BurgerTime World Tour
SCORE: 79
BurgerTime World Tour is one of those
video games I am so glad to see. There is so much deep history in the
video game industry. It is great to see a developer give an older
franchise an update. BurgerTime World Tour is in some ways a
re-imagining of the original BurgerTime. The core of the game is the
same, but so many modern innovations have been brought to the franchise.
The core of BurgerTime has always been a good one. Players build burgers
by running over the giant pieces to have them fall to the next level
below. Eventually the player has built the hamburger, and can move on to
the next level. BurgerTime World Tour does not bore players to tears
with just that though. There are many enemies who will try and get into
your way. One touch and you lose a life.
Things can be picked up and thrown at them, or pepper can be used to
disable them.
I love it when a game provides me with a non-violent choice. The whole
pepper disability makes me smile. Imagine someone coming after you, and
you throw pepper at them. They start sneezing so you can get past them.
Too many developers have forgotten about things like this after spending
so many years on murder simulators.
The graphics are okay in BurgerTime World Tour. They are not the best on
the Xbox 360, but they are also not the worst.
In some ways BurgerTime World Tour looks more like a Wii game to me. Yes
Family Friendly Gaming was provided the download code for the Xbox 360.
There is some visual humor to this game as the player's chef is in
competition with another cook.
The music in BurgerTime World Tour makes me think of fun. Which is
needed because BurgerTime World Tour can become difficult. The farther
you go the more burgers you have to make. The creators of BurgerTime
World Tour are amazing at how they designed the levels. Some are easy to
traverse, whereas others take a lot of effort to get to a certain spot.
There are fifty levels in the four challenging worlds of BurgerTime
World Tour. Please note the Wii version only has thirty levels. So if
you want the full effect and have multiple systems you will want to
check it out on the PS3 or Xbox 360. Expect a challenge too. BurgerTime
World Tour is not one of those games that you will walk right on
through. It will challenge you, and after only a few levels.
I enjoyed playing BurgerTime World Tour. I never felt like the computer
was cheating, or it was too difficult. I felt like I could do it next
time. I also appreciated how it kept my progress after losing a life.
That was until I got the GAME OVER screen. I appreciate how players are
allowed a non-violent choice in the game play.
It was an honor for me to play and review BurgerTime World Tour. This
downloadable game pays homage to the past, and brings it to the present.
If you enjoyed BurgerTime years ago, then you should check this game
out. If you like games that are ultimately large mazes of cat and mouse,
then you should check out BurgerTime World Tour. I hope to see MonkeyPaw
Games bring more older titles up to the modern gaming era.
