Gameplay and design
The game "teaches the basics of art" and allows players to create their own.[1] Players are invited to participate in the Really Big Art Show, while helping Blue and other characters create artworks.[1] The game offered "curriculum-structured learning".[2] The game was for children aged 3 to 10.[3]
