Piece Of Cake?--no way!! So you thought your first day on the job was going to be easy? Well, you not only have to learn the fine art of baking cakes, but you also have to master it in a big hurry. This is a production operation, and business is booming! It's actually a very simple job--at first. You simply take a freshly baked cake from the oven and drop it on a platter which is moving on a conveyor belt. Top that with a cherry, and you will be rewarded for your artistic endeavors. You must stack them correctly however, or--splat!! As your skill progresses, so does the conveyor speed, so keep cool, and try not to earn the dubious title of "butterfingers." Being a top notch bakery chef requires adeptness and a calm temperament, so if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen! Read less

Skippable Atari Console Game, Definitely Foresee the Upcoming Crash

Look: 6/10 I'm a sucker for the Atari 2600 look, mostly left over from my love of 1978 Superman. And the chef is cute and detailed. But beyond that, like you can't even tell what is the cherry and the cake etc lol, even with the help of the manual enter image description here

Sound: 6/10 I like the music and the Atari crunch. …

Sound: 6/10 I like the music and the Atari crunch. Otherwise just annoying beeps and boops.

Play: 6/10 Lol wow, yeah early console games. I really like the Atari 2600: very responsive controls and well-made games. That being said, I simply didn't find this that fun, even with decent controls and a cute concept.

Feel: 7/10 Cute concept, decent graphics, good controls--nonetheless, kinda bland and I didn't wanna push through understanding the nuances of getting the cherry etc. As usual, the manual is helpful. Overall, skippable, though.

Attachment: 6/10 As cute as it is, I doubt I will be returning to this!
