Toontown may sound kind of weird at first, but once you get the hang of it, you can't stop.
Every toon starts out with access to "throw" and "squirt" gags to use on the cogs. Since cogs can't take a joke, eventually they will be destroyed when you use enough gags on them. Some examples of throw gags are cupcakes, cream pies and birthday cakes, while some squirt gags are squirt guns, fire hoses and storm clouds. Each gag track has a different amount of damage and accuracy. To get stronger gags, you must hit cogs with the gag successfully to earn skill points, which make your gags stronger.
A toon also starts out with a laff meter. Cogs will attack you in battle, and when you take enough damage, you will be sent back to the playground. There are gags that allow you to restore laff points to another toon.
There are six different lands-Toontown Central, Donald's Dock, Daisy's Gardens, Minnie's Melodyland, The Brrgh, and Donald's Dreamland. There are items in each land that add more points to your laff meter. Also, the cogs get stronger in each land in that order.
Toons also must complete "toontasks". They will ask you to defeat cogs or visit buildings. The rewards allow you to carry more gags, access new gag tracks, strengthen your laff meter, or make your toon's body parts big or small.
Like I said, Toontown is weird at first, but then it gets fun. I recommend to do the 3-day trial first.
