If not, you win! Can you stump the all-knowing artificial intelligence of 20 Questions? Requires 2 "AA" batteries (included). Colors may vary from item shown. Amazon.com Product Description: Plenty of hand held electronic games can be fun but it takes a special game to be both entertaining and deeply unsettling. This small spherical game of 20 Questions looks like it rolled right out of 1979 with a retro design, old arcade style sound effects, and a red light display for its various questions and guesses. Game play could not be simpler. Just think of something and then answer the ball's assorted queries by pressing buttons for yes, no, sometimes, or don't know. In our informal test, the ball accurately guessed our selection of giraffe, motorcycle, and sock but came up a little short on buttered toast. Two AA batteries are required and included. --Charlie Williams

2 negatives:
It will break if dropped too hard.
It's sarcasm gets old after a little while. (Great @ 1st)
Rating:  Date: 2008-03-23 Shockingly Smart This is a very entertaining gadget. It asks 20 questions which generally differ each time depending on your responses. "Does it get wet?" "Is it a common household item?" "Do you hold it when you use it? From this type of question it has guessed correctly that I was thinking of a window, a towel, a wall, a computer, etc. I'm usually surprised that it can guess correctly given the questions it asks. I got this as a gift from my father. It sat around for a long time before I was bored enough to try it. When I finally did, I liked it so much I bought several as gifts for people at work. Try it -- you'll like it. Rating:  Date: 2008-02-25 Great entertainment My daughter loved this toy and every adult that picked it up. I think it is great entertainment and a big coversation piece. Rating:  Date: 2008-01-27 20Q 20Q is a great toy to get people to interact with each other. I gave it to my mother-in-law for her birthday because I took mine to her house over Christmas, and she and her husband kept playing it with each other over and over again! Rating:  Date: 2008-01-22 Hey, how did they fit Nancy Drew inside this little thing? With all the reviews already written about this toy, I'll just report that it's a blast to play with for adults and kids. And, it's addictive. I purchased one as a gift, ended up having to buy another because we didn't want to give it away, and ended up buying yet another one. That's how much fun it is.
No magic... not one of those 8-balls that tells your fortune.. Radica 200 Artificial Intelligence Game is just able to use the same kind of reasoning that made Nancy Drew America's most popular, spunky little detective!
Love it! |
