Nurture, tame and develop your playmate
Kinect performs very well, recognising your vocal commands and gestures consistently throughout. The only thing that did slightly irritate us is how you have to ensure you shout the name of your pet at the camera exactly the way that you recorded it, in exactly the same tone, otherwise your pet can become quite a stubborn creature. However, alongside Dance Central, which we reviewed earlier today, Kinectimals showcases the strengths of the camera peripheral very well, which bodes very well for the future of Kinect.There’s no question that the bond between child and pet grows the further you progress in Kinectimals, because you can't help but be sucked in with the cub's cuteness and Kinect's playability. And that's really where the magic lies. Kids will be able to train their pet effortlessly thanks to the smooth control scheme, and parents should get joy from watching them having such a great time. If you’ve got Kinect and have kids, we can’t recommend Kinectimals highly enough.Your young ones may also gain delight, though parents who have to fork out for it may not, from buying one of the Kinectimal cuddly toys that you can scan into the game. Overall, it seems Microsoft has all bases covered in this particular genre.
