I’ve never been a fan of Burgertime, but I could appreciate what other people saw in that chaotic game that allies with my fast food arch nemesis Fatburger in the twisted vision that fried eggs on hamburgers was anywhere near a great idea.
French baker takes elements from the old Burgertime game and bastardizes them on every level imaginable. You play the least likeable protagonist ever, the French Baker (he beat out Middle-Eastern Terrorist, Puppy Killing Serial Rapist, and Frankenstein in an internal vote for who the main character should be) as he climbs ladders and hops platforms to kill his zany French creations, you know, like hot dogs and donuts. Unlike Alfredo and the Fettuccini, however, most of the French Baker’s creations end up looking like file cabinets and envelopes rather than pastries. The game is a cakewalk (pun!) until level 4, where enemies will do their best to spawn on top of you - even on ladders. Wowza!
French Baker is one of a number games on this cart that use the single-screen platform concept. Technical jargon aside, it’s also the same shit as everything else on the Action 52; kill a number of enemies, go to the next level, and when you get back to level 1, proceed to wash the hate off of you. You can walk on ladders, through platforms, and even on air.as long as there’s a ladder nearby. Unfortunately, French Baker’s shins are about as limp as his wrists – proven by sending your baker from one platform to another without using a ladder no matter how close it is. Thankfully, you only need to endure four levels of this drivel before you’re warped back to square one and lose any motivation to choke any more of this shit confection down.
