Please Don't Take This App Away From Your Kids

Instead, challenge your son or daughter to a game and see if you can beat him/her.

The app is "Guess the Character" and I found it to be lots of fun and frankly, it is one where observation and deductive reasoning is required.

The concept for the app is a simple one:

You have to guess the character of your opponent before your opponent guesses your character.  There are 24 characters to choose from--or the app selects for you.

You can play against a living opponent or against the "computer."

Now, each player gets a turn to ask questions about the characters--like "does the character have blonde or brown hair?" in order to narrow down the choices.  The better the questions, the faster you eliminate the wrong characters.

You can take a guess at which character is your opponent's at any time--but it is usually better to use observational skills and deductive reasoning to eliminate the most characters with each question.

Here is a video for the app:

I read that this app is great for those who know the game "Guess Who," but frankly, I never heard of it.
