Gameplay
The game is unique in that it uses pictures and symbols to communicate rather than words. The object of the game is to capture one of the six explorer stars. Each explorer star has a special power such as the ability to be noisy or the ability to create music. In order to capture the star, the player must complete a hide-and-seek activity. These activities include maze navigation, matching games, side-scrolling race games, a "Frogger"-type game, a complete-the-pattern activity and a song playing game.
Reception
The game was met with mainly negative reception from critics. Electronic Gaming Monthly's reviewer Seanbaby stated, "[...] this game is for idiots. I don't care if they're four; if they play this, they're idiots."
