## What is Warmer Basic?

Built by kids for kids. Warmer was collaborative effort; designed and built by a father, daughter, and daughter team. We hope you enjoy the game as much as we do.


Warmer is a hot-or-cold style hide-n-seek game played with 2 or more friends.

Install warmer on 2 or more iOS devices (i.e. iPhones, iPods, and iPads).

Game Play:
1. One player chooses to hide a device.
2. The other players use the Warmer app to aid them in finding the hidden device.

Warmer tells you when you are getting closer (warmer) or further away (cooler).

Features:
- Real time visual and auditory feedback of approximate "warmth" (proximity) to the hidden object. I.e. Warmer tells you when you are getting warmer or cooler by changing the color on the screen and it can beep at you if you want.
- Simple gameplay is great for young kids.
- Easy to use flashlight feature (iPhones only).
- Unlike other video games, Warmer gets your kids moving, and interacting with the world and each other.
- Play together with as little as two people or as many friends and family members you can gather.
- Be creative in where you hide and how you play.

Highly adaptable gameplay – hide multiple devices, split into teams, play in the dark... What will you and your kids create?


Requires 2 or more devices. Install Warmer on each and every device you want to play with.
