Putt-Putt Joins the Circus is a video game and the sixth of adventure game of the Putt-Putt series of games. It was developed by Humongous Entertainment and published by Infogrames in 2000. This is the last of two games to feature Nancy Cartwright as the voice of Putt-Putt.
Plot
Putt-Putt (voiced by Nancy Cartwright) and Pep go to see B.J. Sweeney's Big Top Circus in Apple Valley. They hop on board Roll-Along Cassidy the circus train after a goat eats their ticket. When they reach Apple Valley, they meet B.J. Sweeney, crying because the circus' five main acts aren't put together. The five main acts are Honko the Clown, the Flying Porkowskis, Philippe the Flea, Reginald the Lion and his tiger assistants, Teri and Marie, and Katie Cannonball. Putt-Putt offers to help out and he must search the circus grounds for the performers so they will practice and finally perform for opening night. During his quest, he meets the elephants, Baby Jambo and Mama Mombasa, Sebestian the Juggling Seal, Francine the High-Diving Hippo, Eunice the Unicycle, Bette Bandwagon, Hank the Security Car, Ivan the Strong Van, and all the other circus performers and animals to help them get ready for opening night as well. After Putt-Putt fixes the acts, Mr. Sweeney lets him be part of the show.
Gameplay
The game uses the same mechanics as its predecessors including Putt-Putt's dashboard interface and some minigames included. Throughout the game the player must solve characters' problems and unite all five circus actors.
