My kids were so happy when I told them we were going to review Kinectimals for Xbox 360. I had never heard of the game before, but Jake knew about it and couldn’t wait to play it. He was happy we were heading out to Sears to buy the game before he left for Boy Scout camp. He was able to play with Chelsea and Chloe a bunch on Saturday.

When you meet your Kinectimals™ cub for the first time, something magical happens. A friendship is immediately formed, and you quickly begin imagining all the wonderful places you’ll explore and the curious things you’ll discover together. Kinectimals has five different exotic animals to choose from, each one of them more adorable than the next. Teach them commands, play with your animal and compete in contests. This is the beginning of a wonderful and lasting friendship.

I think the kids were kind of surprised that some of the games were a bit hard. Not incredibly hard, but they really had to practice. Some of the games took longer (than he expected) for my gamer son to master. But everyone really liked them! In the end they were all happy it wasn’t a piece of cake. They are having fun trying to be better than their siblings. There are all kinds of little stories and you feel like you are about to head out on a fun adventure with your adorable animal. Overall the whole game is pure cuteness.

Here is a video of Chloe playing Kinectimals. Sorry the video is a bit dark, it is not letting me edit it. But I think you can see how cute this game is, and how much Chloe likes it. I need to video all the kids playing, but their schedules were so crazy and Jake and Chelsea are not home! When the three of them take turns it is even more fun. :)
