Funland: The Missing Happiness, the Mean Problem & the Misery Swamp
When a dark robot troublemaker and some worry insectbots steal all the happiness, kindness and laughter in Funland, make a sticky, misery swamp that grows and grows (which is made from mean, bitter, unkind and cruel thoughts, actions, words and deeds) and create a huge mean dark structure called a problem, its up to the toys of Funland to try to get the happiness, kindness and laughter back, so they have to embark on a happiness and kindness treasure hunt to find any happy and kind memories that they can. However, they must also find a way to solve the mean problem which only shrinks through acts of kindness which create joy and happiness, they have to remember what happiness, kindness and laughter are by finding happy, kind and funny memory treasures across Funland and must learn how to create happiness and kindness to replace the happiness, kindness, joy and laughter that they have lost because every time they create happiness and are kind to each other, the mean problem shrinks and the misery swamp dissolves. So, they must find ways to make each other happy and be kind to each other to create enough joy and laughter to solve the mean problem and to chase the misery swamp and misery swamp creatures in the swamp out of Funland along with the troublemakers.
