Gameplay

The first game in the Fun Labs range is Bobble Head. In Bobble Head, the player can put little fun costumes on their friends and collect them all in little bobble heads. The second game is Avatar Kinect. In Avatar Kinect, the players' avatar can act and it tracks their mouth so their lips will move. Kinect also knows where the players' cheekbones are, their eyebrows, so they can make them go up and down.[1] The third game in the Fun Labs range is Depth Video. In Depth Video, when the player steps in front of Kinect it captures their likeness and suddenly there they are in the game.[2]

Reception

Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Video game wikidata' not found. Kinect Fun Labs received "generally favorable" reviews according to review aggregator Metacritic.[3]

Dan Whitehead on Eurogamer stated that "Mostly, it's disappointing that the technology on display feels so clumsy. It feels like a step backwards for Kinect, displaying its limitations more than its strengths - right when mainstream developers are starting to do interesting things with the device outside of the obvious motion control applications."[4]

GamePro stated that "Kinect Fun Labs displays some creative ideas, asks its boss what they think is cool, and then it tries to decide where to go from there."[3]
