Hidden Folks

Hidden Folks is basically a digital, moving Where’s Waldo book. Each level is a hand-drawn black-and-white scene packed with tiny details like tents you can open, bushes you can rustle, cars you can tap, and crocodiles you probably shouldn’t poke. Your job is to find specific characters and objects by exploring the scene and interacting with it.

The sound effects are all done with human mouths. For instance, you’ll hear little “boop,” “beep,” and “raaah” noises that make the whole thing feel playful and homemade. There are no timers, no penalties for random tapping, and plenty of hints if you get stuck. 

This is a perfect game for sharing with family, too. Hand your phone to a kid, a grandparent, or anyone nearby and let other people have fun and relax with you.
