"All the Fun of the Fair!" is what I'd call it.
It would be a multiplayer game for the most part, though I'd throw in a single player 'Story' mode for all the loners out there!
The basic idea of the game would be to play a bunch of games like the ones you get at fairs, including:
Rifle shooting : You can shoot various targets within each scenario to make different things happen, and score points.
Darts : Try to work out the complicated rules of the various darts games, such as score over 50 points to win a prize (doubles and trebles only count as 1 point)
Duck hook : There are lots of plastic ducks floating on a 'pond' you have to hook one to get a prize. To identify which prize you have won, there's a number on the bottom of the duck.
Hoop the bottle : Throw hoops over bottles.
Throw balls in pots : There are different coloured pots, you have to get a red one for a big prize, and a green one for a small prize. All other pots offer no prize. The green and red pots have much smaller opennings that the 'no win' pots.
Can Knockoff : Knock all of the cans off the shelf, with only three badly stained, poorly sticked little sacks filled with peas.
Coconut Shy : The classic knock the coconut off the stand for a prize.
I'm sure that this game would be a hit, as the fair only comes to town once a season, but you can play this wonderful game all year long!
