Blue's Birthday Adventure is a fun educational video game released in 1998. It's based on the popular TV show Blue's Clues. The game was created by Humongous Entertainment. In this game, you help Steve, the show's host, find clues. These clues help him figure out what his puppy, Blue, wants for her birthday party.
How to Play
Blue's Birthday Adventure came on two CD-ROMs. Each CD-ROM had two different stories or "scenarios" to play. All these stories are about Steve getting ready for Blue's birthday party.
Before you start playing, you enter your name, birthday, and favorite color. You control Steve as he explores his house. Steve often talks directly to you, just like he does in the TV show. The game looks a lot like the TV show too. Steve is a real person in a cartoon-like house. Blue, the puppy, "talks" by leaving blue paw prints. These paw prints show you where important clues are.
Finding Clues
Once you pick a story, you help Steve solve three problems. You guide him through his house to find clues. These clues are always marked with blue paw prints. To find them, you need to talk to other characters in the game. You might also need to give them items they ask for.
Each time you find a clue, you get a task to complete. After you find all the clues and finish the tasks, you help Steve sing a song. This might even be the famous Blue's Clues theme song!
Difficulty Levels
The game has three different difficulty levels. These levels change how hard the tasks are when you find a clue. For example, on the easiest level, you might just pick the right drawing. On a harder level, the same task might ask you to put together pieces of a picture to make it whole.
