The question was "was there any fun to be had".
When you take any answer to that question and strip it down to the raw base you get something resembling a "yes or no" answer. There's really no need for a comparison to be made.
But, even though your question doesn't directly relate to what OP was asking, I will try to answer anyway.
"How fun is it"
Answer: "It's a blast", "It's TONS of fun", "It's the most boring thing I've ever had to endure on the face of this planet", "You would enjoy it a lot, but it's not my thing", etc...
Comparing it to something else is definately ONE WAY to convey "how fun" it is on to someone else, but it definately isn't necessary.
