Carnival Games: Monkey See, Monkey Do
© 2011 2K Play
Fun but at times clumsy to control because of the Kinect, this set of 20 carnival inspired games does a good job keeping you moving. You leap into the air on a Rocket to Mars, catch coins on a roller coaster, twist your body in Crash Test Dummy, avoid tornadoes by pumping your arms as fast as possible in Hot Air Balloon Race, copy a monkey with the Monkey Barker in Monkey See, Monkey Do, and more. A voice recognition activity allows The Amazing Wodin, a wizard, to advise you of your future. The better you do, the more prizes you can win, including pets and clothing for your avatar. Designed for one or two players. Note that the Kinect sensor is required. All in all, this is one of the better Kinect games with good graphics, sounds and variety. Developed by Cat Daddy Games.
