Today, Microsoft released Kinectimals (App Store link) for the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. The app is focused for younger children and allows them to interact with virtual animals. The game first made an appearance alongside the release of the Kinect motion sensor for the Xbox 360 last year.

This irresistible mobile experience gives you the chance to use your phone to visit the island of Lemuria and play with, care for and fall in love with your very own cub. Bring your pet with you wherever you go! If you’ve already experienced Kinectimals on Kinect for Xbox 360, your phone becomes the key to unlocking five new cubs on your console. Stand-alone mobile game features Kinectimals’ signature visual quality, delightful animation and brand new ways to play with your cub!

The game costs $2.99 to download.
