Play Burger Burger Pocket (Japan) Online

Burger Burger Pocket is a Japan exclusive Game Boy Color release from 2000, developed by KID and published by Imagineer. It arrived late in the handheld's life, a time when developers were still squeezing every last bit of charm out of the hardware. It fits right in with other quirky, single concept games that found a home on the platform.

You control a chef from a top down view, managing a small kitchen with a grill, a prep station, and a serving window. The main objective is to fulfill customer orders as they appear, grilling patties to the correct doneness, adding toppings like lettuce and tomato, and serving the completed burgers before the timer runs out. Key mechanics include managing multiple orders simultaneously and timing your flips to avoid burning the meat. The pacing is frantic but manageable, with difficulty that steadily increases as you progress through the stages. It feels like a satisfying, if slightly stressful, test of your multitasking skills.
