Play Arthur's Absolutely Fun Day Online

Remember those old Arthur books? This Game Boy Color game turns Elwood City into a bunch of quick mini-games starring Arthur and the gang. You start by running around a little map—Francine’s shooting hoops at the park, Buster’s got an air hockey table set up, and Grandma Thora’s flipping pancakes in her kitchen. Each one’s super simple, like delivering newspapers or picking berries, but just tricky enough that you’ll mess up a few times before nailing it.

Once you’ve collected enough gold stars from the mini-games, you unlock Wonderworld, this little amusement park with carnival-style games. No more stars here, just dumb fun—bumper cars, skee-ball, that kind of thing. The dunk tank’s my favorite, mostly because watching Buster get dropped into water never gets old.

It’s definitely a kids’ game, but there’s something weirdly satisfying about sorting candy at The Sugar Bowl or racing Brain down the sidewalk. Just don’t expect deep strategy—it’s all about quick reflexes and goofing around.
