Festive fun with CBeebies! A new Dodge's Pup School game, Hey Duggee and Teletubbies game updates and much more in the CBeebies Playtime Island app this Christmas. Kids can learn as they play with their CBeebies favourites, JoJo & Gran Gran, Peter Rabbit, Hey Duggee, Shaun the Sheep, Go Jetters, Supertato, Swashbuckle, Bing and more! There are over 40 free games to choose from and each one meets the specific needs of children and their parents or carers, with a focus on bonding, learning, discovery and self-expression. EXPLORE THE ISLAND Once your child arrives on the CBeebies Playtime Island, their CBeebies friends will be there to greet them. Take a look around and discover the full range of games available. Your child’s favourite games can then be downloaded and played offline, whenever you want. ‘MY GAMES’ TREASURE CHEST All the games you download for your child will be saved to their very own treasure chest on the island, so their most treasured games are all in one place and easy to find! This personalisation means that the app can grow with your child as they develop, and their interests change. MANAGE DOWNLOADS No need to worry about running out of space; using the download manager, games can be added or removed as many times as you like! So whether your child wants to play them all, or you need to remove a game to make space for a new one, the choice is yours! PLAY ANYWHERE No Wi-Fi? No problem!

This game is so nostalgic but that’s just one thing I want the old branding back. I get that they did a rebrand, but the closest thing I can get to the original version I played is putting the old app icon back with Shortcuts and yea that that works and I know that someone’s games haven’t been updated yet so they feature the old logos like the Peter Rabbit one. The fact that the blobs aren’t in the game anymore (I know they technically are but they are squares and they’re not the same)It’s kind of sad to be honest, and also the CBeebies idents aren’t good anymore BUTI love this game, even though it’s not as good as it was. I still love this game so much.

You have completely changed it and mad it bad

I used to have this game when I was younger and it was so good and all the games were great and I came back to see what it was like and you have completely changed it and made the minigames bad and the graphic awful. You took away all the good games and the good looking starting map and replaced them with games that look like they could have been made by a 7 year old. The main problem I have is the game was pretty much perfect before and by adding all these new updates you have downgraded all the original games to virtually unplayable compared to the amazingness the game was before. The teletubbie, muppet and swashbuckle games were iconic and perfect before but now you have turned it into funless games with graphics right out of my story animated (look it up if you don't know you plonkers). PLEASE CHANGE IT BACK IT WAS PERFECT BEFORE AND NOW IT IS DOWNRIGHT UPSETTING TO PLAY WITH ALL THE MEMORIES OF WHAT IT ONCE WAS.

Hi, sorry you are disappointed with the app. The old CBeebies Playtime app was decommissioned because the technology that was used to build it is now outdated for many newer devices, and is not accessible for users with impairments. The older technology also means that Playtime is much bigger than similar apps, and takes up a lot of space on your device. From 2018, the Playtime app was no longer being supported technically.Kind regardsCBeebies Apps Team

This new layout of the playtime island is horrendous the only games that are actually enjoyable are the ones that were on the old app. Personally, I think some of the games should be replaced for the more funnier ones like you have to bring back the old swashbuckle board game!!! It was perfect I loved that game and now that it’s not here I struggle to find any game that won’t bore me within 3 minutes. Also in the old version picking your vehicle to travel to the island was so memorable but now it’s gone. I get that the old app took up a lot of space but can you just recreate some of the highlights of the old version and switch it with the boring parts of this version. With this version you have to download every game before you play it, and the narrator explaining to you is quite slow and annoying and you can’t even skip it, not even kids can enjoy this app!!!

Hi, thank you for your feedback. We changed the design of the island to make it even easier for children to find and play their favourite CBeebies games. Putting the CBeebies shows your child loves at the forefront of the app!We have also added some great new features, such as the ‘My games’ treasure chest which lets you see all your child’s favourite games in one place. Once played and downloaded, these games can then be played offline, for those times when you need them to hand quickly!A new settings feature allows you to reduce the amount of space Playtime Island takes up on your device by removing games that haven’t been played in a while.Plus, we are continually adding new games to the app, and this update means that we can really celebrate new arrivals to the island and let you know they have arrived!Kind regards CBeebies Apps Team

Terrible

App continually hangs and is very glitchy, not to mention the game freezing (often) mid way through before displaying a white screen. Some levels, even when complete, do not allow you to progress to the next level - very strange. All of this is very VERY frustrating for a young child. I have seen some comments suggesting the device being used needs ‘more memory’ or the ‘memory cleared’ to prevent the white screen - I can say I have this app on a variety of devices and all experience the same issues. We loved the old app (now unavailable - please bring it back) - sorry, but this new app is terrible. Whoever brought this to market before ironing out the (many) glitches really needs to get in to work early on Monday morning - there is much work to do. Disappointed family. N.B. Bizarrely, even the review froze when trying to post. Oh dear.
