The game isn’t open to the public yet, and in fact some locations are still behind construction walls, but it’s a safe bet that early in 2012 we’ll see the new game Sorcerers in the Magic Kingdom unveiled. It will be like Kim Possible at Epcot, where players use a handheld device (in that case, a rented cellphone) to interact with physical objects left planted around World Showcase. The objects react to buttons pushed on the cell phone, and do minimal animations as a result.

Sorcerers will use special cards instead of cell phones, and the storyline has something to do with defeating Yzma and Kronk from Emperor’s New Groove (I know, I know… not my favorite, either). The stations visible so far all sport not one, but two cameras aimed at the player, and always on both sides of the station. That implies the cameras are going to triangulate, and the player will have move in three-dimensional space a certain way (kind of like wii or Xbox Kinect). Indeed, the Disney Dream apparently has a game like this already in service.
