Customer Review: Dull, repetitive games, buggy physics

RUN from this game. It makes Carnival Games look GENIUS in comparison. As the other reviewer said, you only get 1 free game in each of the 5 sections, so you must play so many times & do well enough in that game alone to earn enough tickets to play the other about 5 games in that section. All the other games cost 10-50 tickets each to play once & they only give you 10-100 tickets each, some only 20 even if you get the top score & play perfectly. Did I mention that in order to get to the next section you must have bought the prizes with said tickets? It's bad enough it looks cheap, dull & the auctioneer in each section have horrible, inane, non-helpful things to say, but also all the games are the same, but in different themes. I got to section two before I was tempted to throw my wii remote. Both had a non-moving objects shooting gallery, both had a whack a mole game, etc. A game that forces you to play games repeatedly ad nasueum to get to anther section. why don't they force you to watch a good movie as well & take any possible fun out of that too? Oh, the ride if you earn enough tickets? Is just another "game" such as section 1 is you shot out of a cannon & have to hit the botton displayed at the right time as you go through obstacles. Like a slow rhythm game. OOhhhhhh. You know a game is bad if on the commericial the actors have to dress up & do lame things to seem like they are having fun instead of just showing gameplay. Unless the gameplay SUCKS.



There are several review sites like IGN com which even shows you video of several minutes of gameplay. I rented this & I still want my $3 back.

Customer Review: ok but not great

They lead you to beleive that this game is a combination of boardwalk games (wack a mole..toss a ball) and "rides" you can go on. There are five "themes" to the park. you play games (at each theme..one is always free) you do well enough and you are awarded tickets to play at other games. the goal is to "Purchase" all the toys at the themes vender unlocking the "Ride" which turns into yet another competition game. Like I said, its ok. but not great.
