Creople is no longer available in the iTunes App Store.
Whether you’re going over the river and through the woods for the holidays or hosting a feast at your home, you should check out Creople, a delightful game that’s fun for everyone!
The Urban Dictionary defines “Creople” as creepy people. The app developer defines “Creople” as creative + people. I define it as fun!
Creople is an iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch app that is a blast for two people or more to play. This game, entertaining for young and old alike, has four panels: head, torso, legs and feet. One panel is shown at a time and the person or team holding the iPhone is supposed to draw that part of the body, open the new panel and pass it to the next team. That team doesn’t see what the previous teams have drawn.
At the end of the game the Creople is revealed for hilarious results. You can save your Creople to your Gallery within the app, to the Camera Roll on your device, or post it on Facebook.
I like the game because it’s fun for two or more people to play and it involves cooperation. Two people can pass the device back and forth for their turns to play. If you have a larger group, you can make teams of people to draw each part. Even very young children can play this game because it comes pre-loaded with shapes to help you draw.
I tested this game with my crackshot team of kid testers (boys and girls, ages 6-15) who put it through the paces. The ultimate test of an app is whether the kids protest when I try to move onto the next app for them to test. No one wanted to quit Creople.
At first the kids followed the rules, trying to draw people accurately. But as the rounds progressed, the kids and the drawings got sillier and sillier. Giggles flooded the room as each team of kids tried make their drawings goofy.
This game comes in very handy for car rides, plane trips and other occasions where you’re looking for a fun way to entertain the kids. The game can also be an effective ice breaker if your family gathering needs an injection of merriment!
Do you enjoy group games? Do you like games that bring together young and old players? Are you looking for ways to entertain guests during the holidays? Let us know in the Comments section below!
My children are going to LOVE this Carolyn! Sounds like a great game for long car/airplane trips.
Hi Ruth, You’re right, this game is perfect for long car/plane trips. I really like how it fosters cooperation between the players as well as creativity. I hope your children really enjoy the game. You might like it too! 🙂
Sure sounds entertaining Carolyn!
Though my kids have crossed the age of playing games, but this one sure is going to get them back on track. I guess enjoying such games as a family would do wonders and work well for getting everyone together as well.
The coming holidays would be the perfect time to take some time out and play the game.
Thanks for sharing and letting us know about it. 🙂
Hi Harleena, One of the many great aspects of this game is that it is fun for any age! You don’t need any special skill for the game, just a desire to have fun!
Harleena, I am very thankful to have connected with you this year through the blogosphere! Thank you for your wonderful blog and for your support of The Wonder of Tech! 🙂
That sounds interesting, I think games can be good at Christmas. They can promote cooperation and harmony between the children. The youngest coming to my home this Christmas is 16 years old and I still haven;t decided what to buy my niece!
I did dusk and night photographs this week. I’m still waiting for the photography contest to be judged. There was ice on my car this morning, winter approaches fast; I hope my hospital appointment comes before the snow does this year!
Hi Mike, I have to agree. I’ve seen gatherings where playing games really helped people connect and feel comfortable around each other. Creople is one of those kinds of games. There’s no score, no timing, no right or wrong, just fun!
I am heading over to your blog now. I am very thankful for your blog and for all of the wonderful lessons you impart there, Mike! 🙂
I like the creepy people definition; I will have to use that in conversation. My friends will think I’m hip and ‘with it’…..:).
The boys are home and picked up their iPhones last night. They are so happy……..
Your battery solution helped; I still had to re-charge by 6:30 pm however. I’m sure once some of the newness wears off and I’m not exploring as much I will find a pattern that works for me.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
Hi Bill, Great point! If you’re a fan of creepy people, then you can draw them with this app! 😀
I’m glad your sons are enjoying their new iPhones. Make sure you connect with each other using FaceTime. It’s a lot of fun to have a FaceTime call with a loved one. My brother just called me on FaceTime today for Thanksgiving and the cousins got to have a video chat with each other.
You may be playing with, uh, I mean using your iPhone so much because it’s new that your battery doesn’t have a chance to keep up. You may also want to go into Settings => Notifications and turn them all off to see if that helps your battery make it through the day.
Have a very happy Thanksgiving, Bill! 🙂
Actually yesterday was pretty good; it made it through the day but I didn’t use it quite as much. I did turn off notifications as well and let’s see if it helps as well.
Thanks for your Tech Tips…………:)
Hi Bill, Happy to help! I’m glad my suggestions are making a difference. Keep us posted! 🙂
Hi Carolyn,
Wow “creople”. I’m pretty sure this could have been inspired on those Wal-Martians pictures LOL
I’m going to recommend this for my niece’s iPad 😉
Thanks!
Sergio
Hi Sergio, Welcome to The Wonder of Tech! I’m sure your niece will thoroughly enjoy this fun game. You might enjoy it too! 🙂
I am still playing Smash Balls and I’m getting addicted 🙂 And now there’s a new game I have to install 🙂
Creople sounds like a game my kids will love.
I’m using my iPad a lot more for gaming than I thought I would. But, that’s because it’s awesome to play games on it.
Thanks a lot for sharing the games.
Hi Jens, I’m so glad you like Ball Smash! I’m enjoying it too. I’m running three games now, on my iPad, Android and iPhone. I am up to Level 25 on my highest game. I thought I was a goner for a while but the balls line up well so I think I’m in good shape.
The iPad really is a great gaming device. I enjoy the larger screen, though with Creople, it doesn’t seem to matter the size of the screen. It’s fun either way!
that’s very interesting carolyn
thank you 🙂
Hi Farouk, Welcome to The Wonder of Tech! I’m very glad you found this interesting. 🙂
Hey Carolyn,
How are you ?
Hmm, creepy people. I see a lot of them around when I go to malls :). Fantastic app for the kids, of course the more the number of kids, the more is fun. 🙂
Thanks for sharing this info , Carolyn.
Hi Ashvini, Great idea! Head to the malls not just for holiday shopping but also to get inspiration to play Creople. Make sure you stare long and hard at the creepy people so you’re able to remember them for a long time! 😉
Having acquired an I-Pad a few months ago, I am now finding fun games to,load and this looks like one for me!!! Thanks for the tip.
Hi Cris, Welcome to The Wonder of Tech! I hope you really enjoy Creople. Also check out Ball Smash! My Favorite Game Ever! for even more fun. 🙂
Hi Carolyn,
I’m so honored you chose to review my iPhone/iPad app, ‘Creople’! Thank you so much! I hope your readers find it creative and fun! Really great for all ages!
