Search for Reptar is a clunky but charming platformer based on the Rugrats IP. Lots of variety to the levels in settings and gameplay. One of the biggest appeals is simply seeing the areas from the show realised in 3d to be explored - which the game capitalises on by making the home a hub world for levels.
Relatively simple - the game has replay value by simply not allowing you to 100% it, as you finish the game once the reptar puzzle completes. It's an unusual approach, but it provides an interesting replay-ability as you can choose alternate pathways through the levels.
Was a great game for kids on release, though now it's more likely to be nostalgia-bait for an older audience.

Useless fact of the day: as a musician the soundtrack in this game is my point of reference for the whole-tone scale. Thanks Rugrats.
