Common questions
How do I play?
Each scene is a big picture full of people and animals. The checklist on the side shows what to look for; tap or click a thing in the picture when you spot it. Somewhere in the crowd is the hero of the story, hiding among lookalikes who wear the same colors, so check the three clues on the hero's card before you decide. Find 10 things, the hero included, and the next scene opens.
How do I move around the picture?
Drag with a finger or the mouse to pan, pinch or scroll to zoom, and use the little map in the corner to jump somewhere else. On a controller, the left stick moves and the triggers zoom.
I'm stuck. Is there a hint?
Yes. The magnifying-glass button gives up to three hints per scene. Using hints doesn't lock anything; it only affects your star time for that scene.
What are the stars and the gold badge?
You earn up to three stars for finding the hero quickly. Find every single thing on the checklist and the scene gets a gold "Found everything!" badge. Stars, badges, stickers and verse cards are all in Rewards on the main menu.
Where is my progress saved? Can I move it to another device?
Progress is saved on the device you play on and never leaves it. There are no accounts, so it can't be synced between devices yet. If you delete the game, its progress is deleted with it.
How do I turn the music or sounds down?
Open Settings from the main menu, or tap the speaker button during play, to adjust the music and sound-effect volume or mute them.
Which Bible translation is used?
The verses are from the King James Version.
Is it safe for kids?
Yes. The pictures are gentle cartoons with nothing gory or frightening. There are no ads, no purchases, no chat, no links out of the game and no data collection. See the privacy policy.
Something isn't working.
Try closing the game fully and opening it again. If it keeps happening, email support@wiiwid.com with your device (for example "iPhone 15" or "Windows PC on Steam"), the version of the game from the Credits screen, and what you were doing when it went wrong. A screenshot helps a lot.
