Trust me. It's not good.
So I read the reviews. Most talking about having to unlock motion controls or various games. The old one made you unlock games too so I thought eh that's not that big of a deal. It gives me some kind of goal. And heck for $20 how bad could it be right?
Well, the graphics are terrible for a game originally sold at $50. The controls and UI are confusing. The games are very basic (not like some of the delightfully difficult games in the original). There are no special game versions like the old one. When you play split screen games, it does a full four-way split even if you're playing with AIs, so it's hard to see. It's slow to load everything. The algorithm for earning tickets is all over the place. You may earn 40 tickets for first place or you may earn 3. And once you do unlock all the games (it took us less than an hour) there's no real goal to work towards other than some weird outfit items. Oh and the games aren't real carnival games. Most are just weird made up mini games with a carnival vibe.
Unless this game drops to like $10 do not buy it.
