Toys and Games Reviews of Radica 20Q Artificial Intelligence Game - Colors may vary since the item may come in 3 different colors
Customer Review: It's okay
Summary: 3 Stars
My friend bought me this item for christmas, and when playing it, I found there are some pros and cons for this item.
Pros:
1. It may seem to tire you quickly, but you actually play with it for more then 3 days.
2. Sometimes it guesses weird things, like "Is it everything?" or "Is it a pimple?" Which proves you don't always have to guess normal items such as a coat, cellphone, plant, etc.
3. Red backlight to play with after the lights go out. ^.^
4. You can control the speed, and usually it only takes 5 minutes to play.
5. Instead of having only "yes" and "no," you have "unknown" and "sometimes" if your not sure of it or it only happens sometimes.
6. There is this cute little sound it makes. =D
Cons:
1. Sometimes it just won't guess the easiest things.
2. Between every few or so questions, there's this message that reads "I'm gunna win!" or something like that, and it takes up time and annoys the crap out of you.
3. It acts like it's all perfect and stuff.
4. It asks more then 20 questions, like it just HAS to win.
5. You can't turn it off once you turned it on, you have to go through a whole 20 questions or more to turn it back off again, but I guess this one doesn't really count because I found a solution: Once the screen says "ready?" put it on a desk or something and don't fiddle around with it for some time, and it will turn off without you having to go through a whole series of questions.
6. You can laugh your head off while answering the stupidest questions. (My sister did!)
Overall, the item is pretty good, I would have rated it 3 and a half stars if I could have, but look for deals so you could buy this item for less, and then it could be worth it.
Customer Review: 20 Questions Indeed
Summary: 3 Stars
This is what happened to me last week when I played a round of 20 Questions with the Handheld Machine.
Machine: Who are you?
Me: I am me.
Machine: Are you a vegetable?
Me: Yeah, a couch potato. Tee hee.
Machine: Are you related to an onion?
Me: Why. Did I make you cry? Ha!
Machine: Are you alive?
Me: Totally.
Machine: Are you an object?
Me: Duh, no. Didn't you hear my last answer?
Machine: Do you have feelings?
Me: Yes.
Machine: Do you have feelings?
Me: Yes. Do you have a stuttering problem? Ha ha.
Machine: Do you have feelings?
Me: Yes! Jesus.
Machine: Do you have feelings?
Me: Sometimes, yeah. Why? Why do you keep asking me that?
Machine: Do you have feelings?
Me: I'm not cold. Some people say I am, but they don't know me all that well. Has Janice been playing with you?
Machine: Do you have feelings?
Me: Yeah, anger! Stop asking me that.
Machine: Are you taller than a ship?
Me: What? Am I--? No.
Machine: Do you have feelings?
Me: Sure I do. I mean, yeah, I block a lot of them out, but I definitely--
Machine: Do you have feelngs?
Me: I--
Machine: Yes?
Me: I think so.
Machine: Are you blue?
Me: I don't...I don't know.
Machine: I do not understand your answer.
Me: I'm sorry, machine. It's not you. It's me.
Machine: Do you have four legs?
Me: Maybe.
Machine: Do you have feelings?
Me: No.
Machine: You are a machine.
Me: And you are me.
(Then the curtains come down. I come out and people throw flowers at the machine. Meanwhile I sit and weep robot tears until I rust.)
Customer Review: WOW! This toy is cool!
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this toy, and I think it is like magic! It KNOWS what you are thinking of! It is like a little mind reader! Here is how it works: You think of something, and then it asks you if it is an animal, a vegetable, a miniral, other, of unknown. It will askyou 19 more questions. Then, it will guess what you are thinking of. If it is wrong, then it will ask five more questions. then it will guess what you are thinking of again. If it gets that wrong, you win!!!!!!! If it gets one of it's guesses right, then it beat you!! You can set the text to go fast of slow, or inbetween, mayby because some kids dont read as fast as others. This is a great game for on the schoolbus, or at home, in the car or even if you are in your room in the dark! It is not good to play outside, because the sun makes it hard to see the questions on the screen. When I was thinking of a basketball, it asked me 20questions, and then guessed. It said ball! I thought of frog, it asked me 20 questions, and it said treefrog! I thought of amathyst, it asked me 20 questions, and it said amathyst! It is educational because children can learn things from playing with it. I know I sure learned a thing or two asking my parents the answers to some questions 20Q asked me. Even my teacher likes it! Sometimes she lets us play a class game of 20Q with my 20Q game, if we have time at the end of the day. I reccomend the color purple for this toy; Or mayby red if it comes in that color. Mine is purple. 20Q rocks! Rock on 20Q. You should get one Go get one! They are cool! NOTE: It is not always accurate. dont think of famous people, cartoon characters, company names, etc.Customer Review: Can you beat the computer? Rarely

20Q Artificial Intelligence Game
Much like everyone else at the time, the 20Q craze consumed me. I played with it a few times at the store and eventually decided that it was one of the most enjoyable games I have ever played. The game is so simplistic, you can pick it up and play it without much thought.
The idea of the game is a normal game of 20 questions. You think of an item and the game will ask you 20 questions to try and figure out what you are thinking. If you stump it until that point, you will be asked a few more questions. If the game still guesses incorrectly, you have slain this dragon. It is not easy though. This game will beat you almost every time. Only if you think of something off the wall will you defeat it.
The is quite durable, making it safe for clumsy kids. The design is perfect and can fit right in your hand. Sounds can be turned on and off. The battery life is designed to last for years. The screen, which is a bright red, is very easy to see and read. There are only four answer choices: Yes, No, Sometimes, and Unknown. These are all you need though considering how often you are beaten. The only thing wrong with this game is that there is an improved 20Q Deluxe available. There are also many other theme based 20Q out there. It is whatever you enjoy. This is just a common version for any normal person.
Customer Review: This thing freaks me out! (In a good way!!)
Summary: 5 Stars
A friend showed me this little ball that will tell you what you are thinking by asking 20 questions. "Right" I thought. So I gave it a shot. It not only got my first 3 guesses right, but it also got another guess that freaked me out! I was thinking of BLOOD and I decided to use the Mineral category. I don't know if I thought I would fool it, or if I really thought it would be considered more of a mineral than an "other". When that ball told me I was thinking of BLOOD, I gave the ball back to my friend and told her it was "evil!!" and to not show it to me ever again. OK, so 5 minutes later I was playing with it. This game is addicting. I got one for my parents and my brother and they are also getting a kick out of it. I will tell you what I have to keep reminding my mother... be very literal in your answers. Example: when I showed my mom the BLOOD word, one of the questions was "can you give it as a gift" and she wanted to say "yes" because you DO give blood and it IS the "gift of life". I had to tell her to think more like, would you wrap it up and say "Happy Birthday" to someone with this item?
The fun part for me is NOT to try and stump the ball, but to actually have it guess my words. I keep it one in the bathroom (in lieu of a book or magazine..... you know...) and I was goofing around and decided to see if it could guess "number 2" (in little kid potty language). It did. Freaky Evil Ball. I LOVE IT!
