### 5/5 — Regulate your nervous system here!

*2026-06-15, version 2.1.6*

So charming. Clearly made with love. The DIY sound effects are my favourite. I keep coming back to this game year after year. Nothing else like it.

### 5/5 — Review

*2026-06-15, version 2.1.6*

Make more levels to the game. I’ve played these levels 1000 times over.

### 4/5 — Muy bueno pero

*2026-06-14, version 2.1.6*

Excelente juego, lo único malo es que el guardado no se sincroniza con tu cuenta, no puedes empezar en un dispositivo y continuar en otro, siempre empieza desde cero.

### 5/5 — WARNING!!!

*2026-06-04, version 2.1.6*

This game is so entertaining! What I love about is the human sound effects on every single object or person! There is no music but the human sound effects makes it better my favorite part is the “BLING” when I find something ! I am keeping this one forever! Please come out with more !

### 5/5 — THEPEFECTGAME

*2026-06-01, version 2.1.6*

Okay, this is the game my parents are telling me to get because the game increases your chances of finding things. Plus, my dad really likes the games with no ads.

### 4/5 — It’s funny but…

*2026-05-30, version 2.1.6*

It’s fine at first but then it gets to hard

### 5/5 — An Instant Lifetime Favorite

*2026-05-26, version 2.1.6*

I love everything about this game. The concept, a hidden object game, it’s not a new idea but this game completely mastered how to make a hidden object game fun and engaging from the very get go, I wish I could forget where the Folks and objects were so I could experience the magic all over again. You know, that or just more levels and or a sequel! It’s not just the gameplay though, its the whole thing, the art style I am completely in love with, everything is so cute I wish I had a giant poster or something I could put on my wall or a t-shirt or something, the black and white hand drawn doodle style is so captivating! It’s not just the art style and gameplay that makes this game amazing. You can tell this game was a true labor of love from all the tiny details. From all the interactable objects and Folks in the game, to the puzzles, to all the sounds, to the lovable reoccurring characters and the hints for each object or Folk to be found this game had me clicking away long after I had found every object just hoping to discover more. It honestly made me cry that I finished it all and I will be waiting eagerly for either more content (please) or a sequel to come out soon (please, please, please!) It’s not every day you find an immediate lifetime favorite.

### 5/5 — Najlepsza gra na świecie!

*2026-05-18, version 2.1.6*

Niezwykle urocza i relaksująca gra dla graczy w każdym wieku. Polecam !

### 5/5 — Relaxant

*2026-05-13, version 2.1.6*

Quel merveilleux jeu. Je recherchais un jeu tranquille beau addictif sans être toxique… je suis servi je ne peux que recommander et bravo aux développeurs dessinateurs créateurs bref à tous !

### 4/5 — hint pls

*2026-05-13, version 2.1.6*

it'd be perfect if we got hints

### 5/5 — Challenging but worth it

*2026-04-29, version 2.1.6*

I hate that I’m nearly at the end of the game because I want to keep playing. I really want new levels and/or a sequel! It’s nice that there are 3 color schemes (white bg, black lines; tan bg, black lines; black bg, white lines) although getting to the Settings is tricky (see below). The SFX may trigger misophonia at times, like munching noises, but these are rare and only isolated to certain parts of certain maps. 

My only major critique is in the menu and clue UI. It is by far the most frustrating part of the entire game (besides the clue about the axe in the jungle.)

1. Scrolling horizontally on the bottom of a screen triggers the App Switcher button if not careful. A vertical version of the clue menu is preferred. If horizontal must remain, the scrolling speed must be increased to reduce swipes. 

2. There should be an option to hold onto a clue you’re searching for. If I am tapping around an area and I hit a previously-found Hidden Object, the clue menu scrolls back to that clue. This repeatedly reintroduces problem 1 as the menu is not very touch friendly. 

3. Menu/Settings should be available through another mechanism like a Settings cog icon, NOT in the clue menu. Even if problems 1 and 2 are resolved, I shouldn’t have to lose my clue menu placement to try to find the Menu/Settings. 

4. Map zooming is awkward and also feels too stiff, similar to the feel of the clues horizontal menu.

### 5/5 — Great brain stimulation, super fun

*2026-04-26, version 2.1.6*

TOUGH but fun. Like Where’s Waldo but harder. Everything is interactive and silly. Get it!

### 5/5 — Super Addicting

*2026-04-20, version 2.1.6*

Great sounds and graphics - think about where’s Waldo but with sound and a lot more items to find.  Love the hints but still tough enough to spend some quality time looking for these unique items… Easily 5/5 STARS for me!

### 5/5 — Challenge

*2026-04-17, version 2.1.6*

I love that every little person moves :)

### 5/5 — Obsessed

*2026-04-17, version 2.1.6*

One of the best games phone/ iPad games I’ve ever played. It was so clever, and managed to be extremely relaxing and challenging at the same time. Only complaint… I wish it was longer and there was a Hidden Folks 2!

### 5/5 — Best

*2026-04-06, version 2.1.6*

Best game

### 5/5 — Two words: GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*2026-03-29, version 2.1.6*

A mix of hard and easy. And a mix of work (just a little) and fun 😄
It’s a little bit hard to find the characters sometimes but it’s also so fun and relaxing I’m laying on my keyboard fgkhhgvgguhferhjijvcsdhkjhijhdjvfhdkvh kjhrukahtjkvhfdukhv 
Ggehjkgherhgjfkeghdrgnkdurghfdukghrdibodfg (sorry about that) anyway like in the title: GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Ps my favorite character is Kiki the monkey 😄). Over and out!

### 5/5 — Muy entretenido

### 5/5 — Amazing game to pass time!

*2026-03-23, version 2.1.6*

Its a really cute game, I like the sounds and the overall design, it feels very artistic and unique! Love it

### 5/5 — This game is AMAZING!

*2026-03-23, version 2.1.6*

I have downtime on my device, meaning that there are certain apps i cannot get to unless i ask or do something for it. Hidden Folks is an “anytime app” meaning i can go on it anytime. It’s genuinely so cute and interesting to play on. Sometimes it can actually be hard, sometimes they are right out the open. But yeah, hidden folks is a 10/10, download it.

### 5/5 — Keşke

*2026-08-20, version 2.1.6*

Keşke kareterleri istediğimiz yerlere sürükleyebilseydik

### 5/5 — Esperé toda mi vida este juego

*2026-08-05, version 2.1.6*

Lo amo, este juego. Quiero llorar

### 5/5 — Possibly the Greatest Game Ever

*2026-07-14, version 2.1.6*

I love this game. And my memory sucks! A win/win situation, because I play through to the end, wait a couple of months and start all over because I don’t remember where anybody, any worm or random peeled banana! 

I would really love some new places to visit, though. I know how hard it is to create and draw these images, but some of us are going through withdrawal! DTS! 

I’d even pay for a whole game if it would come with regular new content (cough, cough)! 

But thank you for what you have given us so far! I’ve played it all the way through over 5 times. About to start another!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-07-14, version 2.1.6*

A simply illustrated yet unique twist on “where’s Waldo”

### 5/5 — Simple but fun

*2026-06-23, version 2.1.6*

I love the art style which is easy on the eyes with the dark mode and how entertaining the clues are and also the progression is very free (it doesn't go in one path) which is very nice.

### 5/5 — I love this

*2026-06-20, version 2.1.6*

They need to come back and add more!!

### 5/5 — Hard
