We really like playing this game and, for us, it's definitely a team effort! I get us started by picking the song and the alien band members, and I also dress the band up n the wardrobe room with Andrew's assistance ("Pick the other alien pirate eyepatch, Mommy!")
Then, the rock begins. We select a stage and Andrew taps on each alien to get them playing their instrument or singing. He has a blast starting and stopping each one or selecting which alien to be a featured soloist. Andrew is almost three and a half, and with my guidance, he got the hang of the game quickly--though he does get frustrated if I'm not there to help him navigate between songs and stages. Older kids will be more adept at this and really into dressing their our rock band, taking and sharing band photos, recording their music video, and playing them back for family and friends.
And what was little Liam's role in all this? Well, he just dances around the room! The four featured songs are really quirky and catchy--just what you would imagine alien rock to sound like--and they get us all dancing along.The game is free to play and available at the itunes app store for download. There are in-app upgrades available for purchase (four extra aliens for 99 cents a piece or $2.99 for all), but we've been just fine with the original four aliens.
We're looking forward to the next game in the Roklienz series, Roklienz: On Tour due out next week! It a rhythm-based game, so it will delve into a whole different aspect of music than our other Creativity Inc. apps. Look out for it in the itunes app store this July.
