Catch the Wally – Hide and Seek | Awesome Discovery Game for Kids

✔ iPad + iPhone | Kids App for Ages 3-6 years

After releasing the wonderful picture book app »Funny Yummy« the kids app developers Funny Yummy Studio, have now published their first kids game for iPad and iPhone called »Catch the Wally«. The main character of »Catch the Wally« is the wicked spider Wally, who wants to play a funny hide and seek game with the kids.

Brick by Brick

The nocturnal spider Wally lives in an old factory hall and it’s favorite game is hide and seek, because in the factory building are plenty of awesome hiding places.

So it’s up to the kids to find Wally behind one of the bricks of the old brick wall, by searching one brick at a time. As Wally could be behind any of them and there are no particular clues for the spider’s exact position, kids have to basically follow their instincts…

Many surprises

Kids will also meet lots of other residents of the factory whilst searching for Wally. The brick wall turns out to be a living environment for creepy-crawlies, mice and other creatures, which will draw attention towards them via short animated sequences, once they’ve been discovered.

Kids can unlock a total of 17 different surprise bricks and each individual mini scene is interactive, which means that lots of animations and little gimmicks can be discovered within the scenes, just like in a really good picture book app. In order for kids to not miss out on anything, they are able to zoom in to the brick wall.

Hint: Wally can also be hidden behind one of the surprise bricks – it is therefore worthwhile to check the scenes thoroughly!

Rules of the Game

The game is designed to be played several rounds in succession, whereby an antique scorer sheds light on the score after each round. Within one round, kids can remove 20 bricks from off the wall. If they don’t find Wally behind one of the 20 bricks – the spider wins. If kids detect a bomb, all bricks are blown away at once, so the game is a draw.

Catch the Wally | Kids App Rating

Catch the Wally is an interesting hide and seek game with 20 figures, gimmicks and surprises. Especially the individual surprise scenes were surprisingly elaborately designed. If kids discover an old radio behind one of the bricks for example, they cannot only switch it on, but instead they can even adjust the radio stations with the tiny switches.  Despite this attention to detail, the gameplay of Catch the Wally is otherwise quite simple. Where Wally is hiding is neither indicated nor can the whereabouts be calculated. We would have liked one decisive game idea, to make the final game outcome less random.
