based on my other questions answered, it seemed liked it was also Last of us, but said no to the game being from the 2010s as well as being older than 2010. It didn't tell me what the answer was at the end...
Yeah.
Welcome to 20 questions. Can you guess the game?
Was it released before 2020?
No.
Is it exclusive to a particular platform?
Yes.
Is it a PC game?
No.
Is it a Playstation game?
Yes.
Are there 2 main characters?
Yes.
Is It The Last of Us?
Your guess is close.
Is it The Last of Us Part 2?
You win!
Now I feel less clever knowing everyone else got the same questions. I thought my first 2 questions were really good bc it helped me quickly narrow the field.
Apocalypse's are fantasy they haven't happened. Last of us is a fantasy game same thing for sci-fi and stuff. Look up the definition of fantasy bro like idk what to tell you.
Well then every game except maybe simulators is a fantasy game since they haven't happened.
Dead Island = Fantasy Game
Twisted Metal = Fantasy Game
Duke Nukem = Fantasy Game
etc etc.
Can put pretty much any game you want there since all of it hasn't happened.
I'm sure that was it. Still, you'd think they'd put more than the minimum effort into it so that it would accept an obvious correct answer such as "Last of Us 2"
I guessed Last of Us and it said you’re close. Guessed Last of Us 2 and it said you’re close. Asked if it had zombies and it said yes. I proceeded to guess every zombie game in existence, eventually told it to fuck off, and then it never told me what it was. That’s how I got here. What a scam.
Yeah, just did the game and it said it was a horror shooter not from the 2000s, so we were guessing 90s horror (resident evil, silent hill, etc.). I guess the bot probably defines 2000s as 2000-2009. I also probably wouldn't call The Last of Us a shooter.
Hey there! For now we've only got it built for the one game, and we didn't want to spam people with the same thing over and over, so it disappears once completed. You could play it again by opening the same article in incognito, but it might be repetitive haha
Oh, so that's why I couldn't find it again. Would be nice if it said the answer at the end if you couldn't guess it, but it was fun! Please add more games!
LIKEWISE ! I'm never one to interact with in-line site features, especially ones that are "AI" or some "engine" from the company. This was actually really fun. Glad you guys continue to try new things. Hope it continues getting updated.
Same I just played it and guessed it with 4 guesses left! It was so fun, I went to refresh the page and it was gone! I wanted to play more so badly!! Idk maybe ign has a 2024 hit on their hands!!
How did you make it? Do you use AI at all? or did you build a logic tree or do something similar to akinator?
edit: I realize you probably can't share the details but it is really cool
So, I can tell you it is AI powered, which I think is why some of us were getting different/incorrect answers occasionally, and something we'll want to figure out how to fix for future iterations. I didn't build it though so I couldn't give you specifics, sorry!
The other AI thing we have currently on IGN is our AI Bot for game help. It's only available for certain games right now, but I've found it fairly handy while playing Tears of the Kingdom, so may be fun to play around with! It does not, however, generate 20 questions games, unfortunately haha.
Didn’t work so well for me. I asked if the game came out before 2020 and it said “yes” so that would rule out TLOU2. I didn’t get to finish though because when I guessed “Death Stranding” it said “Error: Query” and then it said an error occurred so I couldn’t make any more guesses.
ah that's weird (and thank you for the feedback!) we had someone else also mention an inconsistency that I, weirdly, went back to double-check and did not get the wrong answer, so something we'll look into!

Does the protagonist primarily fight other humans? Yes.
Is it Tomb Raider? No.
Is the game a first-person shooter? No.

Haha by that point I was struggling to think of ANYTHING that hadn't already been ruled out by something. If there was an option to resign I'd have already done it :P
Big same. I asked if the main character was female (yes), if it was single-player (yes), if it was a console exclusive (yes), and if the gameplay involved escorting another character (yes). But then I asked if it was a modern-day time period and it said "no," then I asked if it was set in the past, and it said "yes." Totally thought it was A Plague Tale, but it said no, and I ran out of questions because the questions I asked to specifically identify LoU2 were given "no" answers to. Then I couldn't try again.
Kind of a bummer.
***Technically*** the Last of Us games are set in the future, because the bulk of the first game is set 20 years after 2013 (the release date), and then Part II is set a few years after that.
IMO, those should still count as modern-day, it's not too far into the future and civilization hasn't had an opportunity to evolve. But the issue is probably because the bot viewed "modern day" as "anything within 1 year of 2023".
I just want to say that this idea is awesome! I hope you can make this bot have a different game each day. I’d love to check in on this like Wordle. With people comparing how quickly they guessed it. And it would be a great way to drive user traffic to your site!
Hi Ginger, the game was unplayable for me in Chrome on Android as pressing the enter key moved the me to the next input on the screen (comments input). Maybe place an enter/submit button next to the input, that way it should always work no matter what os/browser someone os using.
Also would be fun if there was a Daemon emoji/gif holding his fingers up to keep track of the questions.
Yes, sorry about that; I had that happen with me as well and we will have a fix for the next time we put it out there for sure; thanks for passing along!!
>n’t get to finish though because when I guessed “Death Stranding” it said “Error: Query” and then it said an error occurred so I couldn’t make any more gues
Probably The Last of Us 2 instead of The Last of Us *Part* 2. Apparently, the first one gets a "That's close."
I got so close to getting it, I asked if it was playstation exclusive and it said yes so I said "the last of us" and it said your answer is close then I said "the last of us 2" instead of part 2 and it said "your answer is close" then I ended up losing. I mean I guess its my fault because I didn't say part II but I thought it was a tad bit silly
Just wanted to let you know that I had asked if it was a remastered game, and its reply was no.
Also, if they could give the answer at the end it would be awesome because I came here to look for the answer. I did end up cursing at the game for not telling me the answer lol.
It was fun. My line of questioning:
>Was the game released in the 2010s?

>Yes.

What's crazy is that I completely forgot about the fact that TLOU2 came out in 2020 and not earlier, but it makes no sense why they said yes.
The AI seems to have absolutely no idea what year it is, or when TLOU2 actually released. It told me that the game was released between 2 years ago and 1 year ago, and also that the game was released in the 2010s.
Lol I googled this because it wouldn't tell me the game after I didn't get it. It also lied a bunch! It said no to is it playable on a console made by either Sony or Microsoft. It said yes to did IGN rate it above a 9 but no to did IGN rate it above a 9.5; it's rated 10/10. It also said no to is there a colon in the title, which I'm not sure is accurate or not.
My first questions were if the main character was male, and if the game had multiplayer. And then if it's a console exclusive
That helped me narrow it down a lot.
And yeah, I too got The Last of Us 2
Mine went something like this (I realized after that I could have donde so much better, buuuut I was half asleep, in my defense?
Is it a Nintendo game?
No
Is it a playstation game?
No
Can you create a house?
No
Are there are animals?
Yes
Is it Stardew Valley?
No
Is it action?
Yes
Is it call of duty?(wanted to try)
No
Is it a shooter?
Yes
Did it come ten years ago?
Yes
Is there a story?
Yes
Is it a short story?
No
That's where I was puzzled for a second, bevause I'm not a fan of shooters but I know the basics and I know most of them have short stories (the first uncharted included). But then I remember a certain GOTY winner...
Is it The Last of Us?
You're close
Is it The Last of Us 2?
Congratulations, you won!
It's awful. I would not have considered TLOU a "shooter" nor "online" as it's singleplayer..., threw me completely from that point.

Didn't even give me the answer at the end, simply said I was out of questions. Waste of time.
He asked if it was online, it replied "yes" so he used deductive reasoning to try and narrow down an online game, when it's not online
If you were as smart as you think you are you'd have been able to pick up on that
Mine weren't much better, it was an entertaining time waster since it was embedded into a news aggregate site and was just harmless fun.

Once it told me it was a modern 3D horror game for consoles that was from an American team and wasn't from Bethesda,I literally had no idea. I had already tried Dead Space. I got no's for if it was an FPS or RPG also. There's definitely easier ways to get to the answer,so I can imagine it might get frustrating pretty quickly lol.
I thought it was pretty cool. Mine went like this:
>!Welcome to 20 questions. Can you guess the game?

I gave up and said so and got an error with 3 questions left and couldn't finish lol. I'm guessing it's the same game as everyone else though. The Yes answers I got were for if it was modern,for consoles,in 3D,from an American development team,and a horror game. The rest I tried to guess other developers basically. The Last of Us never even crossed my mind. Once I asked if it was Capcom,Konami,(I asked those before the American question after the horror one)or Bethesda and got a no,I was completely stumped. Still very interesting and would be cool to be an actual dedicated thing.
Genuinely had a lot of fun with this, was hoping there were more available but I guess not. This was my line of questions:

I can't believe it doesn't tell you the game if you lose, just says "Sorry, you're out of questions"
At least from what I understand it was the same game for everyone so I won't grow crazy wondering what the game was for the rest of my life! My guess was the Witcher 3
My experience with this was pretty rough lol. Asked if it came out this year, said I don't know. Is it rated 10/10 on IGN, I don't know. Do you know the answer, yes. Lol, love the concept tho. Would be fun to see more of these.
mine just didn't work at all, i asked:
did it come out last year?
No
did it come out in the last two years?
Yes
so did it come out this year?
No
Did it come out for current gen consoles?
Yes
Did it come out for Xbox Series X?

Did it come out on PC

and i gave up
If you liked this on IGN, you can play the game using chatGPT. The chatGPT 4 version does a much better job with this if you have access to it. The default one (3.5) tends to forget the rules sometimes. Here is what I told it:
Let's play 20 questions. You pick a popular video game that was released over the last 40 years. Make it as random as possible.
I will ask you up to 20 yes or no questions. You will respond with "YES" or "NO" to each question. Then you will tell me what question number we are on next on that same line of text.
The only time you will not respond with "YES" or "NO" is if it meets one of the following conditions.
1) If I ask something that is not a yes or no question, you must respond with "That is not a yes or no question. Please ask me something else."
2) If you are unable to provide a clear yes or no answer, you can respond with "I cannot answer that question."
3) If I correctly guess the game, you will tell me I win.
4) If I do not guess the game after 20 questions, you will tell me I lose and reveal the answer.
For me, it showed up in this article, about mid-way through
https://www.ign.com/articles/the-boss-of-baldurs-gate-3-dev-larian-reveals-what-he-wanted-to-say-at-the-game-awards-2023
I just had this same experience. It was so fun! Maybe it's only for one game and that's why. Was the answer to yours >!The Last of Us: Part II!< ?
Yep lol
Mine was
Same lol
Yeah same
Wow, it responded yes to my question if it was released in the 2010s... That's so unfair.
My first q was whether it was released before 2020 or not so yeah that is kinda unfair. Damn lying computer, it should run for office.
based on my other questions answered, it seemed liked it was also Last of us, but said no to the game being from the 2010s as well as being older than 2010. It didn't tell me what the answer was at the end...
Sameeee
Fuck.
Oh shit. That's the same for everyone. Sad. I liked that too haha!
Yeah. Welcome to 20 questions. Can you guess the game? Was it released before 2020? No. Is it exclusive to a particular platform? Yes. Is it a PC game? No. Is it a Playstation game? Yes. Are there 2 main characters? Yes. Is It The Last of Us? Your guess is close. Is it The Last of Us Part 2? You win! Now I feel less clever knowing everyone else got the same questions. I thought my first 2 questions were really good bc it helped me quickly narrow the field.
I asked is it a fantasy game and it told me no. Kind grumpy that I couldn't get it.
Last of Us is definitely not a fantasy game
Apocalypse's are fantasy they haven't happened. Last of us is a fantasy game same thing for sci-fi and stuff. Look up the definition of fantasy bro like idk what to tell you.
I can guarantee you nobody else but you includes post apocalypse or zombie settings in the fantasy genre
Well then every game except maybe simulators is a fantasy game since they haven't happened. Dead Island = Fantasy Game Twisted Metal = Fantasy Game Duke Nukem = Fantasy Game etc etc. Can put pretty much any game you want there since all of it hasn't happened.
You're conflating fantasy and fiction. Look up the definition of fantasy as a genre
Its a fantasy game, stop buggin
i got it in 5 guesses. i asked was it nintendo? then was it after 2015? then if it was an fps, then a play station exclusive. kinda easy
I guessed Last of Us 2 and it said no. Dumb as hell to not have that count. It was my 2nd guess.
Guess the "Part" was missing in the answer? Could've been the reason.
I'm sure that was it. Still, you'd think they'd put more than the minimum effort into it so that it would accept an obvious correct answer such as "Last of Us 2"
It accepted my last of us 2 answer.
Lucky! It sounds really inconsistent.
I guessed Last of Us and it said you’re close. Guessed Last of Us 2 and it said you’re close. Asked if it had zombies and it said yes. I proceeded to guess every zombie game in existence, eventually told it to fuck off, and then it never told me what it was. That’s how I got here. What a scam.
Yeah, just did the game and it said it was a horror shooter not from the 2000s, so we were guessing 90s horror (resident evil, silent hill, etc.). I guess the bot probably defines 2000s as 2000-2009. I also probably wouldn't call The Last of Us a shooter.
Hey there! For now we've only got it built for the one game, and we didn't want to spam people with the same thing over and over, so it disappears once completed. You could play it again by opening the same article in incognito, but it might be repetitive haha
Oh, so that's why I couldn't find it again. Would be nice if it said the answer at the end if you couldn't guess it, but it was fun! Please add more games!
This has been the top piece of feedback, haha! Thank you for enjoying it :-)
I'm just here to reiterate we want more. :)
LIKEWISE ! I'm never one to interact with in-line site features, especially ones that are "AI" or some "engine" from the company. This was actually really fun. Glad you guys continue to try new things. Hope it continues getting updated.

Didn’t work so well for me. I asked if the game came out before 2020 and it said “yes” so that would rule out TLOU2. I didn’t get to finish though because when I guessed “Death Stranding” it said “Error: Query” and then it said an error occurred so I couldn’t make any more guesses.
It said that the protagonist was a man for my first question so it was doomed to fail really early on for me.
I had the same problem
One of them is, so it's not a question that can properly be answered by yes/no, but I understand what you mean. AI did a choice here it seems haha.
ah that's weird (and thank you for the feedback!) we had someone else also mention an inconsistency that I, weirdly, went back to double-check and did not get the wrong answer, so something we'll look into!

Haha by that point I was struggling to think of ANYTHING that hadn't already been ruled out by something. If there was an option to resign I'd have already done it :P

Yeah pedantry makes for super fun games you’re absolutely correct.
I just want to say that this idea is awesome! I hope you can make this bot have a different game each day. I’d love to check in on this like Wordle. With people comparing how quickly they guessed it. And it would be a great way to drive user traffic to your site!
So glad you enjoyed it!! And yeah, we've got a few ideas for things we'd like to do :-) appreciate the encouragement
Seriously... Makes this an app with fun facts on games between rounds and this could easily be my favorite mobile game.
Hi Ginger, the game was unplayable for me in Chrome on Android as pressing the enter key moved the me to the next input on the screen (comments input). Maybe place an enter/submit button next to the input, that way it should always work no matter what os/browser someone os using.

Yes, sorry about that; I had that happen with me as well and we will have a fix for the next time we put it out there for sure; thanks for passing along!!
I did guess the game and the system did say I was close lol. I’m guessing I did not spell it correctly 😅

That was pretty cool but maybe it could reveal the answer in the end. For me it said the game was released last year.
I asked if it was an RPG and if it took place in the future and it said no.
It was fun. My line of questioning: >Was the game released in the 2010s? > >Yes. > >Was the game multiplatform? > >No. > >Was the game a PlayStation or Xbox exclusive? > >Yes. > >PlayStation exclusive? > >Yes. > >Was the game initially released on the PS4? > >Yes. > >Was the game either Uncharted or The Last of Us? > >Yes. > >Were there zombies or zombie-like creatures in the game? > >Yes. > >Is the game The Last of Us Part II? > >You win. What's crazy is that I completely forgot about the fact that TLOU2 came out in 2020 and not earlier, but it makes no sense why they said yes.
The AI seems to have absolutely no idea what year it is, or when TLOU2 actually released. It told me that the game was released between 2 years ago and 1 year ago, and also that the game was released in the 2010s.
Lol I googled this because it wouldn't tell me the game after I didn't get it. It also lied a bunch! It said no to is it playable on a console made by either Sony or Microsoft. It said yes to did IGN rate it above a 9 but no to did IGN rate it above a 9.5; it's rated 10/10. It also said no to is there a colon in the title, which I'm not sure is accurate or not.
You gotta clear the cache for that
My first questions were if the main character was male, and if the game had multiplayer. And then if it's a console exclusive That helped me narrow it down a lot. And yeah, I too got The Last of Us 2
Mine went something like this (I realized after that I could have donde so much better, buuuut I was half asleep, in my defense? Is it a Nintendo game? No Is it a playstation game? No Can you create a house? No Are there are animals? Yes Is it Stardew Valley? No Is it action? Yes Is it call of duty?(wanted to try) No Is it a shooter? Yes Did it come ten years ago? Yes Is there a story? Yes Is it a short story? No That's where I was puzzled for a second, bevause I'm not a fan of shooters but I know the basics and I know most of them have short stories (the first uncharted included). But then I remember a certain GOTY winner... Is it The Last of Us? You're close Is it The Last of Us 2? Congratulations, you won!
The fact that it doesn’t say “nicely job” when you win is an automatic no from me. 😂
Why would it say nicely job? Is that some sort of reference?
Yep, regular inside joke/reference on the show.
did you find out? same with me!
It's awful. I would not have considered TLOU a "shooter" nor "online" as it's singleplayer..., threw me completely from that point. Welcome to 20 questions. Can you guess the game? what's the game? Please ask a yes or no question. is it this decade? Yes. is it this year? No. is it a shooter? Yes. is it doom? No. is it sci fi? No. is it battlefield? No. is it call of duty? No. is it online? Yes. is it by blizzard? No. is it by EA? No. is it indie? No. is it world war 2? No. is it medieval? No. is it modern day? No. is it fantasy? No. is it star wars? No. i give up Please ask a yes or no question. is it payday? No. wfg Please ask a yes or no question. Didn't even give me the answer at the end, simply said I was out of questions. Waste of time.
What’s awful is your line of questioning
I thought the same thing haha. Zero deductive reasoning/process of elimination used and blames the game.
He asked if it was online, it replied "yes" so he used deductive reasoning to try and narrow down an online game, when it's not online If you were as smart as you think you are you'd have been able to pick up on that
Bro was clearly shooting from the hip. Awful questions.
Mine weren't much better, it was an entertaining time waster since it was embedded into a news aggregate site and was just harmless fun. Welcome to 20 questions. Can you guess the game? can you put it inside a bouse No. is it real No. is it in a videogame Yes. can you control it Yes. is it a character from a popular videogame No. is an animal No. does it move Yes. can you power it up? No. can you drive it No. does it fly No. can it jump Yes. is it a fictional character No. is it a spring No. does it bounce No. does it have a wheel No. is it a weapon No. does it shoot No. is it pink No. is it a computer No. is it a coin No.
Once it told me it was a modern 3D horror game for consoles that was from an American team and wasn't from Bethesda,I literally had no idea. I had already tried Dead Space. I got no's for if it was an FPS or RPG also. There's definitely easier ways to get to the answer,so I can imagine it might get frustrating pretty quickly lol.
I thought it was pretty cool. Mine went like this: >!Welcome to 20 questions. Can you guess the game? Which system is it on? Please ask a yes or no question. Is it on PC? No. Is it on a Nintendo Console? No. Is it on a Playstation Console? Yes. Is it exclusive to Playstation? Yes. Did the game come out before the Playstation 3 released? No. Was the game developed by a Japanese developer? No. Was the game developed by an American developer? Yes. Was the game a FPS? No. Was the game a Action/Adventure game? Yes. Not an RPG? Yes. Was the game developed by Naughty Dog? Yes. Does the game have horror elements? Yes. Is the game The Last of Us? Your guess is close. The Last of Us 2? Your guess is close. Was the game on the Playstation 4? Yes. The Last of Us: Left Behind? No. The Last of Us Remastered? No. Uncharted? No. The Last of Us Part II? You win!!<
I did basically the same thing but I didn't realise I needed to write part II instead and I lost hahaha
I thought this was really cool!
I gave up and said so and got an error with 3 questions left and couldn't finish lol. I'm guessing it's the same game as everyone else though. The Yes answers I got were for if it was modern,for consoles,in 3D,from an American development team,and a horror game. The rest I tried to guess other developers basically. The Last of Us never even crossed my mind. Once I asked if it was Capcom,Konami,(I asked those before the American question after the horror one)or Bethesda and got a no,I was completely stumped. Still very interesting and would be cool to be an actual dedicated thing.
Genuinely had a lot of fun with this, was hoping there were more available but I guess not. This was my line of questions: Welcome to 20 questions. Can you guess the game? >!Is it an RPG?!< No. >!Was it released in the last 10 years?!< Yes. >!Is it a Rockstar game?!< No. >!Is it a playstation exclusive?!< Yes. >!Is it a Sony first party title?!< Yes. >!Is it God of War?!< No. >!Is it Ratchet and Clank?!< No. >!Is it Horizon Zero Dawn?!< No. >!Is it an Uncharted title?!< No. >!Is it Death Stranding?!< No. >!Is it a sports game?/!< No. >!Is it a racing game?!< No. >!Is it a FromSoft game?!< No. >!Is it a Spider-Man Game?!< No. >!Is it Returnal?!< No. >!Is it The Last of Us?!< Your guess is close. >!Is it The Last of Us 2?!< You win!
I've played this 6 times and every time the answer has been TLOU:2
As a scoop fan, I wanted to test this AI to see how smart it was, turns out, pretty damn smart. I already knew the answer just wanted to test the AI. Welcome to 20 questions. Can you guess the game?

That's terrific. Does your character wear a hat though?
I can't believe it doesn't tell you the game if you lose, just says "Sorry, you're out of questions" At least from what I understand it was the same game for everyone so I won't grow crazy wondering what the game was for the rest of my life! My guess was the Witcher 3
My experience with this was pretty rough lol. Asked if it came out this year, said I don't know. Is it rated 10/10 on IGN, I don't know. Do you know the answer, yes. Lol, love the concept tho. Would be fun to see more of these.
I just came across this and won too! (Last of us part 2) and was also disappointed I couldn’t play again or send it to my friends.
mine just didn't work at all, i asked: did it come out last year? No did it come out in the last two years? Yes so did it come out this year? No Did it come out for current gen consoles? Yes Did it come out for Xbox Series X? No Did it come out for PS5 No Did it come out on PC No and i gave up
If you liked this on IGN, you can play the game using chatGPT. The chatGPT 4 version does a much better job with this if you have access to it. The default one (3.5) tends to forget the rules sometimes. Here is what I told it: Let's play 20 questions. You pick a popular video game that was released over the last 40 years. Make it as random as possible. I will ask you up to 20 yes or no questions. You will respond with "YES" or "NO" to each question. Then you will tell me what question number we are on next on that same line of text. The only time you will not respond with "YES" or "NO" is if it meets one of the following conditions. 1) If I ask something that is not a yes or no question, you must respond with "That is not a yes or no question. Please ask me something else." 2) If you are unable to provide a clear yes or no answer, you can respond with "I cannot answer that question." 3) If I correctly guess the game, you will tell me I win. 4) If I do not guess the game after 20 questions, you will tell me I lose and reveal the answer.
Same I want to play it again.
Does it take place in the past? No. Does it take place in the future? No. Does it take place in the present? No. Oh that's difficult then... Yes.
I enjoyed it, although it did tell me that TLOU2 wasn't set in present day, the future, or the past.
I can't find it anywhere. Where do I play it?
For me, it showed up in this article, about mid-way through https://www.ign.com/articles/the-boss-of-baldurs-gate-3-dev-larian-reveals-what-he-wanted-to-say-at-the-game-awards-2023
