Wombi Detective – a crime solving mystery game for kids

This game is speaking in another language although it clearly states that it is English Very disappointed considering the price of this game     Idk

Awesome Im a speech therapist This game fosters a childs ability to take clues and put them together to find the bigger picture Highly recommend                 Inductive reasoning

Great game My 2 and 4 year old love this game It teaches logic and deductive reasoning It is a visual problem solving game for kids The introduction to the case is in gibberish not a foreign language because kids should be focused on looking at the clues instead of listening for them All the settings and menu language is in English Play it once with your kids and you will laugh at people who thought this game was in foreign language                 Great kids game in English

While I agree with the earlier reviewers that the characters in the app are definitely not speaking English I dont think that causes any serious problems with gameplay I thought what they were speaking might even be gibberish Its difficult to tell because all of the voices are cartoonish In any case each mystery can be solved without needing to understand what they are saying Ill explain the gameplay for anyone who wants to help a child play without having to play through it with them to figure it out The game goes as follows A victim of a theft calls you the detective They presumably say what has been stolen and a picture of the item pops up Then you get to select each of the three buttons along the bottom to get a description of the thief One button reveals his eye color another shows what kind of hat he wears and a third describes his height The last one might be a bit tricky for kids to figure out but can easily be explained The thief is picked from a lineup standing in front of horizontal bands of color The height description is given as a stick figure drawn in the color of the band that the thiefs height falls into Importantly they use what the characters height would be without his hat Its not particularly intuitive but is easy enough to explain The player is given as many guesses as needed to find who in the lineup matches the eye color type of hat and height from the description of the thief The next part of the game gives you three pictures of objects that the player must drag onto one section of a scene For instance beach balls and shells should be dragged to the beach pine cones and leaves go to the forest When youve dragged an the images to the right area you can enter the scene and began searching for the missing object In the forest scene you dig holes and follow arrows that are revealed For the beach scene you use a metal detector Follow the beeps until the light on the detector turns green then tap it to dig there In the garage scene you use a flashlight to scan the room Tap the stolen object when you see it in the flashlight beam In the house scene you tap cabinets until you find a key the drag the key to a locked cabinet and tap on the stolen item within In the construction site scene you just drag junk aside until the stolen object is revealed then tap on it And thats the whole game A child could play through a round in just a couple of minutes or take their time The only flaws I found were that when using the flashlight and metal detector your finger blocks the area youre trying to look at It would be easier if there was a slight offset                 Finally a kids detective game

The game speaks inlike French or something Paid 300 for a game I dont even understand     WTH

Btw for those that gave a one star review because they couldnt understand the language the characters speak gibberish Duh No one language is there              Cute

This is meant to be a little kids game but its so atmospheric I find myself playing it again and again The graphics hilarious voices and sneaky film noir music really bring this game to life Worth buying Just right challenge level for kids toothat top hat will trick you though                 Amazing

And I have yet to let a kid try it LOL              This is fun
