This is known as „Family Games“ in Japan, which is hysterical because it features scantily-clad Playboy bunnies on its menu screens. Parlour Games offers three separate amusements: billiards, darts, and bingo. Billiards (pool) is surprisingly playable, calling to mind Side Pocket (Genesis, 1992). Aiming the cue takes practice but I like how the the balls click against each other and roll smoothly around the table. There's a wide selection of variations, but that monotonous „piano“ music might get on your nerves after a while. The second game is darts, marred by some of the most ass-backwards controls imaginable. The third entry is „World Bingo“ and it's like nothing I've ever seen. It incorporates a complicated betting system and draws numbers using some crazy slot machine. I really didn't have the patience to figure it out, and since it's a game of luck I really didn't see the point. I'm afraid that even fabulous babes can't hide the fact that Parlour Games is just a weak collection of titles that couldn't stand on their own. It hardly qualifies as a „family“ game, although maybe dad will like it. - www.Videogamecritic.com
