I was using an Amstrad 6128 at a training center in 1988 and there was a game that was popular - it was a business simulation text/character graphics and it involved selling burgers! like running a McDonalds. I can’t remember what it is called and I have been trying to find it again. Anyone have any idea what it was? It may of been written in Basic but I don’t think it was a type-in possibly a public domain game rather than commercial.

I can only recommend CPC-Power ([CPC-POWER, sauvegarde du patrimoine de l'Amstrad CPC](https://www.cpc-power.com/index.php))

I had a look through myself but didn’t find anything, besides Town Clerk ([CPC-POWER, sauvegarde du patrimoine de l'Amstrad CPC](https://www.cpc-power.com/index.php?page=detail&num=19682)) which was the only one I could see related to food in some way.

Seems like the title could have been listed on [https://cpcrulez.fr/info-business\_simulation.htm](https://cpcrulez.fr/info-business_simulation.htm) yet I could not locate anything resembling.

Welcome Bouncer6128.

Sure it wasn’t BBC Micro?

For example here is Candyfloss: [Candyfloss](https://bbcmicro.co.uk/game.php?id=1317)

Can you remember anything more about it that might help?

Was it mostly text? Did it have chunky BBC Micro teletext like graphics? Was it only burgers that were for sale?

Any small detail might help to find it.

Thank you all for your replies.

Definitely Amstrad 6128 because all the computers in that area of the training center were 6128’s and in the other areas were Olivetti PC’s.

I think it may of only been burgers, which is probably why I remembered that detail. I can’t remember any teletext type graphics, from what i recall it was standard text.

It could of been written in Basic as I mentioned so in theory could of been converted from another machine.

I just wish I could remember the name.
