Cake Ninja 2
SCORE: 82
Who out there in Family Friendly Gaming
Nation remembers Fruit Ninja? Cake Ninja 2 is a Nintendo DSi game that
is very similar. We are not slicing and dicing fruit though, we are
slicing and dicing cake. Now I do a lot of things with cake, but
throwing it up into the air and cutting it is not part of my normal
regiment.
Cake Ninja 2 (which is also playable on the Nintendo 3DS) is a
downloadable game on the eShop that sells for $4.99 (or 500 Nintendo
Points). It contains a single player, and a multiplayer mode. There are
achievements families can attain, and four main game play modes.
The storyline behind why the ninjas are cutting up the cake in Cake
Ninja 2 is actually humorous. The ninja wife is getting too wide from
all that cake. The way to save her is to cut all the cake up before she
can eat it. The exercise of cutting all that cake can not hurt either.
The different modes in Cake Ninja 2 can help extend the life span of
this hand held video game. The slicing action with the stylus changes
based on where the cakes and cookies are flying up. Cake Ninja 2 can get
repetitive depending on which mode you are playing. Cake Ninja 2 is a
clone of Fruit Ninja, but it is a decent clone.
The graphics in Cake Ninja 2 can be a bit on the darker side - at least
in terms of the background. The cakes look okay, and the music has an
eastern flair to it. The different power ups that can be found in Cake
Ninja 2 are really neat. I loved the ninja stars flying all around the
screen cutting up all the cakes and cookies.
Cake Ninja 2 shows me this franchise has potential. Future releases of
this game could catch or even surpass Fruit Ninja. It might be neat to
see Cake Ninja 2 on the Xbox 360 Kinect. God only knows if that will
happen.
