==Plot==
=== PC/Mac version ===
Piglet goes around collecting ingredients for a soup, to share with his friends Tigger, Rabbit, Pooh, Eeyore and Owl.
=== Console version ===
This game primarily features Piglet going into his friends dreams and defeats "Heffalumps" & "Woozles" to help his friend's collect valuable items.
The game starts with Piglet observing Pooh reaching for the bee hive, Roo trying to reach for a ball which is caught in a tree, Owl trying to remember where his memory book is, Rabbit planting his carrots, and Eeyore having his usual gloomy days.
Piglet sees a Granosorus and is scared of it, but it disappears before his friends can see it. Even Christopher Robin does not believe him. Christopher tells Piglet to overcome his fears, but Piglet says that heroes are supposed to be big and brave, and since he is the opposite, he realizes that he will never be a hero. Piglet leaves the Hundred-Acre-Wood as his friends start to fall asleep doing what Piglet saw them doing. Piglet discovers a mysterious telescope that allows him to enter the dreams of his friends so he can help them with their problems.
In the PC version, Piglet looks for ingredients for a soup recipe.
===Levels===
*Pooh's Dream - A candy and dessert-themed dream. Piglet must discover Pooh and then find him some Honey.

===Enemies===
*"Basic Heffalump" – These enemies have a fairly average elephant body shape but are also able to walk bipedally; they are faced all throughout the game, including the final level.
*"Bee Heffalump" – Bee heffalumps have an elephant's head and feet and a bee's body; they are faced from Roo's Dream, Tigger's Dream, and in the final level. They can move relatively fast, but every time they get scared, they move back a space.
*"Tuba Heffalump" – Most of them can be found sleeping rather than patrolling a set area and will be awoken if they are approached too quickly, they are also able to shatter the grimace code in grimace mode so be quick to scare them off. The Tuba Heffalump appears in Eeyore's Dream, Rabbit's Dream, Tigger's Dream, and also in the final level.
*"Jackpot Heffalump" – They are more or less robot heffalumps that move around on a thin wheel, they can mess up the indications in grimace mode and replace the correct indications with question marks, they don't move all that fast. The Jackpot Heffalump is in Rabbit's Dream and Tigger's Dream and also in the final level.
*"Roadsweeper Heffalump" – These enemies can only be found in Tigger's Dream. They spend most of their time sweeping up leaves from a path, they do move quite fast though, and they can hide from scary faces by sweeping up dust, causing the grimace code to go invisible for a couple of seconds. The Roadsweeper Heffalump is NOT in the final level.
*"Basic Woozle" - Just like the basic heffalump, the basic woozle is also able to walk bipedally; they have a distinctive woozle body shape, but they can't run that fast and also have no way of hiding from a scary face. The basic Woozle can be found in any Dream but just like the Roadsweeper Heffalump, they aren't in the final level.
*"Hide And Seek Woozle" – These woozles are the largest in body height and they wear distinctive magician clothing; they resemble vampires and they can hide from scary faces by covering themselves with their cloak, and Piglet faces them past the scary door in Roo's Dream, Owl's Dream, and Eeyore's Dream. They are also in the Final Level.
*"Mirror Woozle" – These distinctively French woozles supposedly spend all day admiring themselves in their mirrors, and are able to slow down a scary face process by using their mirrors to flip the screen and therefore making it more confusing to complete the grimace code. The Mirror Woozle appears in Eeyore's Dream and Rabbit's Dream. They also appear in the Final Level.
*"Sporty Woozle" – These dog-like woozles apparently like to take part in a wide range of sports, from boxing to tennis; not only can they use their rackets to change one of the symbols in grimace mode, but they are also quite capable of keeping up with Piglet when he runs away, but their vision range is not all that good. They appear in Tigger's Dream after you pass the scary door, and the final level.
*"Talking Door" – The Talking door only appears in every second level when Piglet gets to the near end of the game. He can only be scared when Piglet learns every last scare he has unlocked in each level. He can't move, but he can still scare Piglet if he gets too close to him.
*"Scary Tree" - The Scary Tree is only in Owl's Dream and Eeyore's Dream. Just like the Talking Door, it doesn't move, but can still scare Piglet if he gets too close.
*"Granosorus" - The Granosorus appears in the opening cutscene and the final level. It is just a scary shadow and really big.
===Final Level===
After Piglet completes all the Dreams he can head to the final level A Blustery Day. In the final level, all of Piglet's friends are stranded on different islands with one (or two) Heffalumps or Woozles. Piglet must Scare the Heffalumps and Woozles and rescue his friends using items that each were relevant to their dreams. If the player is too slow or if he makes a mistake, one of Piglet's friends might get scared by a Heffalump, or a Woozle and the player will have to start over.
*Pooh Bear is trapped with a Basic Heffalump. Piglet uses an empty honey pot as a boat.
*Roo is trapped with a Bee Heffalump. Piglet kicks his ball onto a log to form a bridge.
*Owl is trapped with a Hide and Seek Woozle. Piglet reads his memory book to remind him that he can fly.
*Eeyore is trapped with a Mirror Woozle. Piglet uses a paint brush to knocks rocks, that look like the colors, into a creek to make a bridge.
*Rabbit is trapped with a Tuba Heffalump (Which is Sleeping) and a Jackpot Heffalump which appears when you head to Tigger's Island. For some reason, the Tuba Heffalump will not scare off Rabbit but instead, the Jackpot Heffalump will. Piglet knocks over a wheelbarrow of carrots to make a bridge.
*Tigger is trapped with a Sporty Woozle. Piglet uses a striped piece of wood with colored like him as a bridge.
At the end, Piglet must face the Granosorus.

==Reception==
Like the movie, the game received positive reviews as well. Ryan Davis, in a review for GameSpot, deemed the game very much superior to most children’s games and movie tie-ins, and praised the voice acting, sound and art design (which features “surreal” imagery of the character’s dream worlds). Davis also noted the game's gentle pace.
==Trivia==
*Kanga, Roo, Gopher, Christopher Robin, the Narrator and the Talking Door do not appear in the PC/Mac version.
*While the Game Boy Advance version is mostly the same, there are a few notable differences.
**Owl and Tigger's dreams are completely absent.
***As a result, the player cannot temporarily control Pooh.
**The boss of Roo's dream is a Barrel Woozle instead of a Hide And Seek Woozle.
**Eeyore's dream has no boss and Rabbit's dream has a Sporty Woozle for a boss.
**The Granosorus is absent. Instead, Piglet rescues his friends without scaring anything then fights the Heffalumps and Woozles after that.
*Sporty Woozle was mentioned in Disney Heroes: Battle Mode. 
**Rabbit's dream was also recreated in friendship campaign of Pooh and Tigger, this time instead of woozles, EVE and WALL-E were stopping them.
*Game Tip for the PC/Mac version: if you keeping ringing Rabbit's doorbell with his door open, you'll hear him talking offscreen (3 different offscreen dialogues)
*The game went viral in November 2024 after several YouTubers and social media influencers took note at one of the game's levels, which resembles horror genre games such as Silent Hill and Resident Evil. This led to a huge spike in price for the game on websites like eBay, despite the game not being rare.
