Shrek's Carnival Craze

Game is really cute and fun. Easy & Medium level games. You will need to play in Storymode to unlock all the games and videos. There are approx 24 fairytale mini-games, which are totally addicting little games. After you unlock 24 games, you get an additional 4 games (there should be 28 mini games). The games are really easy, but not easy enough to get bored (there is hardly any reading involved - except just a quick note before each mini-game, explaining what you will need to do to win - the games are self explanitory). They are totally fun and this game will become a family classic (even my husband, who's a non gamer, loves this game-- my 5 year old showed him how to play it, now he wont put the game down). There are a lot of toss and throw games (the types of games that you would play at the real carnival or TownFair/StateFair, to win a big stuffed animal). Also, there are a lot of racing games too. My 5 year old and I both love this game. We have a hard time, putting down the DS once we start playing this game. A great way, just to pass time. Super awesome for kids between the ages of 5-12, if they like the carnival or fairytales (PS. We have not even seen a Shrek Movie yet, we bought the game because we wanted a ton of mini games, and the fairytales scene was a plus). Also, I wanted to point out that the visual are very nice and colorful, graphics are fun and vivid. Great Graphics, very entertaining. If you are a parent who is not big into video games, I'm sure you would like this game too.

I bought this for a Christmas gift for my 10 and 6 year old to share. They love it, especially my 6 (almost 7) year old. She has played more than her sister, but both enjoy this one. Great Purchase!
