Playstation 3 Move: Wonderbook – Miranda Goshawk ‘Book of Spells’ from J.K. Rowling

Review by Hag

Out on Playstation 3 Move 16/11/12 (PEGI 7) 5 Stars

Parent View:
Wow – now me and the boys love our PSVita, but in the past most of the Sony products tend to be more targeted at a slightly older audience with Nintendo and Microsoft being focused on families.

Then just before Christmas – Sony throw in this ‘CHEEKY LITTLE MONKEY’ to enchant Kidz – The Wonderbook and Book of Spells from the World of Harry Potter!!

Hag and Con just love this new interactive gadget for the PS3 and as a parent I enjoy seeing them learning and reading without realising.

The Wonderbook is easy to set up and although there is only one game out right now – you can see so much potential in the family market for such a product. Its a augmented reality version of the Kindle for Kidz.

Wonderbook is one of the most important developments in family entertainment for years – we can’t wait to see what come next!!!

The Book!!

The games work around 12 ‘Wonderbook’ pages

The ‘Wonderbook’ is used in conjunction with the PlayStation ‘Move’ controller and camera – for voice recognition and hand set play.

What’s to come on ‘Wonderbook’:

BBC ‘Walking with Dinosaurs’

‘Diggs Nightcrawler’
