Rugrats Adventure Game is an educational adventure game based on the Rugrats television series released for Microsoft Windows and Macintosh on August 24, 1998. It was developed and published by Broderbund (at that point a subsidiary of The Learning Company).
After being forbidden from watching a Reptar movie by Didi, Tommy and his friends decide to act it out, but they are stopped by Angelica, who throws Reptar into a trash can out of spite. Using Tommy's screwdriver to escape the playpen, the Rugrats attempt to save Reptar by stowing away inside another trash can to be taken outside, but they are spooked by a garbage truck (called "Hubert" by the babies) and sent back to their playpen by Didi.
Refusing to give up, the Rugrats unlock the playpen again, when Angelica comes to "warn" them about aliens that are coming to kidnap them. With the help of Stu's G.R.O.S. (Garbage Relocating Outside System) invention, the babies manage to sneak outside and retrieve Reptar, only for Angelica to steal it again. The Rugrats fight with Angelica over the doll and successfully take it back. Afterwards, Angelica "transforms" into an alien named "Angeleeka", who plans to destroy Earth. The babies battle Angeleeka in an outer space fantasy and defeat her by splatting her with a coconut pie. The Rugrats then break the fourth wall, thanking the player for their help as the game ends.
The game follows Tommy, Chuckie, Phil, and Lil working to complete the tasks they need in order to get outside and rescue Reptar. The entirety of the game is set in the Pickles' house and each location is split into several screens where Tommy can walk to. At least one of his friends is on each screen, and can help in collecting items or completing certain tasks. Items are stored in Tommy's diaper, and they can be accessed by clicking on the diaper. Different minigames can be played at certain points in the game, which help the player progress further. By hovering the cursor over the bottom of the screen, several buttons will show up, revealing how many of the tasks the player has completed in the main goal, and giving options on whether to reset the game or quit. A "cry" button is also shown, which will cause the Rugrats to cry when clicked on, prompting Didi to take them back to their playpen, the first area in the game.
