  • The outside area near the kitchen features a shell game where a tiny present hides under 1 of 3 party hats (small, medium, and large) that switch positions and the player must guess which hat the present is hiding under.
  • The difficulty setting affects the clue drawing procedures: in "Beginning" difficulty, the player just had to pick the matching drawing; in "Intermediate" difficulty, the player had to put the pieces of the drawing together like a puzzle; in "Advanced" difficulty, it is similar to "Intermediate" except there are extra pieces.
  • Although the white water paint colors is white, it is displayed silver instead, but the actual painting on page is that.

  • When Mailbox says, "Okay, so you want me to sing, don't you?", clicking on him will make him do it. Otherwise, moving to a different room will keep him busy instead.
  • There are a few differences in easy mode:
    • Clicking on Baby Bear first and then the disposable camera will make Steve say, "What a great idea you have! We can use my camera to take Baby Bear's picture, and maybe she'll give us a hint to one of Blue's Clues. You are just so smart!", but clicking on the disposable camera first will make him say, "My camera. You know, I've been looking all over for this. I'm sure this will come in handy later." instead.
    • Clicking on Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper first and then the magnets will make Steve say, "You found the magnets! That's so great! Now we can help Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper hang their drawings on the fridge. Good job!", but clicking on the magnets first will make him say the same thing.
    • Clicking on the chick first and then the watering can will make Steve say, "A watering can? This is just what that little chick was looking for. Let's bring it to her.", but clicking on the watering can first will make him say, "Look at this watering can. We should hold onto it for later." instead.
    • Clicking on the Felt Frame first and then the package will make Steve say, "Do you think this could be the package the Felt Friends were talking about?", but clicking on the package first will make him say the same thing.

    • Clicking on the blue coat and then the hanger will make Steve say, "Hey, we needed a hanger for something! What was that?", but clicking on the hanger first will make him say the same thing.
    • Clicking on the talking presents first and then a key will make Steve say, "Is this key in the right shape to fit the lock on the chest?", but clicking on a key first will make him say the same thing.
    • Clicking on Slippery first and then the juice pop stick will make Steve say, "Oooh! Maybe Slippery can use this juice pop stick to paddle his boat. Let's give it to him.", but clicking on the juice pop stick first will make him say, "A juice pop stick? Huh! Who knows, we may need this later for something." instead.
  • There are a few differences in hard mode:
    • Clicking on Baby Bear first and then the disposable camera will make Steve say, "Hey, you know something? Didn't someone say they needed a picture of themselves? We could use the camera!", but clicking on the disposable camera first will make him say, "My camera! I've been looking all over for this. We can use it to take pictures of the party." instead.
    • Clicking on Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper first and then the magnets will make Steve say, "You know, we've been looking for magnets for something. Do you remember what for?", but clicking on the magnets first will make him say, "Hey, do you know what these are? Oh, yeah. Magnets! You know, these might come in handy. Let's hold onto them." instead.
    • Clicking on the chick first and then the watering can will make Steve get an extra line of dialogue, which is "We've been looking for something like this, right?", but only after the chick is clicked on two or more times. That's because he says, "Is that the silliest watering can you ever saw? I think it wants to come with us. Great!".
    • Clicking on the Felt Frame first and then Mailbox will make Steve say, "Hey, Mailbox, will hold onto this package and deliver it for you.", but clicking on Mailbox first will make him say, "Okay, Mailbox. We'll deliver this package as soon as we figure out who it's for." instead. This happens after Steve says, "Can you tell? Who is that package for?".
    • Clicking on Baby Bear first and then a balloon will make Steve say, "Somebody was looking for a balloon! Does that look like the right pattern?", but clicking on one first will make him say, "I love balloons. Let's take this one with us. You never know when we'll need an extra birthday balloon." instead.
    • Clicking on the blue coat and then the hanger will make Steve say, "Do you see Blue's coat hanger? We could make a mobile with it, but I think we need it for something else.", but clicking on the hanger first will make him say, "Hey! We could use that coat hanger to make another mobile. Oh, wait! That's Blue's coat hanger. We better hang onto it." instead.
    • Clicking on the talking presents first and then the circle key will make Steve say, "Do you think this circle key will fit the lock in the chest?". The presents and triangle key will make him say, "Maybe this triangle key will fit the lock. Let's try it.". Or maybe the presents and square key in order will make him say, "You think this square key will fit the lock? We can try it.", but clicking on one first will make him say, "I wonder what this key is for? Let's keep it. You never know." instead.
    • Clicking on Slippery first and then the juice pop stick will make Steve say, "You know, a juice pop stick is good for a lot of things. Who needed something like this?", but clicking on the juice pop stick first will make him say, "A juice pop stick. This looks interesting. We might want to use this later." instead.
  • At the end of the demo, after Steve says, "Bye-bye. See you later!", he gets an extra line of dialogue, which is "And hopefully I'll find two more clues somewhere before the party. Bye. See ya.", but only after the first clue is found.
  • In the Present Store, Blue will wish to play with the stuffed Magenta and Blue puppies, wish to play baseball, wish to paint pictures, wish to go out in the snow, wish to get ready for bed, or wish to march in the parade.
  • In the Find Turquoise game, you get two chances to figure out which box she is in.
  • When you get two strikes in the Find Turquoise game, Steve will say, "Turquoise, you hide again. This time, I'm sure we'll find you." when Turquoise pops out, or "Oh, no! Not again. Can you help me find that little turtle again?" while the boxes shake.
  • When you find Turquoise on the first or last try, she will throw confetti out of her hands or give the thumbs up and dance with her eyes closed.
  • When finding Turquoise for the first time, but only on the first or last try, the Cash Register will open and close his drawer to reveal confetti coming out, but pressing the escape key during that will make him try it again. This only happens once.
  • Clicking on Mailbox with an extendo arm for the first time in "What Does Blue Want to Give to Her Guests at Her Party?" will make him sing the Mailtime song, just like his ribbon and balloon form that says, "Okay, so you want me to sing, don't you?".
  • In the Pizza Making game, Mrs. Pepper knows what Magenta wants and Mr. Salt knows what Blue wants.

Goofs[]

  • When the player's favorite color is white, Steve does not say, "Hey, that's your favorite color!" after saying it, but he only says it after saying, "Pink!" instead.
  • When the Cash Register says, "It has stripes on it!", the box on the top shelf's left side does not shake.
