Up your Lego game with this augmented reality (AR) ghost game. Build the Lego haunted mansion, then download the Lego Hidden Side app to your phone. Point the app at your Lego creation and hunt ghosts on your own or get together with your friends for a fun multiplayer game catching ghosts or being a ghost. Adding virtual AR to real-world Lego fun sounds pretty cool. Kids still get to work with their hands to build and play and can now also connect with friends online to interact with their Lego creation.
What could happen if something goes wrong?
This augmented reality toy from Lego feels safe to us. Once you download the app to your phone or tablet, your kid doesn't need to be connected to the internet to play. Just point the phone's camera at your Lego haunted mansion and have fun hunting ghosts! If your kid wants to join others for some multiplayer fun, they can do that either together in person or online. Lego does say they may share or sell your personal information if you are over the age of 16- which isn't awesome. Welcome to the digital ad economy where you and your kids' data is monetized from an early age.
