Do i need an ipad for this

I bought this for a Christmas gift. From what I have been able to find out is that you need a tablet or phone to download the app.

what exactly does this include? what is in the box? what do you need to make it work? do you have a video showing how it works?

You basically draw your idea with objects and characters. Take a photo of it in the app and it becomes a game. You can adjust it as well to make your idea come to life. It’s pretty fun and amazing and I’ve seen adults enjoy this as well. You get Pixicade markers, a sticker sheet, QR code’s, and step-by-step books.

Can any paper be used or does it have to be the paper that comes with the kit?

I believe it’s only the paper that comes with the kit.
