What happens on the card

At the top of a tower of party girders, Grumpus the grumpy donkey rolls barrels down. A little party guest walks up by itself, girder after girder; tap to jump the barrels. At the top the guest sings happy birthday: the donkey's frown melts, he joins in with a big HEE-HAW and a party hat, and the birthday cake rises on its lift.

Who it is for

The lovable grump, retro gamers, donkey and farm lovers, and anyone who pretends to hate their birthday.
