Amazon.com Review:
Putt-Putt and Pep are on their way to the circus, and they're looking forward to three rings of fun. Unfortunately, a hungry goat eats their ticket, so the car and his canine pal must earn their way to a ringside seat. Fortunately, the circus owner has some serious problems, and he enlists Putt-Putt to solve them. The reward--if he succeeds in getting the circus up and running--is a free lifetime ticket to the big top.
Putt-Putt Joins the Circus is a role-playing adventure for children between 3 and 8 years of age. The various circus performers are all refusing to do their shows, and Putt-Putt must change their minds, either by finding a lost item or winning a simple arcade-style challenge. The puzzles and arcade games are easy and straightforward, and users will find extensive animated sequences sprinkled throughout the story. Along the way, they can help out a number of talking vehicles and friendly circus animals. One word of warning: older players may find the animations too lengthy, and the simplicity of the challenges means they will finish the game quickly.
Putt-Putt is an appealing character and he shines in this game, which features large, colorful graphics, great sound, good humor, and a nice mix of storytelling and problem solving. Putt-Putt Joins the Circus also comes with a parent/teacher guide, which suggests methods of reinforcing the lessons of teamwork and kindness that are the game's themes, a nice supplement to the gaming experience. --Alyx Dellamonica

- Superb Kids Game
I purchased this for a friends daughter having purchased the whole series for my son (18 now).Each of the Humongous adventure games teaches children teamwork, problem solving and manners in a graphically entertaining interface.The games engage the child's interests and provide hours of good, clean fun!My son has very proficient problem solving capibilities which I attribute to his Humoungous game playing. Freddi the Fish is a female "can do it" character which he also enjoyed (and I liked since ... Read More
Rating: - Runs on Linux!
Appears to run great on Linux Wine (Google it).Runs full screen - not all games will do so (like Jumpstart Toddlers which runs fine, but won't switch to fullscreen).My three year old loves it, though 3 may be a little young for this game.5 stars, given that you can get very cheap.Also, it will run on very old computers.(Even if they are running Linux)
Rating: - For my 16 grandchildren
Brilliant game- kept the grandchildren occupied for hours - and they're still playing the game (and so are their parents)

- StoryMaker's Putt-Putt Circus Review
It annoys me how it never changes. Hey, Humongous Entertainment! Just because the Time Travels game gets bad reveiws for its complexidy dosen't mean your new game should never change! Anyways, I also do not like how you put Philipe and his flea circus gang on Pep. I made up Action Peps, lots of Peplike dogs (Regular Pep, the original, is one of them) and Mean Action Putt-Putts (but Regular Putt-Putt is good). And the bear you take them off of has to be pretty small because when you press the arrow button ... Read More
Rating: - Putt-Putt is great
I got putt putt with a computer that i had bought as one of the disks included. My son was 2 at the time and loved playing this game with me looking for missing clues and helping to put them together. now at 3 yrs of age he plays all by himself with it and knows exactly where to go each time he starts over.
