Carnival Games (Carnival Funfair Games in Europe) feature 25 popular games from classic carnivals, including Clown Splash, Milk Can Toss, Nerves of Steel, Lucky Cups, Hoops, Day at the Races and Dunk Tank. Players can win over 250 upgradeable prizes ranging from a goldfish to giant stuffed animals. Character-customizing items like a pirate's wardrobe and a Viking helmet are also there to be won. The game features a fortune teller who reveals a player's fate for a price. The game received two sequels: Carnival Games: Mini-Golf and New Carnival Games.

Problems

Glitched Mini Game Icons

A small animation is supposed to play when you move the pointer over a mini game icon. With Texture Cache set to Fast, the animation studders and bugs out. Fixed by setting the Texture Cache slider to anything besides fast.
