I LOVED LOVED LOVED this game, to begin with i was a bit reluctant to carry on as i read in the dialog that if you didn't balanace the house build with proportion to also upgrading your cake shop the customers would become more impatient. however this is quickly overlooked, and i went back to it and finished the game.
the two games in one comes from the balance between managing your happiness with the house build and the upgrades within the shop.
the only drawback is it's short those of you who are comfortable with time management will find this game easy, im not an expert with time management and i still managed to complete the game within 52 game days. which is a bit of a let down as i wished the game was longer. i will definately buy two and three now i know that this game is super fun and although easy it is relaxing.

I found this game to be extremely fast paced from the start, which I really liked (no sitting around twiddling your fingers waiting for customers) and I also thought it was really fun.
The graphics where trying a bit too hard to be realistic but still great. The game play was smooth and it was very easy to get the hang of things. The right click delivery system was the thing that made this game stand out as it made it seamless to play and I really loved that.
I would rather there be slightly harder levels towards the end as once I had gotten the hang of everything I was able to sail through the faster paced levels but it was still a really great game! Show less

Before purchasing a game, I look at the video and read the reviews; a few times I have gotten a game that I didn't like and did not meet my expectations, but this is not one of the games. Happily, I played this game for *hours* - reaching the finalisation of Emily's home, which is gorgeous, and gaining the expertise for assembling cake orders which was a little confusing at first because of the textures were similar in appearance and it takes repetition to achieve a knack for speed.
I thought this was similar to Burger Shop in that the customers enter the shop - up to three at a time, once one leaves - as well as the drink and ice cream machines, which I fill first but are not always requested. I like the building of Emily's home - a specific amount of money is required for each item (foundation, swimming pool, lighting, gates, gardening, windows, etc.) and this reminded me of Diner Dash 4 - I mused that such a home is fit for the owner of the cake shop and not the manager (Emily). The reason I did not give the storyline an excellent rating is that it was a little annoying that until Emily's home is built, each level she sighs and her mood is normal to bad. I did not like that the game instructs the user to chose building the home over purchasing shop items and I have not finished the game but am uncertain what is next now that the home is built and I reached the maximum achievement level.
I have purchased Cake Shop 2 and 3 but in playing CS2 discovered that the items are on a conveyor belt, much like Burger Shop and Burger Shop 2 which kind of takes away the hominess of the original Cake Shop. Show less

I loved this game from playing it in the trial run. As a beginner to this type of timed game, this game made me confident. I had tried other games of this type and became frustrated.

I loved this game from playing it in the trial run. As a beginner to this type of timed game, this game made me confident. I had tried other games of this type and became frustrated. Now I have moved on and bought 2 and 3 in this series. This is the only series I have gotten every game in the series. This is a great starter to the series. 2 is more challenging and 3 is rather hard. The only cons to the game I think are when you build your home up bit by bit; It ends far too quickly; Then you do not have this fun aspect of the game anymore unless you start over. They also really push you to build for your well being. The other parts of the game are putting 3 parts of the cakes together and the fun of adding drink machines, cotton candy, popcorn with the money you earn.
This game has now made confident enough to move onto other more hard games of the same type. as well as the steps up to more challenge in the 2nd and 3rd levels of Cake Shop games.

This game was fun, it wasn't super fast paced and it wasn't frustrating or super challenging. It had some cool features, like building a home for the manager, the star rank and statistics scroll was bland and generic looking, the sound was kind of bump sorta hop beat, and the graphics were OK! I did find when playing the trial version that around the 12th or 18th day of business I found a system ...Show more
This game was fun, it wasn't super fast paced and it wasn't frustrating or super challenging. It had some cool features, like building a home for the manager, the star rank and statistics scroll was bland and generic looking, the sound was kind of bump sorta hop beat, and the graphics were OK! I did find when playing the trial version that around the 12th or 18th day of business I found a system that made things abit easier, I was able to put a new glass for refill as I took the full one and to put the items with longer processing times first before items with shorter processing times, etc. Having the ability to set a cake down somewhere helped to. It seems their was a 1/2 second allowance to do this as well, but remembering to do these things is the key, with of course TIME!!) Things were much easier once I had that down. I would recommend this game as a sort of starter intro into time management games, because it wasn't as fast paced as a lot of these game types are. I have played several restaurant time managment games and I was able to at least get a process down off this one. I would start with this game and then continue progress with the rest of the series..Which cake shop 3 is the bomb !!!!! Show less

I really enjoy games like this for those days I don't want a super challenge but don't want something so simple I go into a coma. The Cake Shop games are just right for me. These games take some time to complete all levels and offer some challenging combinations. The game is visually appealing, not so busy it is distracting to look at, but not of a cartoon style or simple that I feel like I am playing a game for a toddler. I typically don't turn on the sound for games, but the soundtrack for this one is pretty redundant and fortunately I can play silently, so this is appealing to me. Overall, I really enjoy the game, but I believe the sequels are better so I gave this one 4 stars. Show less
