VIDEO GAME: (rated E for everyone)
Brief Description: In a carnival style, this game, appropriate for all ages including teens and adults, contains 20 different games. From Pop Darts to Ring Toss to Pig Race and even the Strength Test, players will feel as though they're truly at the carnival. Players collect tickets which are good for spending in the four different shops - items to be purchased may include hair and other outfits for your avatar.
Awards: None
Personal Opinion: Of the six Kinect video games I've recently sampled, this one was only moderately entertaining. I can see that I just don't have the skills to excel, which is frustrating, and usually pretty funny; it's obvious that I'll need to really work at getting good at any of the games. It's definitely for younger kids, but the entire family will find something to entertain them.
Curriculum/Programming: This specific game will be incorporated into my Tuesday afternoon gaming program at the library - it's perfect to draw in the younger kids. I'll serve popcorn and other snacks to complete the carnival atmosphere.
