The scenes are the films'. The people are ours: every member of the cast has an eye flower for a head, and every wall is hung with real census New Yorkers from the block where the film was shot. Every set hides a trick, an optical illusion or a game, and every one has eggs to find. A sample:

SKATE MODE: every set is a skate spot. Quarter pipes, a halfpipe, pyramids, rollers, down rails, rainbow rails, ledges and gaps, three goals in each of the 105 sets, 315 goals across the city. Pick any of the cast as your rider. Switch any time with K or the SKATE button.
