Presentation is always an issue when it comes to games like this, since game collections usually don't come with a set map of how to have each game co-exist with the others. Often times this is left up to the developers, which is met with varying degrees of success. The more common method is to use a simple menu based system, while others attempt to throw in a cheesy story and link the games through the story.
Rugrats: I Gotta Go Party handles this situation in a very creative and unique way. Each of the mini-games is linked into one giant game of Hide and Seek. The game begins with the player going through each room of the Pickle's house and trying to find the babies. As each baby is found they will want to play a different mini-game.
Each of the 24 featured games range from familiar classics like Memory and Kart racing games, as well as some interesting new games like 'Vertically Challenged', where you have to counter balance a grown tower of babies as they try to reach the cookie jar. The game also features games like 'Which Piece Fits', a jigsaw puzzle game and my personal favorite 'Phil's Mud Pie', which has players matching ingredients to Phil's mud pies. However, not all of the games are enjoyable. Some of the games, like 'Spike's Bowl', a boring action-match game and 'Jump the Toys', a ramp game I still don't understand, look dull when compared to other games in this collection.
In addition to the Story mode, Rugrats also features a Quick Play mode that gives players 10 random games to play and Free Mode which allows players to play any games they've unlocked in Story Mode. Rugrats also features a Multi-player mode, a must for this type of game.
