    I saw 20 copies of this game at my game store. its not bad but its just minigames, and that's it and the minigames are either, move arm here occasionally, or its an actual work out. now i know why i saw all of those copies.

    Pretty fun, though the controls can be unresponsive. All the mini games are good and as a kid I loved it.

    Really fun game that's NOT an FPS shooter for the 360. It's really fun to play with family and friends. The only problem is sometimes the Kinect will have problems tracking you, but otherwise, AMAZING!

    Kinect Adventures is an okay game, a fun game for the family to say the least. Kinect Adventures is one of my first real video games growing up, and it’s one I would want to revisit.

    This is the first game I tried with the kinect. My first impressions was that this game is trying to be the Wii. Here we see simple games and kid/family friendly. I guess points for replicating the feel of Nintendo however this is also a minus, as I do not enjoy that style and is the prime reason I own a majority of my games on non Nintendo consoles.

I guess points for replicating the feel of Nintendo however this is also a minus, as I do not enjoy that style and is the prime reason I own a majority of my games on non Nintendo consoles. Regarding the games I felt they were simple and uniquely fun for the most part but also quite similar in gameplay to each other. I felt the in game tutorials were a little bit too fast to learn as a complete noob however think after repeated games this should not be an issue. The kinect sensor was fine and I had no motion capture related complaints. I should note that this was my first kinect game so I made sure to do as many calibration set ups as I could find before starting. I found out surprisingly that being 10 ft away was very important to allow the sensor to capture your full body. At the end of sampling this disc I would say there is one game I enjoyed that seems unique enough from everything else on the market. The other games seem like the majority of kinect games, just move here move there follow the coins and jump. Too simple and lame unless you are a younger child, I would surmise. I guess this is what kinect is going for though, stealing away younger nintendo fans. The game also contains something I find very creepy. It takes photos of you during gameplay and makes a photo album automatically without your permission. If they made this an option that'd be ok I guess but to find out it's just doing that imo is horrifically in bad taste. I feel capturing images are for memories and so this kinda feels like Microsoft is now portraying being a parent, and taking over that responsibility is why I find it in very bad taste. Those memories should come from people only, and only close people, with permission.… Expand

    Posee una buena cantidad de misiones,lo malo es que es hacer lo mismo una y otra vez con diferentes dificultades,por lo que probablemente te niegues a completarlo de forma rápida y solo decidas jugarlo cuando no tienes algo mejor que jugar.

    Ever Since I've bought this game, my life has been on a downward spiral. My girlfriend left me, I lost my job, I'm no longer allowed in the McDonalds Play area, and it's all because of this game. I can't wait till I get the opportunity to personally drop this in the fires of ****.

    This game is dull and boring and since it was a pack-in title for the Kinect, it gave the install base the wrong impression of the Kinect. Most games aren't very fun and are nowhere near as enjoyable and replay-able as Wii Sports is.

    Despues de cinco años de tenerlo cogiendo polvo, por fin me digne a jugarlo y solo puedo decir que es un juego muy entretenido y algo desafiante en los niveles de dificultad mas altos, y como viene incluido con Kinect recomiendo que ustedes tambien le den una oportunidad

    Pretty fun game. You can't play it for ages otherwise it just gets boring but it's better than other Kinect games. The graphics are pretty decent and the activities are quite fun as well. Not too bad.

    This game is not good at all. It is a game I got free with my Xbox 360. It gets very boring after 5 mins and it is a waste of time. If you are thinking about BUYING the game it won't be a good idea it'll just be a waste of your money.

    When I bought the Kinect, this game came with a discount so I bought it to test the Kinect, expecting good things. I was disappointed.The game has a weird variety of only 5 missions, such as preventing a underwater box from leaking.LAME.The only worthwhile activity was rafting with two players. I could easily complete all activities on an intermediate setting in less than an hour.

I recommend this game for little heavy-set games who like to take pictures of themselves and need to get off the couch.… Expand

    A fun party game to play with your friends or family. It was my first game for my 360, and I only played it once, as I was in a rush to get a game that worked with a controller, but I had a lot of fun with it. Play it with a friend.

    Kinect is absolute rubbish. The motion is off, unresponsive, and just plain bad. The game is too hard because of the bad motion controls and just isn't fun. I also don't like Xbox very much.

    This is a OK minigame, obviously nothing I would put over my main games (EG Halo 4, Skyrim). Graphics could need a little work and glitches almost produce a humorous effect.

    Its a guilty pleasure for people of all ages. Anybody young and old will enjoy this game. No doubt one of the best games for the Kinect. Perfect mini-games to play, which technically count as exercise. Anyone with a Kinect should get it.

    I liked it. Its fun to play ,even more so when playing with a friend, and it gives you a good workout as well. The one bad thing about it is that it doesnt have a lot of games to play and its boring playing the same game over and over again. Besides that, Its totally worth owning.

    It has a few mini-games that are somewhat enjoyable for a little while, but it is too simplistic and the game gets boring rather quickly. There are much better Kinect games than this game.

    We had to slog it out to finish this game. It felt more like a chore than a game, but the shining strong-point is the rafting. That, in my opinion, is totally worth playing. It is an easy achievement grab, and if you look to your right you can buy this game for $1.50. If you bought a Kinect recently you may not of had this bundled with it, so go ahead and buy it.

    First when I heard of Kinect, I thought it was a joke. But then I got it for myself and this was the game that came with Kinect. I was impressed with the motion-sense controls. They were good, but sometimes, Kinect just lost me. The graphics are awesome! I don't like that you look like a Lego human or something. Yes, but XBOX Live Avatars look like this.

Yes, but XBOX Live Avatars look like this. There are five minigames, but that's not enough. Fortunately, they got several modes and levels. This game is fun for several hours, but you play it longer for achievements. And, the game is MUCH more fun with your friends. If this game would not come with Kinect, then I would suggest a different game, but you get it in the bundle! Yes!

    Graphics: They are good 8/10 because of Lego humans
    Sound: 8/10 A bit of music
    Gameplay: Alone 5/10, with friends 10/10
    Story: There's an adventure mode 7/10, but it's not very long.

    While undoubtedly fun, Kinect Adventures does have a tendency to become tiresome due to the lack of variety in each game type.
