Jacky Where Is It?

What it is: find hidden objects in hand-drawn pictures (created by the cartoonist Jacky Jackson). 3 main categories (animals, people, objects) with 18 puzzles each plus bonus levels (over 90 puzzles in all).

What you do with it:listen to the instructions then try to find a hidden object in the selected picture (drag, zoom in, zoom out for better view). Earn stars (the faster you find a solution the more stars you get) to unlock new levels.

What we liked:the concept, excellent artwork, quality of the puzzles, ease of use, audio 'introductions' for the puzzles, visual tour/instructions, visual clues, overall 'look and feel' of the app.

What we didn't like:the levels have to be unlocked one by one. We would like to see a special mode for kids (timing feature turned off, easier puzzles selected, Twitter/Facebook buttons turned off). Some of the puzzles may be challenging even for parents.

An excellent visual/brain teaser app, best played with a parent available for help with more difficult puzzles.
