Guess Who? is a two-player board game in which players each guess the identity of the other’s chosen character. The game was developed by Israeli game inventors Ora and Theo Coster, the founders of Theora Design. It was first released in Dutch in 1979 under the name Wie is het? Milton Bradley then produced the game in the United Kingdom, and it was brought to the United States in 1982. It is now owned by Hasbro.
Each player starts the game with a board that includes cartoon images of 24 people and their first names, with all the images standing up. Each player selects a card of their choice from a separate pile of cards containing the same 24 images. The objective of the game is to be the first to determine which card one’s opponent has selected. Players alternate asking various yes or no questions to eliminate some of the candidates, such as:
“Does your person wear a hat?”
“Does your person wear glasses?”
“Is your person a man?”
“Does he look like a bitch?”
The player will then eliminate candidates (based on the opponent’s response) by flipping those images down until only one is left. Well-crafted questions allow players to eliminate one or more possible cards.
