So the narrator would just be describing each and every character on the pages, from left to right and down? "Man with messy brown hair wearing blue three piece suit. Toddler eating melted ice cream from the street. Woman with large butt falling off a chair" etc until it gets to Waldo?

I imagined it'll be something like: [Audio voice whispers urgently]: “No, not that guy in stripes… that’s just a barber. Keep looking… warmer… warmer… oh wait, that’s a candy cane.” 😂

There actually is

They describe everyone in the image one by one, and when it gets to Waldo it just says, Waldo

It's on Spotify

I’m still waiting for the movie:

A top-secret government project (W.A.L.D.O) goes missing, and is found by a highly-intelligent criminal, who uses it to travel through time, attempting to influence major historical events to gain power, all while evading capture by the CIA

try listening to Shelby Foote's "the Civil War" audiobook,..
..try deciphering a Civil War battle from every prespective,..in your mind. 'Right is Left to the other General,..but there's Lees on both sides' 'North is South depending on who's attacking, and who's retreating' for 160 hours.

I had this conversation with my buddy last week.

We actually made a sample chapter. It's just tons of descriptions of things that look like Waldo but aren't for like 12 minutes then one that describes Waldo perfectly as Waldo then another 6 minutes of Waldoesque things.

I have often wondered why our version here in Australia is called 'Where's Wally'?

Wally is the original name from the UK editions. They changed it to Waldo for the US market. In France he's Charlie, in Germany, it's Walter.

This reminds me: there’s a “Werner Herzog reads Where’s Waldo” video on YouTube that’s so great. An oldie but goodie. (Not actually read by Herzog.)

It would be even crazier if we could find a way to shorten the word calculator.

I have never found the word "calculator" to be unreasonably long. However, given its meaning, "abbreviation" is just ridiculous.

Maybe it would be like a text adventure where you're told what is in an area (a tree, a red car, a tire swing, etc) and then you decide to investigate each thing and if he's there it tells you

It would just be ambient crowd noises and traffic and marching bands and then if you're paying attention there's a goofy "hey you found me!" somewhere in there

It would be something like this: not Waldo, not Waldo, not Waldo, ... , not Waldo, Waldo, not Waldo, not Waldo, not Waldo, etc.

The trick is you have to listen closely to when they skip the word "not"

Bob Odenkirk made this joke on Dr. Katz Professional Therapist in 1997.

"Those books on tape are a rip off, they're really, really boring. I had Where's Waldo. 'Guy delivering mail. Guy selling hot dogs. Two kids with a ball. Waldo. Woman with a shopping cart. Dog.' Don't get them."
