LEGO Fusion: Town Master


Photo-A-Day #3420

I have been waiting for LEGO Fusion to finally be released because the idea is very exciting to me. You create LEGO models, photograph them with your tablet or phone and they get built in a 3D world. Then you can play in the world. I picked up Town Master because that had a wider appeal to the family. IT is sort of like a stripped down kids version of Sim City but with LEGO bricks.

We played for a while tonight where I’d create the house, photograph it place it in the world and then run around doing the tasks of the world. So when I say “We” I really mean “I”. Eva did get to make a couple of the houses. Andrew lost pieces. So it was par for the course with LEGO at this stage of the game.

App Alert: Paw Patrol Rescue Run

Paw Patrol Rescue Run

In the brand new app from Nickelodeon’s fun pre-school series, Paw Patrol, kids can help the pups save Adventure Bay.

The pup that they do not choose will help out during the adventure. The pup that they do choose will do the primary action in the adventure. The three emergency are at The Bay, The Train and Jake’s Mountain. While playing each of the games kids can earn special badges by tapping certain areas on the screen. Each game has pups running and jumping on and over obstacles to collect bones on their way to the rescue point. Once at the rescue point the primary pup switches out to the secondary pup to perform another task like sorting trash and recyclables or moving large and small logs.
