    Such a sweet short game! ♡ It captures the look and charm of the show so well, with lots of cute references that really make it feel like you're stepping into an episode yourself. It's clearly made with kids in mind and absolutely perfect for them, but adults can enjoy it just as much. Bluey is one of those comfort cartoons that makes you feel cozy and safe, and somehow playing this wrapped me in that same warmth. …

    I am a grown man who's grown daughter introduced him to Bluey a while back. I LOVE Bluey. The episodes are fantastic, and this game, little kid game and all, follows suite. It's like watching a 3-4 hour episode where you get to play the little kid games from the show. I absolutely adored this game. Worth a pick up if you likes the Bluey or got littles in the house.

    As a parent of a fan of Bluey, it was an easy selection make for my child to experience this game. This charming little adventure game brings the beloved animated series to life in an interactive way, perfect for young fans. Right from the start, Bluey The Videogame captures the heart of the show with its familiar art style, warm color palette, and endearing characters. It’s as if the episodes themselves have jumped …

    I think Bluey gives its parents a lot of credit for playing along with the games with infinite patience, but they don’t get the flowers for the parents’ reaction to almost every game being “ugh no not that game” which is exactly correct.

    The new Bluey game is good, has 23,000+ positive ratings on the App Store, and a sensible premium price model. Great that the work went to an Aus developer, but you gotta wonder how much revenue went to the BBC for licensing, and the US publisher for distribution. If only Australia... owned Bluey?

    This game is barely playable, definitely not by small kids, and even then simply not fun. You can tell every decision was made about around how they could put the least amount of money into developing a game that people will still buy because of the Bluey IP. They win, as this probably sold a million copies, despite being barely a game. Most of this game is platforming. This is a bad choice for a small kids game in general, but when the controls and movement are inconsistent and non-responsive…

That is not an exaggeration. There's pathetically little content, so many glitches it can become unplayable, constant game-play interruptions from within the game itself, *every single opportunity* for something to be more fun and replayable is missed, and it is generally about the same level of quality…

It's very bare viable product type of game, the voice lines are robotic and don't sound like they're actually being read, pretty sure it's AI to some degree or copy pasted words from the show badly strewn together, which is a huge shame considering how much love it takes to make the show.
