Younger children can play this game without having a strategy. As they get better, children know what questions eliminate the most people. Deduction, reasoning, logic, all are enhanced by playing this fun version of twenty questions.

Because this game moves so quickly it is great for making a tournament event, especially at holiday dinners or family get togethers where there are a lot of children. Just break out the Guess Who and see who wants to play winner!

Object of the game: Determine who the mystery person is on your opponent's card before yours is figured out.
