Kinectimals (we reviewed the original here) is now a 306MB freeware download, compatible with phones with just 512MB of RAM - don't expect speed, since the game still take up to thirty seconds to start, but after that it's quite fluid and easy to interact with.
One of the many graphics to look at while Kinectimals Unleashed cranks itself slowly into action...
"Gone to the dogs" indeed - the new main title screen...
There are dozens of mini-help screens/tutorials - but don't worry, the game's simple to play, as you might expect!
Tickling my new puppy under the chin....
Argh - one of my pet hates (see what I did there?) - multiple currencies that make little sense...
Playing volleyball, tap to bounce away from the first person perspective....
Ah yes, the inanities pleasure of looking after the non-existent cute, virtual creature....!
