  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />When I take a break from the stress, tension and exhilaration of World of Warcraft or Soldier of Fortune, I like to kick back and relax a bit. That's where Jessica's Cupcake Cafe OS X comes in. This very nicely implemented OpenGL game goodie is the ultimate cupcake baking divertissement for today's discriminating mac-freak. Whether you are preparing a batch of yummy Strawberry Jam Cupcakes with Sugar Icing Frosting, or filling a tray of heavenly Vanilla Cupcakes with Chocolate Buttercream Frosting, you won't be disappointed. Jessica's pastries are delicious. And she's pretty hot too! Housing bubble, health care crisis, massive bank fraud, recession, religious fundamentalism, international terrorism, corporate corruption, governmental graft, global warming, genetically modified foods, impending societal collapse - - Jessica's Cupcake Cafe is not about any of that. Not directly. But keeping a store full of impatient customers happy, and well-nourished, is the perfect metaphor for what we need a little more of today. Don't you think? At a time when college tuition has become an unaffordable luxury for average Americans, role playing games like Jessica's can even help to bridge the growing education gap. Now, thanks to the Cupcake Cafe, high school and college graduates alike can better prepare for their first job in the fast food industry, because Jessica's Cupcake Cafe doubles as a training course in the basics of food preparation, customer service and retail management. Yet you can enjoy this game in the comfort of your parent's basement for just $19.95. Of course you don't have to be a high school student or college graduate to play Jessica's Cupcake Cafe. The wholesome simplicity and universal joyfulness of making cupcakes with Jessica is addictive and appealing to the young and the young at heart. It's for everyone. I'm sure that once you try a little baking with Jessica, you will look on your First Person Shooter and MMOG games in a whole new light. Perhaps a dimmer light. After all, those games are stressful. Rather like work. Jessica's Cupcake Cafe, on the other hand, is soothing, a relaxing respite, a welcome relief for world wide web weary warriors. So, give your Final Fantasy XI, BZFlag or RuneScape a rest. Come bake some cupcakes with Jessica for a change. Yeah, you'll kill fewer tanks and monsters and avatars, but I'm pretty sure you'll be glad you did!
