Description

Finalist - August 2011
POTD - August 15 2011
When you walk through any fairground there are lights and sounds to attract your attention with the purpose of getting you to part with your money. They even supply seating so you can play the games. This game attracted my attention because of the bold colours and EOD. I bet they really wondered what I was doing. No I didn't play the game but maybe I should have.
