How to Play The Great Waldo Search
Quick start
Choose Normal for spoken clues or Expert for a stricter search. Scan each scene methodically and select Waldo and the lost scroll before time expires. Clocks add time or clue hunts, while finding Woof opens a flying-carpet bonus game.
Controls
D-pad: move the magnifying glass. A: select the object under the lens. B: hold to scroll the lens faster. C: pause. In the Woof bonus game, steer with the D-pad and collect bones.
