description Hidden Folks Overview

Hidden Folks is a 2017 hidden-object puzzle game created by Dutch developer Adriaan de Jongh and artist Sylvain Tegroeg. Players search crowded, interactive black-and-white scenes for named people, animals, and objects, with discoveries triggered through clicking and manipulating parts of the environment. Its hand-drawn presentation, animation, and deliberately recorded vocal sound effects distinguish it from static hidden-picture books and support play on digital devices.
