The rides have such great names as "Colossal Coronary," "Loop-O-Puke,"
and "Vomit Comet."

But the ending is a real dud.
The sound effects are really good (and some of them are clues to the
puzzle). In general, I found "At the Carnival" to be *much* easier than
"The Fool's Errand" and not quite as engrossing. But it's still worth
the $27 (MacConnection price).
