Disneynature Explore
© 2014 Disney Consumer Products and Interactive Media
Want to see a fish in your living room? Or the Bear chasing it? This is an augmented reality experience designed to accompany one of the Disneynature movies. It combines an augmented reality experience with an animal-behavior game that "encourages children to get outside and discover nature." 3D animals will appear in the live camera view of your tablet, letting you view the world from the eyes of a monarch butterfly or fish for termites like a chimpanzee. There are five adventures, each with four challenges. As you explore, you can take photos to add them to your Disneynature Journal, target colors and objects, store pictures of each adventure and track progress. Content includes video clips of real animals, a parents’ page, a pin award system, and a Spanish language option. You can't beat the price -- free (the app is designed to help promote the TV programming).
