Are carnival-style games still available in Taiwanese night markets?

They definitely still exist – they’re more common in the southern part of Taiwan, but if you’re looking in Taipei, the one near Fu Jen University had quite a bunch last time I went. https://guidetotaipei.com/visit/fu-jen-university-fu-da-garden-night-market-%E8%BC%94%E5%A4%A7%E8%8A%B1%E5%9C%92%E5%A4%9C%E5%B8%82

The answer is yes, and here are my sources:

Night Markets in Taiwan on Wikipedia:

Carnival-style games are typically available to play for the price of
a few coins. The night market in Tamsui is especially well known for
featuring traditional carnival games such as balloon shooting, net
fish, shooting marbles, and an assortment of mini games that could
only have otherwise been seen many years ago.

Now, that may have been edited, because almost word for word on FormosaTravel they state the same, but about a different market. Presumably it’s true for both.

In addition, carnival-style games are typically available to play for
the price of a few coins. The night market in Dan-shui especially
features some traditional carnival games. Such as balloon shooting,
net fish, shooting marbles and many mini games.

Finally, an article on AspirantSG, entitled Carnival Of Food & Games At Wusheng Night Market 武聖夜市 Tainan features Wusheng Night Market, and has plenty of photos as evidence of games.
