Carnival Games

When you hear the word Carnival the picture that comes to your mind is that of fun and bright colours. Carnival Games combines all the classic carnival game experiences with the Wii’s motion-sensing controls. Players start by creating a stereo-typed character. Then with your character, you venture out into the carnival, completing games in single-player mode to earn prizes and accessories. Or in multi-player mode you can compete against your friends and family. Up to four players can participate in that game. Multiplayer is possible even with just one Wii remote, as the game allows for players to pass the controller between them. There are more than 25 different mini games to play. Carnival includes all the classics; Dunk Tank, Alley Ball, Ring Toss, Balloon Darts, and so on. You get prizes and accessories when you are successful. Prizes are given out based on your performance. The better you perform the better the prizes. Though carnival is fun to play, there is a lack of clarity of game instructions and controls are too sensitive or not sensitive enough. Some of the games are amusing enough to be worth playing multiple times, but most of them aren’t. Some reviews said that though it’s not the best-looking game on Wii, it’s impressive for a low-budget, little-hyped release. Sound effects follow the carnival’s mood and atmosphere. It is mostly a family game giving a more Carnival mood that a real Carnival.
