[edit] Plot

Jill, who was inspired by her baker grandparents, developed a love for pastry culinary and went to a culinary school. When Jill comes back from culinary school, she finds her grandparents' bakery, Evans' Bakery, closed. Jill decides to open her own bakery and work her way up the business ladder so she can buy back her grandparents' bakery.

[edit] Gameplay

The player controls Jill, a baker of cakes. Customers come in and line up, giving Jill their orders. The player must then direct Jill so that she creates the cake each customer wants, hopefully before the customer becomes tired of waiting and leaves. Jill can use other items such as cupcakes and a TV to help keep her customers patient.

Virtual money earned in the game can be used to buy additional baking equipment such as a second oven, or a better frosting machine, a cupcake microwave or even faster shoes to keep Jill ahead of the orders.

[edit] Cake Mania 2

Cake Mania 2 is a sequel of the original Cake Mania, that also has new features:

  • New customers
  • Different versions of the original oven and froster.
  • A very weird plot

Cost: Usually $19.99
