- Sandlot Games' Cake-Baking Sequel to Award-Winning PC Game Due Out This 
Summer

Majesco Entertainment Company (NASDAQ: COOL), an innovative provider of
video games for the mass market, and Sandlot Games, a leading developer and
publisher of casual and family-friendly games, today announced Cake Mania(R)
2 for the Nintendo DS(TM). Developed by Digital Embryo, Cake Mania 2 is the
follow-up to the award-winning Cake Mania game that originally debuted on PC
and has achieved more than 50 million downloads worldwide and sold over
280,000 units worldwide on the DS.

"Cake Mania's fast-paced, addictive gameplay has created a tremendous
following of franchise fans," said John Merchant, Marketing Manager, Majesco
Europe. "With a wide range of feature enhancements, Cake Mania 2 for the DS
offers tremendous depth while retaining the same core gameplay mechanic that
made the original a handheld success."

"We are continually inspired by the legions of fans of Cake Mania that
simply can't get enough of Jill Evans and her baking adventures," said Daniel
Bernstein, founder and CEO, Sandlot Games. "We're pleased to once again
partner with Majesco Entertainment and Digital Embryo to provide the fans of

In Cake Mania 2, players use the stylus to lead Jill through more than
200 different levels of baking and frosting madness that include 50 unique
kitchen upgrades players can buy with cumulative bakery earnings. Cake-bakers
must work quickly and accurately to please an all-new demanding customer base
that includes aliens, federal agents, rock stars and grannies. Plus, Jill's
new non-linear baking experience with multiple endings will take her to
exotic locations like an underwater theme park and outer space. Throw in new
features, cake shapes, decorations and frosting flavors and players will have
their stylus busy at all times throughout the main game and in the new
Endless Baking mode.
