New Carnival Games

 

 

SCORE: 86

 

New Carnival Games 

 

Do you like the carnival? I have a very positive image of the carnival. Which makes the Nintendo DS version of New Carnival Games a wonderful game for me. Oddities like Zamzeer are in this handheld video game. Players walk around the grounds, and play games they come across. There are just over twenty-five mini games in New Carnival Games. All of these mini games are centered around the carnival.

The visuals are okay in New Carnival Games. Some of the mini games look better than others. Some of the mini games look a little small to me like the Pachinko games, and Going Bananas. Others like Swish It, and Yeti Got Rhythm look a lot better. Seeing the different characters at the carnival is neat, and there are a lot of different accessories.

The carnie sounds in New Carnival Games fit perfectly. I enjoyed listening to this game, and its intelligent directions. The various special effect sounds in New Carnival Games fit the themes, and enhance the experience. I noticed the nonsense fortune telling from Zamzeer. Some families may be bothered by the concept of a fortune teller. I was uneasy at first, until I realized it was like a fortune cookie. I put no faith in it.

New Carnival Games has quite a few fun mini games in it. I enjoyed replaying many of them. Winning various prizes is another reason to replay New Carnival Games. Even though Family Friendly Gaming was given a reviewable copy of New Carnival Games, I believe it is worth the cost. Two players can enjoy New Carnival Games thanks to single card download play.

If you have a Nintendo DSi, this game will take pictures of you after scoring really high in the mini games. This really freaked me out at first, and my expressions show it. New Carnival Games instructs players on how to play the games, and most are easy to learn. A few take some finesse, but practice does make perfect. I had a lot of fun playing New Carnival Games.

I would love to see sequels to this Nintendo DS game in the near future. New Carnival Games teaches concentration mixed with skill provides positive results. I will be recommending New Carnival Games to family, friends, and pastors. Speaking of recommending, I have recommended the editor pursue advertisements of this game on the site. The ducks in this DS game are really cute, and the atmosphere of this game is very family friendly.
