Ratings and reviews

It's a digital where's waldo with human noises as sound effects. Fun if you like that kind of thing. It's annoying to play on a smartphone IMO because of the small screen real estate (lots of scrolling in bigger areas) and most of the gameplay consists of tapping on grass, trees, etc. to uncover deliberately hidden things. I prefer just using my eyes to find things and not having to tap the screen incessantly. The sound effects ARE fun though.

This game really sucked me in in a way I haven't felt since I was a kid doing those old I Spy and Where's Waldo books. Many of the maps are gigantic, which helps keep the levels from being beaten too soon. The art is adorable and distinct enough to not have too much trouble finding people blending into crowds. Almost everything has a unique animation or sound when tapped. A lot of love went into this and it shows. My only regret was that it eventually ended. 5/5!

Very challenging. Awesome sound effects. Fun interactions. Great for kids and adults. Trying to figure out the clues and find the folk/object is quite difficult actually which is what makes this game fun. It's not like any other hidden picture games out there. Highly recommend if you want hours of gameplay and a good brain workout!!!
