Cake Mania Description:

The challenge is simply to keep up with the demand of your customers. They'll wander in for some cake since that's pretty much all you're selling. Customers need to be attended to as quickly as possible or they'll get ticked off and leave; it's about keeping an eye on their needs and making sure they leave happy enough to pay for the cakes and offer some tips.

New customers need menus so they can place an order. When they do, you need to make the specific cake they're ordering: shape, frosting color, and decoration all must be perfect or they won't take it -- if that happens you'll have to toss the pastry away and eat the cost...and risk not making enough to reach the level's quota.

Cake Mania could be considered a game design inspired by some of the classics out there. It's one part Root Beer Tapper and one part Pressure Cooker, all handled by the simplicity of touch-screen control. The original PC game was entirely click-based, so having the design move to the DS makes a whole lot of sense since the stylus replaces the mouse icon oh-so-well. Tap on the customer, tap on the cake shape, tap on the frosting color, tap on the decoration. The game will queue up your tasks in order so you can keep up with the mob of grannies, jocks, and Easter bunnies pushing through your front door.
