[edit] Plot

Once again, Timmy Turner's mother and father have gone on a vacation, and left Timmy with the evil babysitter Vicky. When Timmy tries to make a wish, his fairy godparents Cosmo and Wanda tell him that it's against "Da Rules". Outraged, Timmy wishes he didn't have to follow the rules. So, Cosmo destroys the book. Vicky arrives, and gains possession of Da Rules. She wishes Timmy was still sleeping, and since she has possession of a fairy item, her wish is granted. Timmy, Cosmo and Wanda go to Fairy Court, and are accused of destroying Da Rules. Jorgen von Strangle gives the three of them 48 hours to find the missing pages of Da Rules. Timmy must navigate through nine levels and find the pages before Vicky's wishes become too extreme!

[edit] Miscellanea

  • The level The Vicky Virus contains many references to video games. For example, Vicky takes the form of a giant brain, possibly a reference to the Mother Brain from Metroid. The Vicky Virus also says, "When I'm done with you, I'll turn you into... a hedgehog!" This is a reference to the SEGA character Sonic the Hedgehog. One of the "mini-levels" inside it is called "Battlestar Antarctica", which could be a reference to Battlestar Galactica.
  • The general game has a reference to the Mario series. If the player doesn't move Timmy around for a period of time, he glares at the player (a la Sonic the Hedgehog (16-bit)), reads his Crimson Chin comic books, or falls asleep (a la Super Mario 64). This is an example of breaking the fourth wall.
  • The levels are similar to episodes from the Fairly OddParents show. For example, "A Badge Too Far" is similar to "Scout's Honour", and in the game, Timmy is turned into a girl and named "Timantha", like in "The Boy Who Would Be Queen". "The Vicky Virus" is also similar to "Power Mad!"
