|
Now you can play the new and improved version of 20Q! Think of something…anything and I bet I can guess it! Answer my questions; if I guess your thoughts within 20 questions, I win. If not, you win! In version 2 my artificial intelligence is even more accurate and I have NEW questions, NEW answers, MORE attitude, UNDO button and an EASIER to read LIT screen! Prepared to be amazed at how accurate I am, demonstrating virtual mind reading capabilities.
As you know, we are science experts. We have never placed much faith in the mystical babblings of so-called ‘telepaths’. Hard fact and empirical evidence are what we need – and this clever device gives you an awful lot of both. Quite simply, 20Q is a wonder of modern science. Using the latest AI technology it is a handheld game that guesses what you’re thinking – usually in less than 20 questions (making it a great deal cleverer than some people). But it doesn’t do it using basic guesswork or what others might call ‘magic’; no, it is powered by the latest in AI (artificial intelligence) technology. Here’s how it works:In the best traditions of the classic ‘yes/no’ parlor game, 20Q asks a series of questions and then, using the AI technology, guesses the object that the player is thinking of. It does this through a neural network of neron-like nodes, mirroring the structure of a simple human brain – no, I’m not referring to you. Please don’t be touchy.

Think of an item , even something obscure, keep it to yourself, and after questioning somehow this little techno brain thing normally manages to come up with the right answer, presumably by some process of elimination. Ok, so I’m easily impressed, but for such a low priced gadget it is quite remarkable. Looks well made too. It will keep children and adults amused for ages and beats I spy hands down in the car. I can thoroughly recommend this fun toy.
It’s great for amusing parents too! My daughter received this (gift wrapped from Amazon!) for Christmas, she has played it endlessly and is still not bored with it. On a 200 mile journey it kept the whole family amused trying to catch it out!
All you need to do is think of an object or thing and answer the questions which are scrolled on the little screen. A very simple but clever idea, very well executed.
Endless fun in a hand sized package! We recommend it.
I recently received this as a present, and ever cynical as I am, decided to see if I could crack this "guess what I’m thinking" game. I was convinced that Nuclear Submarine would be enough to confuse it, but it got it!
Pretty much 90% of the things I was thinking of, it managed to guess after the second attempt. The remainder predominantly being items of a more adult-nature which I wouldn’t imagine to be included in a kids/family toy!
With regards to educational value, the 20Q ball forces the user to think about the item they are thinking of, and whether it qualifies for the statement it is asking. For instance, is a Nuclear Submarine round? Does it float? Is Plutonium smooth, etc.
This is a perfect present for Xmas, as the whole family can get involved and come up with items for the 20Q to guess. It will also cause unexpected laughter when the ball suggests it’s first answer, which is usually far-removed from the item you are thinking of! It’s cheap enough to warrant itself being a stocking filler, but what a stocking filler it is!
