Walt Disney launches cartoon card game for iPhone

Who on earth trusts their child with their iPhone? If you're one of those brave/mad people (delete as appropriate), then Disney's All Star Cards is the game to get them playing.

It sees you playing various card games, including Go Fish, Hearts, Crazy 8's and Solitaire, against a parade of Disney characters.

I'm talking Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald and Daisy. The games are presented with a neat first-person viewpoint, so you can stare into the whites of their eyes.

As you play, you collect Pixie Dust which lets you customise your cards and even tweak the rules.

It sounds like a treat for Disney fans - and come to think of it, there may be a lot of first-generation iPhones being passed on to children tomorrow when mum or dad upgrades to the 3G model. So this could be a hit!

Expect to pay £5.99 for it. The App Store product page is here.
