Burger Shop

Burger Shop is one of those games that surprised me in a simple way. It is not life changing and it is definitely similar to a lot of other cooking or serving style games, but it still manages to be fun and satisfying when you just want something fast and easy to focus on. There is no actual cooking in it, but the game still brings the same pressure as a cooking game. You are juggling orders, bouncing between stations and trying to keep up as things speed up. It pushes your hand eye coordination and short term memory without feeling overwhelming. The variety is probably the best part. You get burgers, breakfast items, drinks, ice cream, dinner foods, and each thing only takes a couple steps to build. It moves fast, which is the whole point. It never feels slow or dragged out, but it also never becomes so complicated that it turns stressful. I like that every customer is a little character with their own habits and preferences. You start to recognize them after a while which helps you move a bit quicker, but not enough to make everything predictable. There is still that little rush when someone walks in and you already know they are about to order half the menu. The auto serve robot is a nice touch. You save it for the annoying order, drop it at the right moment and keep going. It adds a small layer of planning without turning the game into something it is not. One thing I noticed is how smooth the ingredient system is. When you need something, the machine just pops it out at the right moment. You almost never miss ingredients because the game makes it easy to stay in the flow. The little comic style story cutscenes in between levels are cute. Nothing deep, but a fun extra. Overall, Burger Shop is a simple, fast paced game that scratches the same itch as other food building games. It is easy to get into, it moves quickly, and it is something you can pick up when you want a light, quick game to keep your brain moving.

yes. recommended. altho some gamer now not really know this game.

play this casually and it's a fun and relaxing game to spend leftover time try to perfect it and you'll want to distance yourself from everything that can do harm to you

Very fun, played this when I was little with my mom and got it for myself now :)

Good game, have played through again (still own the physical disk)
