The App and trail are based on the best-selling picture book, written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Axel Scheffler. On the trail families can interact with the 3D characters from the film on the self-led trails, which are also packed with fantastic facts about forest animals, and fun activities. Through cutting-edge face and body recognition technology, the characters now look at the children directly, encouraging them to play along. If you roar, the Gruffalo roars back! Photographs can be saved on your device and you can also create mini-movies of your time with the characters that can all be shared using the #GruffaloSpotters hashtag. The final new feature is selfie mode, so you can get a brilliant close up with the main characters, Gruffalo and Mouse!

The Gruffalo Spotter 2 App is available for free with no purchase required from the App Store and Google Play and requires downloading before visiting.

The Gruffalo licensing deal with Illawarra Fly was brokered by Australia’s Merchantwise Licensing on behalf of Magic Light Pictures.
