Ist da wer?!

Ist da wer?! is the hide-and-seek game in which attentive children can recognise what cannot be seen. All the animals have hidden in a large bush. But only a few blobs of colour can be seen in the viewing slits between the branches. If you look closely, you can even see what you can‘t see and thus recognise which animals are hiding in the thicket at the very bottom of the bush. Once you have found out which animals have retreated into the thicket, you quickly grab their wooden figure and are given picture cards from which you can put together your own little zoo. Ten pairs of animals have hidden in a large three-dimensional bush, into which the players look together from the front. Through the slits between the branches, however, only a few blobs of colour can be seen. Only those who look closely can see which animals are missing, because they have made themselves completely invisible in the thicket at the lower end of the bush. The game is always played simultaneously. One player shakes the bush so that 5 animals settle in the 5 places in the thicket that no one can see. In front of the bush there is another wooden figure for each animal species. Each player tries to be the first to grab exactly the animal that has made itself invisible in the thicket. If this is successful, the secret of the thicket is revealed to make the "disappeared" animals visible and to find out which players have caught exactly these "right" animals. This is rewarded with a picture card from which each player can put together their own little zoo. The first player to do this wins. —description from the publisher
