions for equipment connection details.)
These are the game controls...
[Diagram of a Burgertime Controller.]
All side buttons are for Pepper.
The Disc is used to Move Chef.
USING THE DISC. There are 4 directions in which you can move your chef,
indicated by the arrows on the disc above. Move your chef by pressing the
outside edges of the disc in the direction you want to move.
USING THE SIDE BUTTONS. Pepper is sprinkled using any side button. YOU CAN
MOVE AND SPRINKLE PEPPER AT THE SAME TIME.
GAME START
When game title appears, it is time to decide on your playing speed. For
fastest speed possible press the disc. The 1, 2 and 3 buttons will give you
slower speeds as indicated by the chart. Each speed is indicated by a
different symbol that will appear on the right side of the screen.
Starting Key Speed Symbol on Screen
Press Disc Fastest Dot
Press 1 Fast Two vertical dots
Press 2 Medium Two horizontal dots
Press 3 Slow Dash
CHOOSE 1 or 2 PLAYERS
Once you select playing speed and press the correct key, the computer will
ask you to:
Select 1 or 2 Players
Press Key 1 for a 1-Player game
Press Key 2 for a 2-Player game
Press ENTER and the game will start.
1-PLAYER GAME...Play until all 5 chefs are gone.
2-PLAYER GAME...Player #1 plays until he/she loses 1 chef. Player #2 then
takes over. Each player has 5 chefs. If one player gains extra chefs for
good play, that player may continue after the other player has finished.
GAME STARTS AS SOON AS YOU PRESS ENTER.
THE CHEF
You control the chef. Move him up ladders and across planks using the
direction disc. Move your chef completely across a bun and it drops down
one level. You rack up 50 points. You also rack up 50 points for each
patty, tomato slice, and lettuce leaf that you drop.
You start with 5 chefs, but only one can be used at a time. For every
10,000 points scored, you get an extra chef. The number of chefs you have
waiting are displayed in the lower right corner of the screen.
NASTIES AND MAZES
Hot Dogs, Eggs and Pickles chase your chef wherever he goes in the maze. If
you catch him, the round is over. All the nasties get smarter as you go along.
[Pictures of each of the enemies.]
There are seven mazes constructed of ladders and planks. Some are more
difficult than others. When you successfully build all the hamburgers in
one maze, you move on to the next maze. When all seven mazes have been
completed, you start over again with the first maze -- only at a more
difficult level. Your current level is displayed after you lose your chef.
[Picture of completed burgers.]
FOR MORE POINTS DROP the ingredients ON TOP of the nasties. You will get
100 points for each one you squash. Squashed nasties come back to life from
either side of the screen.
[Picture of three hot dogs getting squashed, yielding 500 points.]
FOR EVEN MORE POINTS
Tempt the nasties out onto a bun and then drop it by stepping off. The bun
will drop TWO levels. The more nasties on the bun, the higher the point
value. (See chart.) After a few seconds, dropped nasties return from the
point where they ended their fall.
[Picture of recently squashed hot dogs coming back to life.]
FOR MAXIMUM POINTS Lead the nasties on a chase and get them to meet at
corners. If they meet and head in the same direction (and you're lucky),
they will stick together. Get as many stuck together as you can and give
them a ride on a falling bun or other ingredient. You will score big.
[Picture of two hot dogs and an egg stuck together.]
AND A PINCH OF PEPPER Pepper may be used to temporarily stun nasties if you
are trapped. This tactic allows you to move out of corners unharmed. You
can only throw pepper IN THE DIRECTION YOU ARE MOVING OR LAST MOVED.
[Picture of the chef tossing pepper towards a hot dog.]
You start with 4 pinches of pepper which are displayed in the lower left
corner of the screen. You can earn extra pinches of pepper by gobbling ice
cream, coffee, ketchup, or french fries depending on your level. You get
500 points and a pinch of pepper for each item gobbled. Smart cooks only
use pepper when they need to. That pepper can be very valuable at the upper
levels.
SCORE DISPLAY For one player games, the running score is tallied on the
upper left in yellow. The center score (green) is the highest score
achieved at that game speed.
For two player games, Player #1 has his score displayed on the left, Player
#2 on the right. The score is bright yellow for the player in control of
the chef while the score is tan for the player at rest. Again, the green
score in the center is the highest score.
[Picture of the various score displays at the top of the screen.]
MAXIMUM SCORE
(For Burger-Maniacs Only)
Once you get 1,000,000 points, the scoring begins at zero again. At the end
of each game you will see a number under the center score. This tells you
how many times you have reached 1,000,000. You may reach 1,000,000 a total
of 255 times...for a possible score of 255,999,950. GOOD LUCK!
