Circus Circus: Chicken-in-a-Pot.

Circus Circus: Chicken-in-a-Pot

Field review by the editors.

Las Vegas, Nevada

Sure, it's a gambling casino. But Circus Circus maintains pockets of things to keep the kids distracted while dad quadruples their college fund. There's a wall-size Circus Downs horse race game, and other competitions with racing camels and clowns.

The most interesting challenge is on the "carnival midway": A Chicken-in-a-Pot.

Hit a button with a mallet, trigger a catapult, send a rubber chicken flying through the air into a cooking pot, win a prize (a plush fowl or unicorn, depending on the player's degree of success).

No betting, just playing; kids welcome.
