I had this game downloaded into my phone and was completely addicted to it. So I decided to purchase the game for my DS. Glad I did! Although the storyline is pretty much the same, it is definitely more of a challenge playing the DS version. Although this game is lots of fun and relatively easy to play....the only drawback is that the icons for the frosting and cake toppers are so small, that it is easy to hit the wrong one and thus create a cake that MAY be useless if you are unable to use it for another incoming customer. Overall...I would definitely recommend this game! It's a lot of fun to serve the customers and earn money for your bakery upgrades. For an age group....it really depends on how well you handle a stylus. You have to serve multiple customers who get cranky if you take too long. Definitely a multi-tasking game.Read full review
I have played this game on my PC and I loved it, but I do not like the DS version as much. Having a smaller screen makes controlling the girl a lot harder. For instance, on the cake symbols on the oven it is hard to click whether you want square, triangle, etc... I went through 3 levels and had to put it down because I was getting frustrated because of clicking the wrong things. This could just be me, but it is really slow going at first. I have not played the PC version in quite awhile, but it seems the girl is a lot slower in the DS version and that adds to the frustration. It is not the worst game in the world, but I like Diner Dash much better than Cake Mania.
I just won Cake Mania from an eBay auction. I just love the game, the more you play the more challenging the game gets. The premise of the game is to help Jill show big bad business who's boss. When the retail behemoth "Mega-Mart" moves in, Jill's beloved family bakery is forced to close. But she's determined to get the business back on its feet with delicious sweets. Help Jill open her own bakery, bring in customers, and earn enough money to re-open her grandparents' bakery. Featuring 48 levels and four different bakeries. Beware it is addictive and before you know it you have spent hours playing.
Cake Mania DS is a new addition to the DS Gaming system. This fast-paced game allows players to experience the kitchen like never before. While helping Jill Evans bake in the kitchen, you get to meet some wacky characters, and some exciting bakeries over the world. This game is simple, yet can get difficult at times. With new upgrades to your kitchen, the game gets faster, and you get new customers and new scenarios. This game is a must for culinary lovers.
Fun and simple vintage game! The graphics are definitely also vintage but its a cute and fun game.

When I started playing this game, I couldn't put it down. The concept is fairly simple. A customer orders a cake; you make the cake. Levels get more challanging as you become more popular and cakes get more complex. You buy and upgrade baking equipment with the money you earn. The only downfall is that you can run out of customers before the level is up so you can't make much more money than your monthly goal. I loved this game so much that I went and got the 2nd one.
I bought this game the day it came out for the Nintendo DS. I had been playing it on my PC and loved it so much that I wanted to take it on the go with me for my DS. The game is really challenging and fun. The only problem that I have with the version for DS is that the screen is small so I am always tapping the wrong button on the oven to amke the wrong cake...OOPS! Oh well, it's still so much fun. LOVE IT!
It's a very fun and challenging game. I bought it for my DS and it's a little small to the eyes but it's so fun, you can't put it down! I am now getting for my computer so it's a little bigger but I would play it either way. I beat the game and then it said I unlocked a secret level which was really exciting because I thought the game was over. Now this level is even more challenging and it's fast paced. Great game overall!
I own the Nintendo DS lite and only have 2 games. My sister recommended Cake Mania and mentioned that I would enjoy this game. It was a bit challenging for me at first, but it's fun trying to get to the next level. I am very happy with the purchase. I used to work in a bakery for my very first job, so it brought back some memories.
Its just like when I played it when I was a kid. I love it! The game almost looked new and untouched everything was there. This has made me very happy thank you. Its an old game so the graphics and sound are just how they where for that time. It still looks good. Nothing looked bad, the game plays smoothly and nothing looks broken once again, thank you.
