Ever wanted to run your own tiny Japanese bakery on the Game Boy Color? That’s basically what this little gem is about. You start off with a simple cake shop, picking recipes, baking stuff, and serving customers—it’s way more charming than it sounds. The pixel art is adorable, and there’s something weirdly satisfying about watching your little cakes come out perfectly (or burning them if you’re not paying attention).
It’s in Japanese, but the gameplay’s straightforward enough that you can muddle through. Mix ingredients, time your bakes right, and try not to disappoint the customers with their very specific cake demands. Honestly, half the fun is just seeing what weird combos you can pull off.
If you’re into retro cooking sims or just love the vibe of old-school handheld games, this one’s a cozy time-waster. Just don’t blame me when you start craving actual cake after playing.
