Kinect Rush: A Disney/Pixar Adventure is a game made by Microsoft Studios and Disney/Pixar.[1] It lets players jump into the world of Toy Story, The Incredibles, Cars, Ratatouille, and Up.
The game was later remastered on October 31, 2017, renamed to Rush: A Disney–Pixar Adventure. The remastered one is available on the Xbox One and Windows 10 and contains a sixth world, based on Finding Dory.
Gameplay[]
The player creates an avatar of themselves by using the Kinect sensor to scan themselves and choose options such as glasses, shape of hair and eye color. In each world, the avatar is changed into a different form: a superhero in The Incredibles, a rat in Ratatouille, an explorer in Up, a toy robot in Toy Story, and a car in Cars. In Finding Dory, the player plays as a clownfish Nemo or a sea turtle Squirt. The player also tries to collect coins and beat the best time to get points to unlock extras in the levels such as a new buddy, new goals, new special abilities and bonus concept art.
Throughout the levels, the player uncovers secret areas that may require special abilities and buddies. In these secret areas, the player finds a Buddy Coin. When all 4 Buddy Coins are collected in a level, the player gets to play as one of the characters in that level.
Depending on how many points the player gets in a level, a medal is awarded, either Bronze, Silver, Gold (7000 points or more), or Platinum (8000 points or more).

Trivia[]
- The Luxo Ball appears in the Ratatouille portion, as well as appearing as medals and in the middle of the park.
- A113 is seen on Mrs. Anderson's car's license plate.
- The billboard of Harryhausen's again appears in the Bomb Squad level of Cars.
- When the player is a male, their avatar as a car is the same car model as Lewis Hamilton. When the player is female, it is the same car model as Carla Veloso.
- Although Charles Muntz was killed in Up, he seems to be alive in the game, though he is only heard on a loudspeaker throughout the levels of Up. Also, the dogs are still fighting against the player when they presumably become good at the end of the film. It could be that he survived the fall in the film and used some other dogs, or the theme/level itself is non-cannon and/or is set in an alternate timeline.
- When the player starts the game, the birds from For the Birds can be seen in the beginning cutscene.
- This game marks the second time Owen Wilson returns to voice Lightning McQueen in a video game.
- Finding Dory is the only world in the game where players only play as one of the two original Finding Dory characters and not as a different form of their avatar.
