## Plot

The game takes place on Pinkie Pie's birthday, which is a very special day for her. But as a surprise, Sweetie Belle hid all of the gifts and puzzle pieces all over Ponyville and its up to her to find all of them, while celebrating her own birthday.

## Gameplay

The player's objective in the game is to track down Pinkie Pie's presents and puzzle pieces hidden throughout Ponyville. As Pinkie Pie, the player navigates throughout the entire town looking for the puzzle pieces and gifts while interacting with other ponies. The top part of the Nintendo DS's screen acts as a map, with the puzzle pieces and gifts located in certain areas. The player can also save its progress throughout the game.

Similar to Crystal Princess: The Runaway Rainbow, the game also features puzzles and mini-games utilizing the Nintendo DS's capabilities.
