After mastering Cake Mania, I of course bought No. 2. There are lots of new characters, graphics, etc. but the strategy remains the same. This game differs from the first in that the location of the ovens, topping machines, and icing machines switch locations at every level. Also, the types of cakes baked are not the same on all 3 machines which makes the baking process a bit more difficult. The first few levels (or "worlds" - you'll see when you play the game) are relatively easy. However, my experience is that the levels go from this level to straight-up impossible (or very difficult). I guess this is a good thing for Cake Mania addicts as this challenge keeps the game fresh. I tried to find No. 2 for DS and apparently, as of right now (2008), Cake Mania will not be coming to DS (at least not this year). :(
I am a Cake Mania Addict! Once I start playing this game, I cannot stop! I really liked Cake Mania 2 compared to the first one. The only thing I didn't really like is that this one allows you to pick several different paths, which is great, except for when you beat one, you have to start all the way back at the begining before taking another path. Therefore, when you are used to your over popping out a cake in about a second, starting over makes you irritated because its so slow!!! Other than that, I would recommend this game to anyone who loves simulation/strategy games!
