## Description

_Art Attack_ was a UK children ‘s TV show that ran from 1990 to 2007 _Art
Attack: Party Stuff_ is a game based on that show, it was one of four
promotional titles exclusive to Kellogg’s an d given away with their cereals
in the UK. The other titles were Art Attack: My Stuff, Art Attack: Building
Stuff and Art Attack: Games & Stuff. Each title could be run individually but
when installed together the content of each was available to all the others,
the games contain projects that players can make from paper combined with
digital painting functions that allow the creation of unique work.

Like many other titles the game starts with a log-on screen, however here the
player selects their gender and then uses the splashes of colour to configure
their avatar that’s used during the game.

The main menu is, by default, viewed as a desktop with hotspots for the
various arty activities that are available, this can be changed to a text menu
if required – the text view offers a better idea of the activities in all
modules. The activities that come with the ‘Party Stuff’ module are Paper
Chains; Party Invitations; Name Badges; Place Mats; Place Settings; Sandwich
Flags; Party Hats; Sun Catchers; Party Games; Masks and Crackers. There’s also
a selection of Board Games from the Art Attack: Games & Stuff. Module; Door
Hangers from the Art Attack: My Stuff and Puppets from Art Attack: Building
Stuff.

Each activity has multiple options with two forms of help guides. For example
the place settings activity has four pictures which can be coloured on screen
or printed and coloured off-screen the old fashioned way with crayon or paint,
additionally the player can use the game’s selection of stamps to put
predefined pictures into their artwork. The help information for this activity
is a simple ‘Cut Out’ instruction while the ‘Show Me’ option can either show
an animated work through or a set of step by step text instructions that can
be printed if required.

All activities have a difficulty rating, work can be saved in a virtual album.
Throughout the product the voice of Neil Buchanan is used on prompts, and some
explanations.
