Wonderworld Amusement Park more amusing than we thought

Majesco's theme park ... themed minigame collection, Wonderworld Amusement Park, makes no effort to limit itself to games that are actually played in theme parks. IGN has described a selection of minigames found in the park's five zones. Surprisingly, they exceed the expected level of weirdness by a wide margin. For example, Sky Cannon involves shooting your avatar out of a cannon and flying through objects (which are no doubt ring-shaped). Even the most carnival-game-like minigames have bizarre twists -- the "Tunnel of Love" is about Cupid protecting couples from zombies.

In fact, one of the zones is "Spooky" in nature, which lends itself nicely to zombie hijinks. One of the other described games, for example, and the one that's going to sell copies, is Brain Dump, in which you toss brains into zombies' heads. Once again, Majesco has taken something that should be forgettable, low-budget dross and forced us to be interested.
