Product Description
Product Description
This is the big brother to the hand held 20Q, based on the classic 20 Questions game. Someone thinks of a word to which your first question is animal, vegetable or mineral? Responses to your questions can only be Yes, No or Sometimes. You then get 19 more questions to narrow down what the other person is thinking. This version of the 20Q allows you to share the fun with your friends and family, the dome allows a rotating display to share the questions and thoughts with all! Its fun, addictive and spookily accurate.an excellent choice if you are looking for that game with a difference. So how does it work? Well, this popular game has been available to play in software form for many years and so it has been possible to refine the huge database that contains all the words known in the dictionary and questions that have been learned by the programs over the years. Not forgetting the algorithm (method) which eliminates groups of the stored words based on responses to questions asked. All of this technology can be put onto a chip and presented for your utter amusement!
Product Description
Forget R2-D2 and meet 20Q. He has several significant benefits over the droid: he sits on your tabletop. He has a display in plain English. He isn't storing a message for Obi Wan Kenobi. And, most notably, he can actually read your mind. Well, he can actually read your mind with the help of 20 ever-so-clever questions (to which you can answer from a set of pre-defined responses) allied to an even cleverer electronic brain packed with stupefyingly intelligent deductive algorithms. A gadget that knows exactly what's on one's mind? Now that's what we call the appliance of science. Read on to discover how to interface with 20Q. Start by thinking of an object - any object. Animal, vegetable, mineral and more. Then keep it a secret and let 20Q loose on the problem. He'll begin by asking you quickfire questions, all projected on his domed display device. One can answer "yes", "no", "sometimes" or "don't know" to each. Then, with amazing accuracy, he'll guess the object you've imagined. Just do be prepared to be flabbergasted, for his powers of intuition are truly amazing. Styled in futuristic white and blue, with a sleek control surface, 20Q is more Space 1999 than Blankety Blank. Which is probably just as well, all things considered.

This review is from: 20 Questions Challenge (Toy)
This version of the 20q is great ,everyone can see whats being asked by it ,as it displays to the front and back,I,ve "played " at home and learnt its language ,you need to answer its questions without confusing it ! It works fine most of the time and wins !(its very happy when it wins!) But its not a dictionary,it guesses what something is ,not inaminate things ,.Took it to the office and people were queueing up to take it on ,and were fascinated , cruise missile was guessed by it ,when nuclear bomb was the answer ,,,its good enough!!!!!!!! Not sure how long the fascination will last ,not sure younger than teenagers will lock on to its line of thought ,,,try the smaller 20q if not sure ,,but Im having fun !!

This is one amazing toy, we have had so much fun playing it, and trying to fox it, but it seems to win 97% of the time! Certainly tests the brain when trying to answer the questions. Definitely a good buy for people of an older age too...fascinating!

This review is from: 20 Questions Challenge (Toy)
I bought this as a present under the influence of previous reviews, and I have to admit I was disappointed. It often gets close to the answer whilst guessing correctly only about fifty percent of the time; for example: police car rather than ambulance, seed instead of nut, vodka rather than wine. Still pretty impressive, but if we went head to head, I'd favour myself over Mr 20Q.
