“Whoowasit?” is the digital adaptation of the “Children’s game of the Year 2008” by the successful author Reiner Knizia. Now the fun tactical adventure full of mystery and magic is finally available on iPhone and iPad!

The king’s castle is in danger! The evil wizard has been seen near the kingdom. Only the king’s magical ring can protect the castle, but it has disappeared. Can you find the thief?

The children of the castle are the last hope. The animals have seen the thief: they want to help to catch him in order to get back the ring, and only the children can talk to them and understand them. A sharp eye and deduction skills are needed to solve this puzzle, as only together can the children track down the thief!
Careful thinking, strong team play and working closely together are necessary for the small detectives to reach their goal. But watch out for the ghost! Can the kingdom be saved on time from the evil magician?

Latest reviews of Whoowasit? - The board game app for iPhone and iPad

Excellent
Fun for kids and adults!! I am 47 and love it! Typical excellent Ravensburger game..
Fantastic, highly-polished version of the tabletop game
Plays just like the boardgame, but with a lot of extra bells and whistles, such as minigames for doing magic and searching rooms. The UI is polished and intuitive (example: after rolling the die, all inaccessible rooms are darkened, and accessible rooms may be moved about freely until an action is chosen). It includes a voice-narrated tutorial mode. Plays up to 4 players, human or computer-controlled. My daughter loves the color commentary of her NPC teammates. This lives up to the high standards of quality weve come to expect from Ravensburgers tabletop games. I sincerely hope they will develop more apps based on their board games!
