Fred's New Job
Mr. Slate has a new job for Fred: running a Brontoburger restaurant. Fred needs to assemble brontoburgers by walking over ingredients.
Ingredients will fall to the level below when walked over. Once all ingredients are piled on the lowest level, they are served, and Fred moves to the next round.
Challenges
The smell of burgers attracts pests that will interfere with cooking. Avoid them, as they will slow Fred down. Slowing down too much will result in losing the job.
Fred will be given clubs to protect himself. Dropping ingredients on pests' heads can also slow them down. Hidden items in the kitchen may also help.
How To Play
As Fred or Barney, use the Control Pad to move around the kitchen. Assemble a complete burger by walking over each ingredient until all are stacked at the bottom level. Ensure you walk over the entire length of each ingredient for it to drop.
Pesky primeval pests will chase you. Avoid or attack them. Each time they tag you, you lose a life. Losing all lives ends your burger-building days.
Finishing all burgers in a level advances you to the next. Complete all 24 levels to become the ultimate Brontoburger builder.
Look out for special items (see Pick-Ups) that can assist in your cooking quest.

1P GAME
Fred must prepare Brontoburgers by assembling ingredients. Help him stack the burger layers by walking over them. Fred earns points for every piece of burger.
A Brontoburger is finished when Fred puts together all necessary layers.
VS GAME
You can play the game with two players. Connect two Game Boy® Colors using a Game Link cable. Each Game Boy® Color must have its own Flintstones Burgertime Game Pak. After turning on both Game Boy® Colors, choose "VS GAME" from the Main Menu. Before starting, set the number of levels needed to win and the number of clubs each player gets. The player who first finishes all Brontoburgers in one level wins.
Prehistoric Pests
Serving fast food in the Stone Age means being chased by an endless array of primeval pests. If they interfere too many times, Fred and Barney will lose their jobs.
You have two ways to fight these creatures.
Using Clubs
Whack pests unconscious with a club. Be within striking range and facing the pest, then press the A or B Button to swing. Each direct hit adds 100 points to your score.
Stone Age clubs break after one use and are limited. It is often wiser to outmaneuver an enemy than to waste a precious club.
Dropping Ingredients
You can also chase away pests for a short period by dropping burger items on their heads. Wait until a pest is under a burger item, then run across the item to drop it to the level below. Correct timing can knock out one or more pests.
