Hunting high and low for Wally, how does he work on a smartphone?

"No..." "No..." "There he is!". Yes, for some Friday fun it's Capcom Europe's port of the popular children's book series, Where's Wally! How well does an artwork based book translate to the gaming world on your smartphone? Ewan decides to risk a pun and takes a look.

I was half hoping for a huge Where’s Wally illustration, just like in the books, and to be challenged to find the red and white striped protagonist, but this never happened. Instead, imagine if you had a box of playing cards illustrated with the Where’s Wallly characters (Wally, Wenda, Odlaw, Woof and Wizard Whitebeard) and you used these to play games of observation and recognition against the clock.

That’s what you have here, with the addition of a few typical “Where’s Wally” scenes to use in some of the later levels.
