Ouija Table is a classic talking board, redrawn for iPhone, iPad and Mac. Put a finger on the planchette, ask your question and let it drift across the board. When its window rests on a letter, the letter is written above the board, one by one, until the message is complete. Stop on YES or NO for a quick answer, or on the banners when the board would rather you "Rephrase the question". • A vintage board in green, gold and parchment that fills the screen of iPhone, iPad and Mac • A walnut planchette inlaid with brass and mother-of-pearl, gliding like a real one • Speaks your language, with its own alphabet where it has one: Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew, Arabic, Urdu • The message stays on screen: delete the last letter or start again with a tap • Three atmospheric songs and the sound of the planchette sliding on the board, all of which you can turn off • No account, no ads, nothing to set up: open it and play Ouija Table is a game, for entertainment only.
