Most of the game features a circus theme focused more on humor. It features claymation-style graphics that were created by photographing and digitized actual clay models.

The game was one of the two "clay"-themed game franchises made by Interplay Productions, the second being a platformer released for the SNES titled Claymates.

In July 2020, Megalopolis Toys made a partnership with Interplay to release a line of 6-inch action figures based on the games.
