'''Buster's Growing Grudge''' is an educational online game based on the [[Buster's Growing Grudge|episode]] with the same name. It is part of the "[[Being a Friend]]" series, and the topic is "Forgiveness."
==Game-play==
The game is essentially a trimmed-down version of the what happened in the episode. Screenshots from the episode and speech bubbles are presented in a comic format. Occasionally, a splash screen will appear with a discussion question for the reader about Buster's King Tutankhamun joke and [[Binky Barnes|Binky]] stealing said joke. Buster's grudge is represented as a green blob sticking out of his backpack, and it will grow and shrink depending on the events of the ending, where the reader can tell Buster what he should do about his vendetta against Binky. Some of the options include confronting Binky or talking to his buddy Arthur.

==Characters==
*[[Arthur Read]]
*[[Binky Barnes]]
*[[Bionic Bunny]]
*[[Buster Baxter]]
*[[Francine Frensky]]
*[[Nigel Ratburn]]
