Wipe and see — Little Play Square
What's on the screen
The whole screen is covered in mist. There are 4 pictures hidden underneath: a whale, a sailboat, a strawberry and the sun.
How to play
Only where a finger rubs does the mist clear and let the picture show. Rub about half of it away and the rest clears by itself, and the next picture comes.
This game sits in Games for ages 0 and 1. The age is only a guide, so children older than that and children younger than that are just as welcome to play it.
What this game doesn't have
- Time limits and scoresThere is no countdown, no score and no run of days in a row.
- Game overThere is no state that stops a child from going on. You can stop the moment interest runs out.
- Ads and purchasesNothing can be pressed by mistake that carries a child off to another site.
- Text fieldsNo name and no email address is ever asked for. There is no sign-up either.
How to start
Just open Little Play Square and pick the Wipe and see picture on the home screen. Once it has finished loading, it starts up the same way in places with no signal. Sound is switched with the speaker mark on the home screen (it steps through normal, off and quiet, so the first press turns it off).
More from Games for ages 0 and 1
- Brushing teeth — Rub over the animal's mouth and bubbles pile up while each tooth turns white. When they are all white, the animal smiles with its teeth showing and the next animal comes. Tapping works too, and there is no ending or score.
- Washing hands — Rub over both hands and little clumps of bubbles build up on them. Once they are covered, sweep down from the top and water from the tap rinses the bubbles away, and tiny stars appear by the hands. Tapping works too, and there is no ending or score.
- Shine the light — The room is dark, and wherever a finger rests a round light switches on there. Three sleeping animals wake and call out when the light reaches them, and drift back to sleep once it moves away. The light never goes out, and nothing ever ends.
