About the game
You run a burger shop on planets across the galaxy. Customers come up with orders, and you grill the patties, stack the toppings, fry the sides and pour the drinks. You can follow the recipes or invent your own. The normal shifts have no time limit, so you cook at your own pace. Extra modes add timers and impatient customers if you want more rush.
Up to eight players share one kitchen, online or over a local network. You split the jobs, so one of you takes the grill, another the fryer and a third the counter. Everyone can pick a cursor color to tell players apart. Windows and Mac players can join the same session.
It is a gentle game for friends and family. The normal shifts are slow enough to talk while you cook, and mistakes cost very little. As you earn money and stars you unlock new planets, ingredients and kitchen gear.
