Hello flavor-mongers!
If you had the pleasure of tuning in to Frosty Games Fest this morning, you may have noticed a cheeky few ingredients we’ve never shown before. 👀 (And if you missed it, you can catch the showcase here!)
Cooking beyond the classics
Burger Bois would hardly be a game of flavor experimentation if all you had to play with were bacon cheeseburger ingredients. We love bacon and cheese - but burgers can be so much more! Introducing:
Live your sweet and spicy breakfast burger dreams with Waffle Buns, Kimchi, and Sriracha Sauce.
Make an “oops, all purple” burger with Radicchio and Sliced Radish! (Dibs-not on taste-testing this one…)
Break your customers’ banks with a Dark Chocolate and Shaved Truffles bougie burger.
With heaps more ingredients to come, all this burger potential is just the start. 😌
How we choose ingredients
The only hard rule we have is it has to be a real ingredient (sorry, no Unicorn Steak Sandwiches). We have a couple of thought starters to help us choose:
What flavor and property profiles are missing from the game?
What ingredient categories do we need more of?
What would be weird and wonderful?
What would people be excited to see on socials?
What might suit the theme of a particular parking spot?
This time around, we wanted to add bitter, spicy, and unusual ingredients! (We can already hear PAX AUS players rejoicing at having more spicy options. 🌶️)
We also aaaaalmost ended up with Sauerkraut too, but this time around it lost to our need for protein with a Fish Fillet Patty.
Sorry Finn.
What’ve you got a hankering for?
Think back to the most exciting burger you’ve ever had. What made it different? How did it taste? And can you tell us what it was so we can put in our game? 👁️🫦👁️
What other ingredients should we add? Tell us on your platform of choice: Bluesky | Twitter / X | Instagram | TikTok
We wanna make your ingredient ideas happen! 🙏
Deliciously yours,
