Rising Star Games today announced it has entered into a partnership with Japanese development studio Office Create, to bring the latest iteration of the Cooking Mama franchise to systems in the Nintendo 3DS. Cooking Mama: Sweet Shop is planned for a release in April, in the United States, Canada, South America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Middle East.

In Cooking Mama: Sweet Shop players make and create a wide assortment of delicious looking sweets and puddings, and serve customers in the shop to keep them happy! There are 60 different recipes to create by taking part in over 160 different mini-games. The game is played using the stylus and even the microphone to cool, slice, stir, bake and decorate their creations. And just like always, don’t worry if you make a mistake – Mama will fix it for you!

“We are thrilled to welcome Cooking Mama into our ever-growing portfolio of kids and family titles”, said Lee Skittrell, Marketing Manager at Rising Star Games. “Partnering with such an esteemed developer on such a cherished and established entertainment brand reinforces our commitment to entertain and delight gamers of all kinds.”

Sweets can be arranged and displayed in the sweet shop, to provide to your customers and to keep them happy. The more sweets you create and complete, the more your shop expands. You may even trigger a special event! Cooking Mama: Sweet Shop also features a competitive multiplayer mode for two to four players – challenge your friends and see who can make the tastiest treats.

The game is being developed by Office Create and will be published by Rising Star Games. Cooking Mama: Sweet Shop will release in both physical editions at retail stores as well as in the Nintendo eShop in April 2017.
