Hidden picture: guess the word on screen
The picture is there, but hidden. Tile by tile, or zooming out little by little, it is revealed: who recognises it first? The word appears, the voice says it, and on to the next picture.

In 3 steps
- Add your words: one picture is enough, a list makes a whole game.

Ways to use it

Frequently asked questions
Who removes the tiles?
You, or a child who comes to the board: each touch removes a tile. Without a touch screen, “A bit more” removes one at random, and “Show all” shows the whole picture.
When does the word appear?
When the picture is fully revealed, or as soon as you touch “Show all” because a child has found it. The word is written under the picture, and the voice says it.
