About this game
This Game Is Not for the Faint of Heart
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.
You Can Talk Tough, but Your Hands Will Give You Away
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.
Challenges That Put Your Balance to the Test
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.
A Story That Gradually Unfolds
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.
Choose the Difficulty That Suits You
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.
