PRESSURE COOKER - Atari 2600 Game

Sounds like lunchtime at "The Grille." Behind the counter, Short-Order Sam normally thrives under pressure. Except today, his automated kitchen is totally out to lunch. In this frantic Activision classic, you control Sam as he races to fill customer orders displayed on the electronic board. Ingredients fly from dispensers on the right—lettuce, cheese, onions, tomatoes, and bun tops. Catch needed ingredients with your belly (head or feet cause them to splat), bounce away unwanted toppings, and assemble burgers moving down the conveyor belt on the left. Once complete, rush to the wrapping room and drop it down the correct color-coded chute. Make a mistake waste ingredients, deliver to the wrong chute, or let a burger fall off the belt and you lose Performance Points. Start with 50. Hit zero, and you're fired. Game over.
