This game is broken and does not start up. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times. My PC is above and beyond the minimum requirements to run the game. I play many other titles on my Steam Index VR. This company needs to fix the game. DO NOT PURCHASE UNTIL YOU RESEARCH THAT ITS WORKING. This post is @ 12/12/2022
the game is really fun, but it not compatible to steam. just buy it through VR.
I really recommend Carnival Games for VR. It is SO MUCH FUN! It is similar to the Nintendo Switch version, but better in VR. Gameplay is smooth, and response quick. No problems at all, no glitches. Make sure you buy the Alley Adventure add-on as this gives you the complete Carnival fair ground to play with. I give this game 10 stars and recommend for families, friends or solo.
Don't buy can't play the game crashes everytime i go to the first and only area. i have a oculus quest. i really wanted this game played it last year and was good. but people say they have no support anymore. and i tried to get it working but not much help out there.
Waste of money, don't buy! Doesn't work.
I've tried this on 3 different VR ready systems.
One system running an i7 with a GTX1080 - doesn't run at all
One system running an i5 with a GTX980 - Loads but crashes as soon as you try to start a game
One system running an i9 with a RTX2070 - loads but crashes as soon as you try to state a game.
Broken Game: DO NOT BUY
This might still work for Vive users, but as you might have noticed from other reviews, this game crashes when trying to launch the first game. You cannot actually play this in any way with most headsets, and 2K has made it clear they won't be doing anything to update or fix the game.
game is broken and havent been fixed for more than a year
dont buy
edit:
so after 2 years of writing this review i updated my pc i went from intel i7-4790k to i9-12900k and from radion 290 to 3080ti and i tried launching the game and it worked. why you ask i have no idea
fyi the game used to run fine on my old pc for about a year then it stopped
This game will ONLY work with an NVIDIA graphics card!!!!
I recently upgraded from an AMD RX Vega 56 to an NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1080ti. This game would crash on opening whenever I tried to run it with my AMD card, after swapping to an NVIDIA card the game works just fine.
It's a great, fun game but I am extremely disappointed that it does not work with AMD cards.
Game doesn't work. Crashes every time I enter the first carnival game(Don't get to play it for even a second) and the Devs will never fix this. DO. NOT. BUY
I just bouight the DLC and jumped back into this game and its completely unplayable now it crashes during the first game you play everytime! this was one of my favorite VR games but is now completley unplayable they better fix this issue soon.
DO NOT BUY IN THIS CURRENT STATE UNTILL EVERYTHING IS FIXED AGAIN!
Had the game for a while now including DLC and has been a favorite of mine, but recently game continuously crashes no matter what the settings, i notice a lot of other users are suffering the same, also you will notice most of the positive reviews date back to a time when the game actually worked. come on Cat Daddy do something about it!
Game crashes 10-15 minutes into play. No longer playable until fixed, if ever. Was a great game to let people try VR for the first time. Shame really.
LOVED this game! It was my 'goto' experience when I felt like relaxing at night or to showoff my VR. I never had a problem with it, it seemed polished and done. Then after an update, for me it was at random times, it suddenly would freeze up so deeply I had to reboot Steam if not the computer to get out of the crash. I have over 400 experiences, this was the only one with this problem. But according to the forums just about everyone who bought this now has the same issue. It's broken. And the Devs have not ever responded to problem and seem to have left their customers dead in the water. After taking your money of course. So altho it WAS a great game, I have to say its defintely not worth the purchase, not anymore.
To Steam's credit, I will say that altho I was waaaay beyond the refund period, once I explained the reason for requesting a refund, as a good gesture I was refunded.
This game works well in Windows Mixed Reality with Revive installed. Really love this game. The graphics are great, and the games super fun. The biggest issue with WMR is that the tracking system makes some games not very accurate. The ball toss for example won't work well unless you keep the ball in your field of vision at all times. I was able to get good results by turning with the ball and following it as I throw it. Shooting Gallery works perfectly. Climbing wall is great fun. I found it hard to be very accurate with Skee Ball though. Overall though, a very polished VR game that played without a single graphical hiccup.
Of these carnival minigames type of games, this is the best one imo. There are 2 really fun levels: The climbing level is better than any fully dedicated climbing game imo and the ghost ride is something I probably played for over an hour itself. I really wish those 2 games were expanded to include more levels!
I get sound, but the visual only shows up on my monitor. My headset goes black twice and then sets at the home screen. Tracking perfectly while I hear the game and visual is on the monitor. I've gone through everything I can think of and EVERY OTHER GAME runs perfectly. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game 3 times, verified it... tried several display changes... but again, it's ONLY this game so I'm at a complete loss what about THIS game isn't working....
Carnival Games VR is a pretty self-explanatory game. You go to a "carnival" and play stuff like the ring toss or knocking over bottles with a baseball. The difference here is that the games aren't all rigged so you'll lose. In fact, it's quite the opposite. The games all seem rigged so that even if you screw up spectactularly, you will still get some tickets.
I've only seen a couple of the areas to play in so far, because you need to spend tickets to unlock new stuff. That's kinda neat since it forces you to play the games for a little before advancing to another, but it's also kinda annoying since each game area uses its own set of tickets. If I go to do the shooting gallery and earn 25 tickets and then leave that area to go to the next area, It will say I've got 0 tickets because I didn't earn them in that zone.
I guess that's not that big of a deal since you're only going to unlock a game or two and then a new area, and there's a ton of crappy toys to spend tickets on...but I still kinda found that annoying.
Speaking of annoying, there's a carnival barker there in EVERY scene talking in an EXTREMELY exaggerated WAY that YOU will QUICKLY find TIRING! OH and HE has TO comment ON everything YOU do AND there's NO way TO shut HIM up WITHOUT silencing HIM completely! He doesn't even sound like the stereotypical barker either.
Example: I go to play the ring toss. I throw one ring and he says "this DOESN'T look LIKE your GAME!" and then I throw another ring and it lands on the highest scoring point value and he says "i LOVE to SEE a MASTER at WORK!". They should definitely tone this guy down a bit. I could understand him saying I suck if I screwed up multiple times in a row, and I could understand him saying I was a master if I was doing extremely well over the course of the game, but it seems like he can go from "YOU SUCK" to "YOU'RE AWESOME" in no time at all.
Another annoying thing (and it could just be the way things are set up for me) is that the game puts stuff just out of reach, and when I reach for it or move to grab it, the whole screen goes black and it tells me to recenter my play space. It's not really well made for Room scale, and the standing playspace it uses is really kinda small. Is this game aimed at Rift users?
Graphics are decent, the areas are colorful, and there does seem to be a slightly cartoony carnival vibe to the whole place. Everything is well polished and it looks fun enough, but as far as I know, the game is played solo, so you'll just be going for your own personal high score and any friends who happen to have it will also show on a leaderboard.
Pros:
- Nice graphics
- There's some fun games to play
- It's not too difficult or rigged so you'll fail
- You can win some silly stuffed animal toys and there's an area for you to play with them in.
Cons:
- The Barker is annoying
- The aiming scheme with your controllers on the Vive is awkward
- Some of the toys don't even seem to work properly
[*] It's single-player where having a friend play side-by-side would have been great.
Looking at the store page it says it supports the Vive only, and Room scale, so maybe there's an option somewhere that's missing. I know it's set for room scale in VR because in virtually every other game I can move around the room easily. It still doesn't explain the awkward way you have to select items.
Overall this is still a fun game, and it's worth playing, but don't buy it expecting multiplayer, and you might want to turn the volume on that Barker guy way down.
I was actually entertained by this game, and I think it's perfect for first time VR players. $5 well spent on this without a doubt.
PROS
-Colorful immersive atmosphere with a lot of moving objects
-The scaling is pretty good and makes you feel like the games are mean't to be played with effort
-The sensitivity of throwing objects is well balanced to where it doesn't make you sling your controller away
-Nice progression concept that encourages you to replay the games
-Very good for kids and first time VR players
-Very easy on GPU/ CPU
Cons
-Too short or not enough games/ zones BUT the ones that are availible have very high replay value
-The pointer method in game is somewhat intuitive but not
-The in-game instructor needs to be a little less vocal
-The playspace boundaries are kind of small even if you are in standing mode
Overall it's a worthwhile purchase, and the cons may vary upon the player. I'm happy I own this title.
As a fan of this game series since I first played on the wii, I was more than eager to play it in virtual reality and I must say I was not disappointed!
With 12 carnival games ranging from rock climbing an intense death course to a haunted house shootout, there is alot to enjoy about this game!
Also when you earn tickets from the games you have played, you can use them to purchase all sorts of prizes!
The game also feels very immersive and feels like a very polished vr title.
Overall I believe this is one of the best vr games on the market and is definitely worth every cent!
9.5/10
LISTEN TO ME, the climbing wall mini game. HOLY HELL. One of the best VR experiences I have had yet. Is it worth $20? I don't want to tell you how to spend your money. Nor do I want to set you up for disappointment, because it is a short mini game. But one second you're tossing balls at milk bottles and thinking, yeah this alright. Then you switch to climbing wall. HOLY CRAP. You're sweating your balls off climbing around an obstacle course of doom. Its intense.
Overall, Carnival games is polished and to the point. Its a collection of mini games that lend itself to VR very well. I say you already blew all this damn money on a vive, what's twenty more dollars?
As a huge fan of Pierhead Arcade and someone happy with Nvidia Funhouse, there wasn't really a need for Carnival Games VR in my life, right? Wrong. Carnival Games VR is a great experience with Golden Arm, Fast Pitch, Ring Toss, Shooting Gallery, Haunted House, Funnel Cake Catch, Quick Basketball Throw, Skee Ball, a challenging Climbing Wall, Down the Stretch horse racing, Balloon Pop Darts and a Dunk Tank. It takes elements that people have sold in full game experiences and makes them short and fun exercises that can make for a quick demo for friends or have you angling for the top of the leaderboards.
I figured I would start out with all of the games readily available but instead, the developers made it a challenge. To unlock all of the minigames you have to earn tickets in the games starting with Golden Arm and working your way through each of them like a challenge. You can also use tickets to trade for prizes you can then look at and play with in a separate playroom.
I was surprised at the depth of Carnival Games VR, figuring I'd play for 20 minutes, make a video for my YouTube channel and leave. Instead within the first couple of hours the game was available, I extinguished the remainder of my controller batteries and played for over an hour.
Carnival Games VR is not for everyone but it brings a true AAA developer's concept to VR in a fun way that I will definitely share with friends and family. It's more expensive than my favorite Vive title, Pierhead Arcade, at double the price but it has enough variety that I would encourage picking up both. Go for Pierhead first though!
