Things get a bit more cerebral in Critter Corral, a western themed take on Chinese Checkers. Ultimately it's a fun if shallow arcade platformer in a similar vein way to Burger Time. To protect yourself, you have a limited number of laser blasts that will temporarily stun them, but being a kids game they're still easy enough to avoid. If you get hit on the bottom shelf, you will lose a life. Toy robots are patrolling the shelves and if one of them touches you, you will drop to the shelf below. As Buzz Lightyear, you travel across shelves dropping rocket ship parts into place so you can reach Emperor Zurg and gut out hs Duracells.

Your phasers are set to Stun in Toy Shelf Showdown (right). The cars, trucks and fire engines that rush across the screen are imbalanced and poorly placed with some levels requiring cars to spin out of the cone's way in order to succeed. While entirely playable, Cone Chaos remains the worst mini-game of the four. Cars will swerve if the cone stands still although fire engines will just plough straight through. You have to guide a number of toys hidden under traffic cones across a busy street.

First up is Cone Chaos, a re-skinned version of Frogger. All four games are worthy time-wasters with deeper gameplay than the usual fare. The Pixar Activity Centres often fare better than their Disney counterparts with an art style and creativity to match the big screen counterparts. Like its toy-themed predecessor, the Pixar touch elevates every element to be one of the better kid-friendly collections in the series.

In 1999, to coincide with the release of Pixar's fan-favourite sequel in cinemas, Toy Story 2: Activity Centre collated 4 games, a comic creator and a print studio in one package.
