Arthur's Birthday is a computer game that is part of the Living Books series. It is based of of the book Arthur's Birthday. This game was first released in 1994.
Gameplay
Like most Living Books games, the narrator reads the story out loud and the player can play mini-games to get clues about the the book. In this one you have to get clues about each present. D.W keeps track of your clues throughout the game. Also, if you click objects in the background, they will make an animation.(e.g a firecracker) Despite the fact that the mini-games gives you clues, the "Pin the Tail on the Donkey" does not.
D.W is the main guide and tracks your clues throughout the game.
