About
Don’t Drop The Cake is a horror game about carrying a cake that slides with every step through a world filled with twisted beings and dangerous traps.
Use your mouse to keep the cake balanced as you make your way through one terrifying location after another.
At the end of your journey, uncover why you are carrying the cake to begin with, and see the story through to its conclusion.
Some people might put on a brave front, like “Oh, that was nothing!” even when they are trembling in fear.
But in this game, players must constantly use the mouse to keep the cake from tipping over.
If a sudden jumpscare makes your hand jerk, or panic keeps you from thinking clearly, the cake will slide wildly before eventually falling to the ground.
Still think you’re cool?
The way you move the mouse will give you away.
This isn’t just a walk along a flat path.
A variety of challenges await you: flee twisted beings, dodge obstacles, and race through courses at breakneck speed.
You will need to contend with the dangers around you while keeping a close eye on the cake.
Your ability to stay calm and make split-second decisions will be put to the test.
Why are you carrying the cake?
Who are you delivering it to?
And what are the twisted beings wandering this world?
As you progress, the protagonist’s purpose and the truth hidden within this strange world will gradually come to light.
See where the story leads once the cake reaches its destination.
The game features numerous checkpoints, so even if you fail, you can quickly retry from just before that point.
Choose a difficulty level to suit your play style, whether you want a demanding cake-balancing challenge or prefer to focus on the story.
On the easiest difficulty, the cake will not slide unless you move the mouse. Even players who struggle with action games can proceed at their own pace and enjoy the story to the end.

What went from a goofy game mechanic about balancing a delightful Victoria Sponge topped with icing and strawberries quickly turned into a wonderful story about a Father's love and depth of care to find peace. A must play for Indie Horror gamers/streamers and for anyone wanting a laugh with the occasional spook!
One of the worst games I've ever played. It's boring, its repetitive and depressing. NOT WORTH TO BUY.

The concept of the game with balacing a cake through potential horrors was the core mechanic that was entertaining. However, it does not evolve further with this concept. Often times feeling like a rinse and repeat. Espcially after the 2nd chapter becoming tedious in balance walking to 6 points on a large map and a parade of corridors Storywise, typical with the main protag going to this realm for x reason. However this feels more like a after thought and purely just to state a "Why" with no real substance off a loose tragic story. It fulfills the role Jumpscares are present but often underwhelming. I had been caught off guard for one which seem silly in hindsight, still got me. So plus there The creatures introduce also are underwhealming with no real presence outside of being walking hazard that are unthreatening and easily avoidable It is simple. I believe if they expand more on the interactions revolving around the cake balance. Presenting more challenges. Less story and cutting chapters shorter will leave a bigger impact
Full playthrough on hardest difficulty here once it uploads: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12GIJfruXVM As everyone said the game is great it's challenging at least on the hardest difficulty but the game creators put in a lot of check points so it's not something where you have to have one amazing extremely stressful run to get through the game. The ending was great the premise reminds me of angel beats quite a bit which isn't a bad thing it's nice that it's not just a horror game. The horror itself wasn't that much, but the story was really well done.
配信でやらせていただきましたが、いい意味ですごく裏切ってくるゲームです。 この金額でこんな満足度を得られると思いませんでした。 気になっている方は、とにかく何も調べず何も見ずにやってほしいです。
This game is truly something special. From playing the demo, I knew it was going to be silly, challenging and have jumpscares sprinkled in. But what I didn't know nor expected was how the story comes all together in the end which ultimately made me cry like a baby. The devs really cooked with this one, and I hope other devs and studio's take notes from this game, that such a silly fun concept can still be a platform to tell such a gut wrenching yet beautiful story without being so linear or cliche. Thank you, Midoriyama.
SAXY AS HELL
I cried
好游戏 我正在上厕所 没有纸 我玩完了这个游戏 我觉得 屎 也不是那么脏 我提上裤子就走了
케이크 옮기는 피지컬 게임인 줄 알았는데, 스토리가 가득한 게임이었습니다. 세이브도 좋고 케이크도 쉬워서 부담없이 했어요. 꼭!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 엔딩보시길...흑흑 ㅠㅠ
