Roughly how far are you in the adventure?
Just one word: WOW. Such a great effort.
Right now I'm around the Restroom, I don't know if I will have time to go further... But thank you anyway!!! 🙂

Hello again, Cake Factory adventurers!
There are about 10 days left to go on the tour of the factory!
As a reminder, all of the main giveaways will end at 5:21 pm Pacific time on the 15th, leaving one more full weekend for solvers.
The new fastest-solve record is at just over 1 day and 13 hours, but the average solve takes around 5-7 days.
And again, make sure to check for hints in the giveaway comments, especially for the thief puzzle where there's an ItsTooHard that makes solving that puzzle much easier!
Good luck, and thank you again to those who've already solved the whole adventure!
In other words: bump! :)

If you're having trouble with the thief puzzle, make sure to use the ItsTooHard quiz to help solve it!
(The quiz is also linked from the comments section of Orders & Fulfillment.)
If you're having trouble with another part of the puzzle, leave a comment and ask a question! The majority of solvers who've gotten past the thief/supply puzzles have gone on to finish the tour in its entirety.
There are two new bonus giveaways for those who've finished, based on the wishlists of the earliest solvers.

Next Saturday at this time, it will be too late! The Cake Factory will have closed! (Technically, there will still be a few of the bonus giveaways open, but for the most part, your chances at some of the best giveaways will be gone!)
The fastest solve is just under one day and fourteen hours, and the average is stretching to 6-7 days. But there are plenty of hints littered among the comments now, so use them, and still feel free to ask further questions as well!

Thanks for an epic journey. That was a lot bigger than I initially expected. It was challenging and at times frustrating, but rewarding and exhilarating. And it had some great twists and jokes.

Congrats on making it through! Those of you who do a stealth run (without commenting) always surprise me when I check out the SGTools stats and suddenly there's another solver! :D
Glad you enjoyed the endgame! :)
[edit] p.s. new fastest solver! awesome!!! :D [/edit]

Ready to go to work at the cake factory? Or just go on the tour?
Either way, be safe on your visit! And don't let the thief get away with it!
Got a few more solvers in the past few days, but there's still very good odds on many of the giveaways!

Ok, I was postponing it for so long, but it's time to finally start this interesting looking adventure! I'm putting up my puzzle (Fez) and point&click (Kathy Rain) playlists in the background for this and hope I'll finish it in time :D
Bump!

Happy cakes!
Have a bump, found some stuff but don't have the time sadly.

The Cake Factory, an interactive text adventure... [SGTools Lvl 2+]
A walkthrough for The Cake Factory has now been posted.
Although this topic is now closed, The Cake Factory adventure will remain available for the foreseeable future should you wish to play it.
The Cake Factory closed on Saturday, September 15th at 5:21 PM Pacific time!
If you're stuck on the thief puzzle, make sure to use the assistance of the ItsTooHard quiz (also linked from the comments in Orders & Fulfillment) as well as the table in Human Resources! If you've found the thief, but are stuck on the Supply Inventory puzzle, use the ItsTooHard puzzle again -- it identifies every item type of the items it asks about.
You can read more details about the event or the FAQ for the event (now including a list of games found inside the factory) in the first-post replies below.
The Cake Factory
An interactive text adventure...
Look > This appears to be some sort of puzzley giveaway event.
You vaguely recall that there are Guidelines about Entering these sorts of things and that leaking puzzle giveaways is a bannable offense.
You wisely decide never to do that.
