  Love it. Sit down, have a cup of tea, play this game. Beware that it's not exactly like Where's Wally, there are a handful of characters where you have to get an animation going before you can actually click to 'find' the person. This advice won't make sense, until it makes sense, y'know?

  No click counters. No timers. No unnecessary game modes. Just you and the challenge to find all Folks and Objects following their respective clues. This is one of the purest gaming experiences I've had in a long time. Expect up to six hours of play time (if you're really slow like me) with the Factory Update. Don't forget that the developers are still working on free additional maps. In the now immortal words of Nina Struthers, "I bet you want this game. I bet you wanna buy this game. You will buy this game. I believe in you. Buy this motherfucking game!"

  A spectacular game, Hidden Folks is an absolute joy to play. We had some fun playing this on the TV while everyone pointed at cool things and passed the controller around. It is relaxing, pleasant, and sounds/looks great. I am really looking forward to the next chunk of content. Great job developers, this game is really something special :)

  Hyper-realistic sound simulator that comes with a very enjoyable hidden object game with slight puzzle elements. This game has also been DOOG approved.

  For such a simple looking game I wasn't expecting this much fun; plus some good laughs between friends on those amazing sound effects. Would recommend to anyone with a few bucks and some time to spare.

  MY RATING:	🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟	10 / 10

  If you have a lot of games and don't have much time for them, it's easy to forget about games. But the great thing about it is that you always find one or the other surprise. And that's what happened to me with Hidden Folks. At first I thought it was a Hidden Object game like any other Hidden Object game, which doesn't mean that other Hidden Object games are boring, simple or whatever. On the contrary. Each of these games has its own charm and I've had a lot of fun with all of them so far. But Hidden Folks is currently the most elaborate, extensive and also most challenging of all the hidden object games I've played so far. And if my information is correct, the game is a collaboration between French animation artist Sylvain Tegroeg, who was asked by Dutch game designer Adriaan de Jongh if Tegroeg would like to develop a game with him. Tegroeg's hand-drawn black and white backgrounds were scanned and finally animated by de Jongh. The result is a picture book-like game full of life. Relaxed and stress-free searching without a time limit Due to the fine and clearly drawn lines, the individual large and small sections never appear blurred or hectic in any way. It looks more like a minimalist work of art in which you click through the different levels and rummage through bushes, turn over boxes, open manhole covers or window shutters, tickle monkeys or click on treetops to find the people you are looking for. There are always small hints in the game about the characters to be found, which are very helpful due to the abundance of some sections, because the people or things you are looking for are usually really well hidden. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2860298973 Once you have found a certain number of people/things you are looking for, you unlock a new world that you can switch to immediately if you wish. Nevertheless, it is advisable to stay in the current world until you have really found everything. The game shows what is "needed" for each world in an interface, including the small help. Finding everything is not absolutely necessary for playing through, but if you want to take the achievements with you, you can't avoid it. A special feature of the game is, at least that's how I felt it, that it is or has the effect of being meditative and relaxing. There is no time pressure and no reason to find the hidden folks as soon as possible. There is so much to see and discover and the joy of trying things out to find out what is hidden behind a door, in a tent or behind boxes and bushes. Another part of the relaxing gameplay is due to the sound design. As far as I know, all the sound effects were self-recorded to create a kind of unique a cappella sound. The whole thing is controlled simply with the mouse. The image can be moved in all directions with a left click and hold and zooming is easy with the mouse wheel. The menu is relatively extensive. In addition to the credits, which you should definitely take a look at, some languages ​​can be set that were made possible by translations from the community and all people are also named in the credits. Really great ! https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2860298987 In addition to the settings for the (background) colors in the form of white, black and sepia, the menu also offers the option of adjusting the brightness. The game can also be played in full screen or in window mode with the desired resolution. The interface, which is also used in the game to help you find the people/things you are looking for, can be displayed at the bottom, left or right and there is the option of adjusting the scroll sensitivity (actually the zoom sensitivity). And if you've finished the game and want to play it again, you'll definitely be happy about the reset function. In my opinion, Hidden Folks is not only suitable for friends of hidden object games. Rather, the game is also wonderful for escaping the stressful and hectic everyday life in order to look for a few figures or objects in a relaxed, calm and stress-free manner. Those of you who like such games will find your way around here quickly, even if one or the other world is really big and has a lot to offer. Review date: September 08, 2022

  Hidden Folks is not exactly a bad game but it is a disappointment. Everything I read about this game and everything people told me about it made it sound like it was Where's Waldo but for the modern era. It's not. I used to love hidden stuff books when I was a kid so this should have been perfect but the thing that those books had that Hidden Folks does not is simply visually interesting stuff. Let's try something: I want you to go to google and just search for a page out of a Waldo book. You don't even have to bother looking for the guy, just look at the pages. You'll quickly notice that they are full of gags and interesting stuff happening, things that are not related with Waldo at all but simply happening in the scene. It is dense with fun things to see because the creator of Waldo would start each scene with a list of jokes or other visually interesting things that he wanted to draw and THEN he'd put Waldo in the scene once he had an interesting setup to show. Hidden Folks doesn't do that nearly as often. Instead it hides those little interesting things (a lot of times not that interesting either) within a massive scene of mostly copy-pasted and just slightly tweaked assets meant to hide what you are looking for, nothing more. Old hidden stuff books had lots of fun things to look at outside the objects/characters you were meant to find, Hidden Folks just has mostly clutter and interactable things that hinder you. That's just a bummer when it could be so much more if they focused on scene composition rather than having huge, sprawling screens full of little guys doing this wavey motion with their arms. It's why the tiny puzzles within Hidden Folks work better than the rest, I think: Less repetition, more unique and interesting stuff. Get it if you like finding random stuff but don't expect a ton of clever or amusing things outside the cute noises and kind of cute graphics.

  I just played under an hour with my kids, and we all had a blast. The sounds are funny, the animations are great, the fact that you need to dig/cut/shake/click on things make this hidden game really cool. It's a really nice casual game where you just kick back, have a cup of coffee and relax. A well deserved purchase !

  Find Waldo, except Waldo is monochrome and on a square mile map.

  I picked this title up at full price on a whim. It didn't last long, but for a few short hours I forgot all about my high-pressure job. I was six years old again, and clicking repeatedly on cars just to hear them go MEEPMEEP. I bought several more copies for some friends.
