Vibe's take

Excited and loud in short bursts. Everyone is bent over a board, shining the light and shouting when they spot the thing. Great for kids and adults squinting side by side.

About this game

A cooperative hidden-object game played in the dark. Every player has a board with a transparent layer on top of a black background, showing a different part of the scene. A card reveals which odd character or item to look for, and everyone hunts for it at the same time with their flashlight, whose white spot lights up the board. The faster the group finds things, the farther your pawns advance, and the Moon pawn keeps chasing from behind. Five rounds, about 15 minutes, one to five players, ages 6 and up. Pure, noisy fun for kids and grown-ups at the same table.
