How to Play Wiggins in Storyland

Wiggins in Storyland lets you be a creative storyteller! You can write your own stories and poems. The game gives you lots of tools to make your stories special.

Creating Your Own Stories

You can choose from many animated backgrounds and characters. There are also lots of props and background music to use. The game makes it easy to write without getting confused by complex tools.

  • Over 40 different characters, like Wiggins the worm, Jenkins the ghost, and the Honker.
  • More than 110 props to add to your scenes.
  • Eight different story themes to inspire you.
  • Many different fonts for your text.
  • 40 different sound effects and music tracks.

When you play, you see a book on your screen. You write your story on the left page. The right page is where you add pictures and fun stuff. A toolbar at the top lets you drag items onto the page.

Bringing Characters to Life

You can change the animated characters in many ways. Make them bigger or smaller, or change their facial expressions. You can even change their mood! After you write your story, you can record it. Then, you can listen to your own story played back aloud!

Exploring Wiggins' Library

Besides writing stories, you can visit "Wiggins' Library." This is a special room where you can click on things to do fun activities. It's a point-and-click adventure!

Fun Activities in the Library

In the library, you can do many cool things:

  • Paint the room with different colors.
  • Play musical instruments.
  • Shoot peas with a spoon (just for fun!).
  • Make yummy fruit juices for Wiggins to drink.

You can also click on the window or the rug for more games. Play a classic game of Tic-Tac-Toe. Or try "The A-Maze-ing Rug," where you try to catch a "bad guy" before time runs out!
