The game uses a fixed-screen platform view. As Peter Pepper, the player moves across platforms and ladders to step on burger ingredients, causing each piece to fall one level at a time until it lands on the plate and completes the burger. Enemies chase the player across the stage, and contact costs a life. Pepper can throw pepper to stun enemies briefly, making timing, positioning, and route planning essential for survival and level progression.

Characters
Peter Pepper
The chef protagonist controlled by the player, responsible for dropping ingredients and completing burgers.
Mr. Hot Dog
One of the main pursuers, aggressive and constantly closing in on the player.
Mr. Pickle
One of the main pursuers, often helping to trap the player with other enemies.
Mr. Egg
One of the main pursuers, whose movement patterns make escape routes trickier.
Strategy
Try to clear an entire row of ingredients in one run so you do not get trapped backtracking. Save pepper for emergencies instead of using it on every enemy encounter. Lure enemies under ingredients before stepping on them, because dropping a burger piece on an enemy can pin them down and create safe openings. Learning ladder placement and enemy paths makes later stages much more manageable.
