20Q Handheld Game
By Kakoa on
The first time I played this 20Q game I freaked out a little. I actually thought it had cheated by having a hidden microphone somewhere on it and had heard the word I was thinking of! I was just looking for an excuse of why I lost! I did it a few more times without saying a word to anyone and it still figured out the word I was thinking of.
20Q is an awesome game. It's really fun the first time you beat it, but it took a while before I stumped it. You really have to think of something obscure to win. It is a great game to have around during holiday parties or get togethers with friends. It got passed around alot at our family Christmas get together. Now, I have one, my cousin has one, and my in-laws have one!
This version of 20Q is great for traveling in the car and plane. It is small enough to fit in a pocket or purse. The only bad thing is that you can not turn it off, you have to wait for it to turn itself off. Also, if you hit it on something in a bag it can turn on out of nowhere. It is nice that you can turn the sound off. I can play it without bothering anyone else. The sound effects are not that great anyway.
The basics idea of this game is to think of a word you don't thin the game can figure out. It can be anything...object, place, or even an emotion. The game will start asking you questions. You can answer yes, no, unknown, or not sure. The game will continue asking you questions until it thinks it has figured it out or has reached its 20th question. If it gets to 20 and you say it is incorrect, it will ask you up to 5 more questions before it gives up and you win.
This game is amazing. I forgot how good it was until i read this. I may ask for one for Christmas...
I love this game too! Although, I must say I must not be very good at it, because the game wins almost every time.
haha i played the one online and i got it stumped with wallpaper! YAY!
I agree with you on this, till this day I am amazed at how this thing knows what I am thinking even when I try to think of something so far fetched. Cool product. Thanks for sharing!
we have this also, it is amazing how it works. I do have to admit that we have been able to stump it a few times, but most of the time it gets it right!
We have this and fun how the answeres come up.
This is sort of like the Magic 8 Ball, but much better! It is really fun to play in a group. We actually used to leave it in the family Room, sneak outside, select a word and come back in , and the thing still beat us!
You're right-this looks like the perfect size to tuck in a purse & take on a plane!! Looks like a fun game!!
I guess this could be fun, but what is wrong with playing with another person?
This seems like a great game for in the car! Thanks for sharing!
