Gardening Mama for the Nintendo DS is a worthwhile game that might not be overly stimulating as cooking with Mama but this one is still a fun game even for those who don't have a green thumb. While the mini-games tend to repeat themselves throughout the game, you'll find that the garden activities on the DS do have their own stylishly addictive nature once you get into the game. If you enjoyed the Cooking Mama series you will like gardening with her too.

Get ready to help devastate an entire forest by growing produce for your furry capitalist friends under the watchful eye of Mama - who is, of course, running this entire operation. Seeds of friendship are nowhere to be found, as your woodland neighbours only drop by for a stock refill. Luckily, the threat of being driven off your farm in an Orwellian coup is minimal, as their grasp of commerce is about as firm as the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man’s resolve to finally start that diet.

Since then, she has been back with more titles, not only for the DS, but for the Wii as well (also iPhone and iPad). Taking us into our virtual kitchens to cook up some fantastic recipes, sharpen our skills, decorate our kitchen and Mama herself with accessories, and most of all, not to burn our food and make her angry and see that fire in her eyes.
