Gameplay
Gameplay
• Illustration — In Sky Burger, the player must stack ingredients falling from the sky in a specific order. In Sky Burger, players stack ingredients to fill a specific order. The player must catch ingredients—a patty, cheese, lettuce, pickle, onion, and tomato—from the sky by tilting their device's accelerometer to catch them. Once the order is filled, the player gets money and a tip and then continues making more burgers. The tip is based upon the cost of the burger and how well the player did catching the ingredients and avoiding the unwanted ingredients. The order of ingredients are randomly selected, and one burger called the Sky Burger allows the player to stack as many ingredients as possible while avoiding the falling hamburger buns. The difficulty increases as the player successfully makes consecutive orders. Ingredients, as well as the hamburger buns, fall quickly. The required amount of ingredients is higher. However, if a player fails to complete an unfinished order due to accidentally collecting a hamburger bun when they have not collected all of the ingredients needed to make that order, the difficulty is set back to the beginning, and again becomes harder as the player progresses.

Reception
On GameRankings, Sky Burger is ranked with a 65% approval rating. Chris Barylick of Macworld mentioned that the game "makes great use of tilt controls for the iPhone and iPod touch," but "the game can feel a bit directionless, which both works for and against it." The game was praised.
