HSC Season 2 Week 11: Burgertime

Recommended Posts

The object of the game is for Peter Pepper to assemble four giant burgers without colliding with any pursuing hot dogs, eggs or pickles (who appear in later stages). Peter Pepper has to climb up ladders and walk across ramps to get to each of the burger fixings which include buns, beef patties, lettuce leaves and sometimes tomato slices and cheese slices.

 

Peter Pepper has to walk across each of the burger fixings, so they will fall downward to the each of the lower ramps until they reach each of the plates below at the bottom of the screen. He must assemble all four burgers to advance to the next stage. As the hot dogs, eggs and pickles pursue him, he can stop them three different ways. He can throw a pinch of pepper on them to stun them and make them temporarily harmless, but his pinches of pepper are limited, so he will have to use it wisely. Additional pinches of pepper can be gained by getting bonus items the will occasionally appear on the screen temporarily including ice cream cones, french fries and cups of coffee.

 

Another way Peter Pepper can stop his pursuers is by crushing them with one of the burger fixings. He does this by dropping it onto them whenever they walk under it. The third way to stop them is by dropping them on one of the burger fixings whenever they walk onto it, this will also allow each of the burger fixings to fall two, three or four floors more depending on how many of them are on it. However the pursuers are put out of action, they will continue to walk around in each stage until all the burgers have been completely assembled.

Here are a few pointers to help you 'cook up' some higher scores. (Excuse the bad pun! :D)

 

-Remember that if you drop an ingredient with an enemy on it, it falls two floors instead of one. This can be utilized to your advantage.

 

-The bonus items that give you extra pepper have a pattern it seems. For the first level, for every four ingredients you drop onto the 'platters' (for want of a better term) you'll get an ice cream cone. On the second level it appears to go up to five. I'm not sure if it keeps going like this, but it's just good to remember.

 

-Try to pepper the enemies when they're close together, and remember that the pepper still lingers for a second after it's used, meaning an enemy can run into it.
