Where's Waldo?: The Incredible Paper Chase is a Where's Waldo? book which was released in 2009.
In this book, fans follow Waldo through more astounding scenes, each containing a hard-to-find piece of paper torn from his sketchpad. The book includes an exciting parade, a confounding maze, a tricky spot-the-difference challenge, and other puzzles. The book also recycles features from the long out-of-print Ultimate Fun Book including the Muddy Swampy Jungle Game with press-out counters and tongue-twisting forfeit cards, plus the press-out circus scene.
