Through the internet players can place their fingers on a shared planchette and read messages from the spirits. They can also chat with each other during the seance. The "virtual player" mode uses a word database to control the planchette; please turn off this feature if you want a traditional Ouija board experience. We know some reviewers will call this app "fake" but many people say the same thing about Ouija boards and Ovilus devices; it is a matter of opinion.
