        The game first snaps a picture of the player using the PlayStation Eye, it then proceeds to display a real time video feed of players using the PlayStation Eye displaying the player and his surroundings in the game. The game consists of a wide variety of mini-games including bug-swatting and painting games, these are played using the PlayStation Move motion controller which would look like something else in the game. In the game the controller often transforms itself into animated objects similar to the film Who Framed Roger Rabbit which features real-life people holding cartoon-like objects. The controller can transform into a variety of things depending on the game such as a cartoon tennis racket for swatting bugs, a spiky prod for popping balloons which are shown in the game as being held on to by the player.[3] The game also allows for multiplayer modes with up to four different players with the use of a single PlayStation Move controller.
