Bossa Burger is a burger-building roguelite where every ingredient plays a part in the song.
Drop a bun and the bass comes in. Add a patty for guitar comping, cheese for vibraphone, and every veggie and sauce sings the next note of the theme melody. Land it on the beat and a ♪ pops!
- 4 buns = 4 chords: Classic F, Sesame C, Butter Dm, Brioche Gm7. The menu board is a chord progression
- Serve a burger and it rings out top to bottom as an arpeggio, landing on the bass
- Forget an ingredient and you hear a sour note. Add the wrong one and it clashes. You can hear your mistakes
- Order bells, crinkling foil, even the coins are tuned to the current chord

Drag the heel onto the crown, pull the foil up and around, tuck in both sides, then slide it right and down the chute it goes!
Thin foil really folds around the shape of your burger, and the finale stacks up
price × multiplier line by line.
- Stars, combo, memory bonus, customer favorites and crew badges all feed the multiplier
- Right ingredients in the right order: ★★★

Each shift lasts two minutes (11:00 to 14:00). As noon gets closer, the lunch rush floods in.
- 8 customers line up at the counter, each with a favorite ingredient. Add one extra for a bonus
- Regulars, hurried customers, picky customers and VIPs, plus special requests like "no pickles" or "extra cheese"
- Toast buns, pre-cook patties in the UHC cabinet (don't let them go stale), and hold-and-release to grab just the right amount of lettuce or chili sauce
- Rush orders get +0.5 multiplier. Chain good burgers for a combo

The better you know your recipes, the stronger you get. Peek at the recipe card (R) mid-order and that burger loses its memory bonus!

One run = 4 weeks = 4 genres. The recipes and chord progression stay the same; only the arrangement changes, like a remix.

- Week 2 Samba, 104 BPM: surdo, tamborim, cavaquinho, marimba
- Week 3 Disco · French House, 122 BPM: four-on-the-floor kick, octave bass, strings
- Week 4 Breakbeat · Drum & Bass, 172 BPM: two-step breaks, reese bass, bells
The same patty plays guitar in bossa nova, cavaquinho in samba and strings in disco. Even the customers at the counter bob to the beat.
