 Not very good.. July 24, 2008
Mr. J. P. Gaskell (Cheshire, UK)
YES, it's cheap, and yes, it has 25 different games.. but...
MOST OF THE MINI GAMES ARE TOO EASY AND SIMPLE TO BE FUN
THE MINI GAMES SUFER FROM BAD CONTROLS
GRAPHICS ARE BAD
also, there just isn't enough depth to the game, gets boring after half an hour.
But... it's a cheap laugh and I suppose that's why it sells
 It is what it is - lighten up! July 22, 2008

If you don't like this sort of thing at fun fairs then, duh! of course you'll hate Carnival. But for me it's a great interpretation of the real thing and I enjoy it for the brief light-hearted entertainment it's meant to be. Whoever said side shows were meant to be intellectually challenging...?
P.S. The Ringmaster's demonstrations make it perfect for learning how to control the Wiimote.

Mr. D. Thompson (leeds)
very unimpressed by this game. i liked the idea of a series of fun games to get your mates involved, but right from the offset i was dissapointed by the lack of skill and depth in it.
there are only 3 actions to play the games, swing the remote underarm as if throwing a ball - throw overarm - and aim and press a button.
it really is dull as dishwater - i played about 4 of the games and after realising how little enjoyment or challenge there was i switched it off.
i gave it a quick go the next day and tried all the games - but it just wasnt worth keeping with - there may well be some extras to unlock - but i really didnt have any urge to fidn out as it took repeating the same boring games over and over again.
if your into your gaming there is nothing for you here - if you are unfamiliar with consoles and video games you might get some measure out of these very simplistic - unchallenging mini games.
rayman and sonic and mario are much better fun for mini games.
Not a Classic but the Wii was made for this kind of game July 17, 2008

If, like me, you own a Wii to experience a totally unique type of video-game & despite owning a host of games, keep going back to good-old Wii Sports, then spending 15 on Carnival should be money well-spent.
The graphics are average at best, it's hardly mind-blowing and overall it could have been much better but there's still loads to enjoy with the style of this game. You can literally pick it up for 5 minutes or spend an hour or more playing it. Great with friends (although admittedly there can be a lot of waiting around at many of the "stalls") and great fun on your own as you try to win prizes, I enjoy playing alone or with others.
Some of the games are ridiculously addictive yet at the other end of the scale some are just plain stupid. Who doesn't enjoy shooting hoops or blasting away at ducks ? Equally why on earth do I want to try and keep a steady hand to move a hoop over an electricfied piece of bendy wire or throw a coin onto a flat plate ?
Carnival's far from perfect but for 15 or even less it's a worthy addition to a totally different type of console. Good clean fun
great fun!! July 16, 2008
R. Ford (somerset, UK)
I bought this game because of the price and for my nieces. Me and my older brother tried it out for ten minutes and ended up playing it for 4 hours, unlocking games and winning prizes. I am a ps3 owner and bought a wii for family and friends. I havnt touched my ps3 since!!!
