Wow - thank you for releasing this. Because of all the warnings, about the unknown effect on VR and young kids, the Vive is mainly dad's toy, but I still let the kids experience it from time to time. That said, there is very little content out there geared towards kids. Appreciate you making this so my kids have something fun to do in VR too!

About This Game
Our stories are well-known around the world, and have been specially adapted for preschool-aged children. These are tales that have stood the test of time, and they offer important life lessons about being kind, understanding and helpful, having courage, and doing the right thing.
And if you don’t feel like watching a story, there are plenty of other things to do here!
DETAILS:
- Watch beautifully told, uplifting stories, treasured by generations of children: Alice in Wonderland, The War of the Worlds and Little Mowgli.
- Explore the room and rearrange objects any way you like. The size of your actual room won’t limit you. You can play Magic Lantern VR wherever you are.
- Darts, balls, toy cars, blocks, stuffed animals, a globe and pictures appear in the game as interactive objects – toys you can play with but never break or lose.
- Draw on the easel and let your imagination run free – your paint will never dry out, and your clothes won’t get dirty.
- Try controlling a toy cat, directing it using a laser pointer.
- Choose another language in the game setup for a fun way to learn a foreign language.
- Now you have a new playroom, cozy and safe, where children can do almost anything they want and never get hurt.
Home is where the magic begins!

Nice artstile but hitboxes ar far to big and the world somtimes moves when you get close. Good for kids.
I played this on the Oculus Rift with Touch Controller and the only issue was the button mapping. To select menu items, you do have to press down on the joystick and hit trigger. Otherwise, game plays fine. I picked up this game on the Halloween sale for .99 cents and it's easily worth more than that. I liked it so much that I went ahead and got the DLC (also on sale for .49 cents). This game is a small VR sandbox with a lot of charm. I loved the graphics for this game type and the mini-games were fine (drawing, shooting darts, laser with cat). What sets this game a part from other sandboxes is the Magic Lantern, i.e. projector. You project several short stories on the wall while the little girl narrates them. These stories are shortened version of classics, but they are drawn so well and the narration is very good on all of them. I just had to smile while enjoying these. Sale Price Rating 8/10 Highly recommended for kids or for kids at heart (yeah, even a hardened cynic l...
I don't know about the DLC, but the demo works on Oculus Touch in Windows 7-64 bit (use the trigger button on Touch). The free demo is short and it's content limited but of high quality, and should succeed in it's mission of leaving you wanting for more.
Pretty disappointing. Went into it expecting a blast of childhood nostalgia, but what I get instead was a blast of mediocrity.
This is a very sweet little game, it made me feel like a kid again :) There's not exactly much to "do" in it but it's beautifully put-together and very relaxing to sit there and watch a story on the projector, throw objects out the window, or laugh at the cat floating around the room on his roomba.
because i have a small hp laptop i cant play magic lantern because it is not strong enough!
Good free game. Love it
There seems to be some tracking issues with the world moving as you get closer to some objects. It is very disorienting and is the first game to give me motion sickness. I can see the potential for this app, but the foundations need to be solid.
