About this game

MotionArea turns your phone into a motion console for the whole family. No controllers, no cables, nothing extra to buy: the phone's camera follows your whole body, and you play by moving. Your animal copies everything you do.

SIX GAMES
• Jungle Run: run on the spot to race through a winding jungle, lean to change lanes, jump the logs and duck the branches.
• Gold Rain: gold falls from the sky. Lean left and right to run under it and catch it, and dodge the bombs.
• Red Light, Green Light: run while the giant hunter sings, and freeze when he turns round!
• Wall Rush: walls are coming. Make the shape of the hole with your body, or splash into the lake.
• Snowball Towers: scoop snow, let the machine make snowballs, raise your hand to aim and throw to knock down the other tower's snowmen.
• Floor Piano: jump onto the glowing tiles as they come down and play famous tunes with your feet.

HOW TO PLAY
• Stand the phone up with its main (back) camera facing the room, and step back 2–3 metres.
• Show the phone's screen on your TV (screen mirroring or a USB-C to HDMI cable).
• Just stand in view to join; up to four players.
• Raise a hand to point, like a mouse: hold it on a game or a button to choose it. No need to walk back to the phone.

PRIVACY
The camera picture is never shown, recorded or sent anywhere. It is processed only on the phone to follow the players' movements; on screen you see simple silhouettes and your animals. MotionArea is free. No accounts and no in-app purchases.

GOOD TO KNOW
• Requires Android 8.0 or later and a phone with a camera.
• Chromecast mirroring can lag by 1–2 seconds; Miracast / Smart View or an HDMI cable works better. Turn on your TV's Game Mode.
• Touch mode lets one player play some games without the camera.
