    3 Stars A Kinect Adventure! Review with images 14/11/2011
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages easy to play, good graphics/sound, very interactive and it would be a great game for children

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Games can be repetitive and boring, very boring in single player mode, only five games!

    Kinect Adventures I have had a xbox with the kinect sensor for about 6/7 months now and I really like it, especially as it is very interactive - a lot more than the wii. I received this game as part of a xbox 360 and kinect bundle I think but you can obviously buy it individually. - Main features of the game *As it is an Xbox kinect specific game, you have to have the kinect sensor to play this game *It is rated 3 (but it does contain some content that is rated 12) *It can be a single player game or a two player game *The game has an activity level of: standing - active *Contains five games in ... more

    2 Stars Does the Kinect as much justice as it does damage. Review with images 13/11/2010
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Some really fun games.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No depth, some movement problems are unforgivable.

    Kinect Adventures is included in the bundle when you purchase a Kinect. It’s essentially a collection of mini-games, and although it boasts over 20 different games on the cover – which is technically true – really it’s five mini-games with many different difficulties and goals. I’ve been playing this all day, and it’s very easy to compare this to Wii Sports, which was a similar disc included with the Wii. Make no mistake, Kinect Adventures isn’t brilliant, it has got very little depth and you’ll get bored very, very quickly — but it’s only supposed to be a demonstration, a way for you to try ... more

    3 Stars Only slightly adventurous for a Kinect launch title Review with images 07/12/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Free!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Probably not much longevity compared to other Kinect titles

    Kinect Adventures was the game launched alongside the Xbox Kinect in 2010, and given away with the hardware for consumers to play if they had not yet invested in other titles for the hardware. The game utilises the Kinect motion camera by tracking your body movements in order to control your on screen character. Five Mini Games The game is composed of five mini games based on sports and adventure, which makes it have a bit of a different spin to it rather than being Xbox’s answer to Wii Sports. I will give a breakdown of each game here: 20,000 Leaks Here your avatar is in a glass tank under ... more

    5 Stars I LOVE kinect adventures! 13/11/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Fun, Great For Everyone, Range Of Ages, Entertaining.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Need a Xbox Kinect Which Are Rather Expensive

    Introduction# Ever since i bought my xbox i was waiting until there would be a moment where you wouldn't have to use the controllers. This moment came when i bought my xbox kinect. I loved the fact that you could walk around the room with nothing weighing you down like a remote and you could just play the games! The kinect adventures im sure actually came with the kinect but you can buy it seperately now in most stores which i will come onto later. I will review almost everything possible in thsi review so have put it in sections to make it easier to read! The Disc Packaging# First of all i ... more

    4 Stars Start your own Kinect Adventure! 21/12/2010
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Very addictive, very responsive, & challenging.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Takes a while to get used to the menu system.

    I recently bought Kinect for the Xbox 360, and Kinect Adventures came with it. With Kinect Adventures you can either play on your own, or with a friend. My initial thought when playing Kinect Adventures was that I found it somewhat hard to adapt to its menu system, as it doesn't make it that clear how to do certain types of tasks, such as returning the first main menu, where 3 built in demo's are located. Instead you have to return to the Kinect Hub, and then re-read this disc, which I think is a bit silly. Once you have spent a good hour or so playing Kinect Adventures navigating yourself ... more

    3 Stars Kinect Adventures - Great novelty value that soon wears thin 07/07/2011

    Advantages Advantages good fun, exercise, good for parties, no controllers

    Disadvantages Disadvantages needs a large room, novelty value only, basic games

    I was excited when I bought the X-box Kinect, fantasising about the possiblities of a controller-less console. Perhaps I was expecting too much to think it would be like Call of Duty or Resident Evil!! Kinect Adventures brings a series of easy to play games without controllers and is the first release on the Kinect system for the Xbox 360. Put simply, you use yours hands, feet, head, elbows or whatever you fancy to control everything, kind of like some sort of Jedi Knight but sadly no Skywalkers in sight. At first Kinect Adventures does offer some fun with a fish tank game where you have to ... more

    5 Stars Kinect Adventrues Great Game! 17/03/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Very motivating. Has something for everyone. Keeps you active!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Challenges are repetitive, you can get worn out quickly.

    Kinect Adventures for Xbox 360 is a very fun family oriented game! We purchased this game for its fun activity level, and we got more than expected. It is full of challenges that keep your heart pumping! This game has a little bit of something for everyone. You get to go river rafting… but don’t think you’ll be sitting down for this fun filled version. Jump to collect time clocks and move left and right to avoid obstacles. You will be surprised at how much of a workout this really is! My favorite challenge is the underwater tank. Random fish and sharks attack and crack your glass cage. Be ... more

    4 Stars Kinect Adventures for Xbox 360 10/12/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages great movement

    Disadvantages Disadvantages 2 player game

    About a month ago, we got an Xbox kinect console (which came with Kinect adventures). I was really impressed how well the movement sensory was incorporated into the game. The sensor sees you and then converts you to a cute cartoon character on the screen. After playing for about half an hour, I was already tired, but was actually having fun. There are five different games: River Rafting, Rally ball, Shark Tank, Space Bubbles and the Obstacle Course. They start out pretty easy, but get harder and harder the higher the level. The game comes with 3 levels and several adventures to a level. One of ... more

    4 Stars I love it!...Sort of.... 08/06/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Fun, great for families and childrens parties...

    Disadvantages Disadvantages A few games seem lacking to me but all in all its a good game

    When my husband and I first bought the xbox kinect one of the first games we purchased was kinect adventures, the other being dance central. I was very impressed with how Kinect could track your movements, it was like I was really white water rafting for playing dodge ball. When it comes to Kinect Adventures there are some mini games within it that are awesome and there are some that are quite boring...For instance, white water rafting where you jump for coins guide the boat and go down waterfalls was great! Plugging holes, the game where you basically stand stationary and plug the holes that ... more

    5 Stars Even the teenagers join in! 30/08/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages everyone can play, exercise and have fun all at the same time

    Disadvantages Disadvantages need a large playing space for multiplayer function

    To be honest we haven't played all of the activities on this game yet as we chose to spend time laughing hysterically at each other as we got hit in the face with random objects that we were meant to be avoiding! Like 'family trainer' on the wii, Kinect Adventures is perfect for all the family whatever their age or fitness level - even grandma got in on the fun! We have the advantage of a HUGE playing space and screen for the Kinect and can see how there could be issues with this game if you were trying to play in your living room - or indeed in a bedroom, as the jumping may sound like a herd ... more
