The Kitchen Opens Thursday

Burger Smash · published 20 Sep 2026, 15:33 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

The Burger Smash playtest goes live this Thursday the 24th and runs until Sunday the 27th.

Before you jump in, here is something worth knowing.

Most players assume the hardest part is cooking the burgers. It is not.

The hardest part is the decision you make before a single customer arrives, where does everything go? The grill. The prep station. The serving counter. Get it right and orders flow. Get it wrong and you will spend the whole level running in circles while your customers lose patience and walk out.

And then, just when you think you have found your rhythm... a VIP walks in.

Their order is different. Their patience is shorter. And serving them perfectly is the only way to get a full star rating on the level.

You have from Thursday to Sunday to figure it out.
