About Grillionaire
Grillionaire is a free burger simulator game with a story. Your chef just lost their office job and every last coin. Then Uncle Gus shows up with $3,000 and his secret burger recipe. You buy a rusty old street cart, make it shine, and open for business on a busy city corner. Your dream? To own the big restaurant across the street.
Every burger is made by hand. Drag a patty onto the grill and tap to flip it when it turns golden, but don't let it burn. Drag on the bun, stack the lettuce, cheese and tomato in the right order, and squirt on the sauce by moving the bottle over the burger. Then drag the finished burger right into your customer's hands.
Perfect burgers earn big tips. Level up to unlock new toppings like bacon, fried egg and pineapple, and spend your money on a bigger grill, a tip jar, string lights and a neon sign. Grillionaire runs in your browser on phones, tablets and computers, and saves your progress automatically.
