The story in "Cake Shop Simulator" revolves around the experience of running a bakery, while "Cake Shop Bakery Chef Story" by Ketchap offers a different narrative where players take on the role of a thief, stealthily navigating through a house to complete missions while avoiding guards. Both games present unique storytelling elements that engage players in their respective themes.
“This game makes you feel like a thief, hiding in boxes and stealing different objects in the house. Some missions can be easy, but you need to be careful because the guards don't sleep at night!”
