Each time you cast your line, a jellybean is deducted from your pouch, but the potential income from the fish you catch outweighs this cost. The fishing mini-game is fairly simple, as there is a pond in every city where Toons can step onto the wooden platforms and cast their lines. If more than one Toon hops on the trolley before it takes off, then the person who gets the most points is the winner, and in some games, you are pitted directly against up to three other Toons. The trolley games are a collection of fun things to do, including a Pac-Man-like game with Cogs chasing you instead of ghosts, tug of war (where you alternate the arrow keys to keep pace with the power meter), a DDR-esque activity where you match Minnie's dance moves by pressing the corresponding arrow keys, the cannon game where you launch your Toon out of a cannon and try to land in a water tower, an underwater swim game where you try to go through each of the rings, and a catching game where you try to position your Toon to catch apples and avoid dropped anvils. In fact, these games advance your Toons in ways that fighting cannot, with both fishing and the trolley games giving jellybeans (currency of the game), and the kart racing yielding tickets to upgrade your kart.

There is, of course, fighting, but you could never fight and still have a pleasurable gaming experience by playing the mini-games on the trolley, racing your kart, or fishing. The laidback setting of Toontown is definitely a welcome change from the frantic grinding of other MMORPGs. For instance, if you want to tell someone your strategy, you click the speedchat button, move the cursor over 'Battle,' and click on the phrase, 'Attack the strongest one first!' There are ways to chat directly with one other Toon, but it takes a password that can only be entered after registering with a credit card. The only way to communicate with other Toons is with speedchat, a format that sends canned messages to and fro. Most undesirable components of MMORPGs has been eliminated from Toontown Online by removing chat functionality. The evil, over-serious Cogs have invaded Toontown! Do you have what it takes to defeat these cogs with practical jokes and take back the land? In Toontown, you create your own Toon character, play games with friends, furnish your estate, and explore amazing lands.

People in the market for a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) that is family friendly usually do not have many options, but with Disney's Toontown Online, you can let a child of any age play without worrying about them running into any 'undesirables.'
