Gameplay[edit]
Hidden Folks is a wimmelbilderbuchvideo game in which players are tasked with locating hidden characters, objects, and animals in a series of environments, similar to the British book series Where's Wally?.[1][2] Each scene is animated and composed of monochrome art.[1][3] The majority of objects in the environment can be interacted with by tapping or clicking on them.[3]
Development and release[edit]
Hidden Folks was developed by Dutch indievideo game designer Adriaan de Jongh and Dutch artist Sylvain Tegroeg.[4][5] A prototype of the game was created by de Jongh after he saw detailed illustrations during at Tegroeg's graduate art show.[3][6] The two began collaborating in 2014, when Tegroeg noticed and was impressed by how de Jongh had used his art.[3][7] The idea of creating a hidden object game came naturally from Tegroeg's detailed art.[2] All of the game's art was hand-drawn on paper, scanned in to create digital images on a computer, and then layered manually to form the scenes.[3][4] The game was built using the Unity game engine, however de Jongh also built custom tools to specifically handle the process of digitising the hand-drawn art and maintaining detail on mobile devices.[4]Hidden Folks was designed to be a casual and relaxing gaming experience.[2] The game's audio is composed of noises made from the developers' mouths.[3]
The game was announced in February 2016.[8] It was released for iOS, Android (operating system), Linux, macOS, and Windows on 15 February 2017.[1][3]
