Chili’s Grill & Bar debuts video game for rewards members

Chili's Grill & Bar is offering rewards members a chance to win free burgers for life via a video game.

It's a refreshed version of the BurgerTime arcade game: Chili's Big Smasher BurgerTime. Players are challenged to save humanity from the overpriced fast-food burger. Fans play as Joe ChiliHead, with the goal to build as many Big Smasher Burgers as they can while fending off fast-food villains and advancing through six levels for mouthwatering prizes.

Through July 14, eligible fans who log in or create a My Chili's Rewards account can compete in the Chili's Big Smasher BurgerTime competition at chilisburgertime.com.

Players grow their high score by building Big Smashers one ingredient at a time, mirroring the real-world pace of Chili's restaurants where a burger is sold every second on average.

The player with the highest overall score at the end of the competition will be named Chili's Big Smasher BurgerTime Champion and receive free Chili's burgers for life along with a limited-edition Chili's Big Smasher BurgerTime arcade cabinet.

Second and third-place overall scores also receive a Chili's Big Smasher BurgerTime arcade cabinet. The first 250 players who gather the 3 For Me bonus within the game receive a Chili's gift card to enjoy a free 3 For Me meal on Chili's.
