\"\"Our game rental this month was Toy Story Mania!<\/a> — a carnival-derived bunch of mini-games where you throw darts, shoot wooden animals, and roll marbles along with Woody, Buzz and other fun Toy Story characters.<\/p>\n

The kids liked watching me play, and Audrey was even able to do some of the games in multi-player mode. \u00a0 High scores give you tickets, which you use to purchase new games to play. \u00a0 My first run-through the game seemed rather repetitive and took less than an hour, but then I realized that there were more mini-games to unlock and have fun with.<\/p>\n

The Toy Story characters and storylines were a fun addition that made the game more interesting than a similar carnival game that we rented last year. The one annoyance I had with the characters was that some of the voices weren’t done by the original actors — Tom Hanks has better stuff to do than record lines for some Wii game? Ridiculous!<\/p>\n

The games are grouped by theme, like Bo Peep’s nature tent and Woody’s western area. \u00a0 My favorites were Buzz Lightyear’s space place and the Army guys’ military zone.<\/p>\n

Overall, this was a good rental, but I don’t think it’s one that we’ll be adding to our Wii collection. \u00a0 My final score for Toy Story Mania : 7\/10<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
