Review Date: January 25, 2010
Reviewer: Kathy Wittenauer, Clinton, IA
This is a great game!! I read a couple of reviews on this game before I bought it and was disappointed to find that noone liked the game after they bought it. My kids love this game...I have a 6 year old son and a 14 year old son...so this game is for all ages. There are lots of fun activities that the characters can do with your help....like flying out of a canon....riding a trike with a clown(race)....and riding a unicycle on a tightrope. There are too many activities to mention them all....but if you complete the activites your receive tickets to buy prizes....circus prizes. It really is great fun....my son is always calling me into the room to watch him play and earn prizes. This is good, clean fun for all ages.

I bought this for my 4 1/2 yr old and she loves taking care of the elephant & playing with it. I just wish there were more circus animals she could do that with.

Review Date: April 26, 2010
Reviewer: Chris Devers,
Got this (and also Go, Diego, Go!: Great Dinosaur Rescue) for my son's 4th birthday, as he seems ready to start playing a little bit of video games now (e.g. he loves the Lego Star Wars games).

The game is really clunky though, and very frustrating.

* You can't use your Mii, you have to set up a whole new character to play

* In setting up the character, they have an ABCDE keyboard, not a QWERTY one. (Obviously the game designers have never read _The Psychology of Everyday Things_ :-)

* The actual game controls are very fiddly, and in many cases there's an apparent disconnect between what you're trying to do with the Wii Remote and what's actually happening on screen.

In the end, he was still basically happy with it -- he's a 4 year old, he loves the circus, he's easy to please -- but he was obviously getting pretty frustrated with it, and kept wanting his parents to help him.

The Diego Dinosaur game ended up being much more age-appropriate, and indeed that's the one he wants to keep playing now. Maybe he'll come back to the Ringling Bros game later when he's more proficient with how to play.
