If you’re looking for a game to get the whole family gathered around the TV - or your Nintendo Switch in tabletop mode - during the school holidays or at a party, Carnival Games offers plenty of silly mini-games to get everyone swinging their Joy-Con. It’s nothing remarkable, but the new games do offer a little more variety than the previous versions, so if you’re looking for a quick pick-up-and-play alternative to Super Mario Party, this colourful collection could be the virtual funfair trip for you.

I’m aware that Carnival Games doesn’t need my approval, but even with an open mind, I came away disappointed. I will always think fondly of my time with Wii-era party games and mini-game collections, but the Carnival Games revival will not be my preferred method of reliving that charming and gimmicky time period. Maybe this was a series worth leaving buried.

Se siete dei giocatori esperti, probabilmente Carnival Games non è il titolo che state cercando, e fatica anche a farsi apprezzare anche da semplici giocatori occasionali se in solitaria perchè non è quello il target del titolo. Il discorso cambia nel caso si disponga della giusta compagnia: senza prendere i giochi sul serio ed in un clima festoso, si riescono a dimenticare facilmente alcuni dei problemi che affliggono il gioco e si pensa unicamente a divertirsi.

Carnival Games è un titolo che forse può divertire adulti e bambini, a patto che nessuno di essi abbia delle richieste particolari o si aspetti chissà che cosa dalla produzione 2K Games. Buona volontà, idee e atmosfera a parte, i difetti del titolo sono troppi e troppo evidenti per riuscire a chiudere un occhio (o entrambi gli occhi): i minigiochi sono pochi e anonimi, privi di particolare originalità e per di più realizzati in modo superficiale.

Dit komt vooral door het gebrek aan afwisseling en het kleine aantal minigames. Toch is de game een titel om eens te spelen en dan bij voorkeur met vrienden tijdens een feestje of bijvoorbeeld tijdens de feestdagen met familie. Al kun je dit (op de Switch) ook met een andere hele bekende partygame doen, waar veel meer minigames in te vinden zijn.
