Shrek's Carnival Craze Party Games 

 

Every single year I think we have finally put Shrek to bed, a new movie comes out. Which means new games. A reader requested we review Shrek’s Carnival Craze Party Games on the Nintendo DS. I do not believe party games work well on the hand held. That is my opinion, and you can do with that what you will.

The visuals in Shrek’s Carnival Craze Party Games are lacking. This hand held game tries to show scenes from the movie, but the poor frame rate, resolution, and pixilation make it a painful experience. The graphics get a bit better in the mini games. Although they generally stay simplistic. There is cartoon violence, and comic mischief in Shrek’s Carnival Craze Party Games.

The mini games fit into one of two categories. Really easy, or insanely difficult. Shrek’s Carnival Craze Party Games is also light on those mini games. It does not take long to blitz through this game. There are few mini games in Shrek’s Carnival Craze Party Games that warrant a second look. Whether you are ring tossing snakes, or launching frogs into cups.

It was painful to play some of the mini games in Shrek’s Carnival Craze Party Games too. Racing the prince over hurdles either controlled perfectly, or not at all. Putting the Gingerbread man pieces back on was actually mildly entertaining. Once I figured out the difference between an arm and a leg. Yeah those graphics really hurt the game play.

Families can take on the role of a variety of different Shrek characters from Shrek’s Carnival Craze Party Games. Once you have played the twenty-eight mini games with one character there is little reason to play with another one. Unless you absolutely adore the mini games in this hand held video game.

There are some gross moments in Shrek’s Carnival Craze Party Games. If your family enjoys the movies then you know what kinds of things to expect in a video game. The Wii version may be better than the Nintendo DS.
