20Q

Remember the game '20 questions' that most of us would have played some time or rather - you know, all that Animal, Vegetable and Mineral stuff? Well simply put, 20Q is an electronic version of this popular guessing game but the difference is, 20Q nearly always guesses the correct answer. Astonishing stuff isn't it?

...and when we first tried it, we were extremely sceptical like any person would be. How could a small gizmo like this keep someone occupied for hours on end doing nothing much more than flashing some LEDs across a screen? But with alarming results, apart from the odd occasion when we'd think of something way out there that wasn't even in the English dictionary, it told each and every one of us actually what we were thinking. Honest.

To play, all you do is think of something...anything...then answer a series of 20 questions. "Is it flat?", "Does it bring joy to people?", "Is it smaller than a loaf of bread?" etc. Plus to taunt you, 20Q will sometimes display messages such as "You can't beat me", I can't believe you are thinking of that?" and "You thought you were tricky." Yeah, real tricky!

Once all 20 questions are answered and if 20Q manages to guess what you're thinking (which will most probably be the case), it wins. If not, you win, but trust us - it's rather depressing just how many times it succeeds!

Still, win or lose, you're guaranteed to be addicted. So the question is, can you stump the 'all knowing' artificial intelligence of 20Q?
