About the Game

Twenty Questions is the classic party game on one phone. One player secretly checks a word, and everyone else asks yes-or-no questions out loud, up to twenty, to find it.

One honest note: the words are in Korean, so you need to read Hangul.

How to Play

  • Pick a topic and enter the player names
  • One player, the question giver, secretly checks the word, then hides it again
  • Everyone else asks yes-or-no questions out loud, and the question giver taps Yes, No or Not sure. Each tap counts a question, and there is an undo button
  • When someone guesses it, tap Got it! and choose who got it
  • The question giver rotates through the player list each round
  • Guessing early scores more, and the question giver scores too. The final screen shows ranks, ties and shared wins

Features
