How to play

1. Start a match to receive your assigned secret character card from the deck.
2. Review your board of suspect portraits to identify shared physical characteristics.
3. Pose a yes-or-no question about a specific attribute on your turn, such as asking if the person wears glasses.
4. Flip down every portrait that conflicts with the opponent's answer to shrink the pool of candidates.
5. Wait for your opponent's query, answer truthfully, and adjust your strategy accordingly.
6. Declare the exact name of the secret character once your deduction singles out the final portrait.

Deduction and elimination strategy

The central mechanic of Guess Who? revolves around binary search logic. Rather than asking about niche details that apply to only one or two characters, strong players formulate inquiries that divide the remaining board into equal halves. Inquiring about common traits like hair color or gender guarantees that half the suspects leave the board on every successful round, steadily shrinking the problem space.

Timing your final accusation is equally important. Calling out a specific name too early carries high risk, because a wrong guess wastes a crucial turn. Patient players wait until logical deduction leaves two or fewer candidates before risking a direct naming attempt.

Tips and strategy

• Target broad features early: Ask questions that eliminate large groups on your opening turns to halve the board quickly.
• Track previous answers: Remember past questions to avoid asking redundant queries that provide zero new eliminations.
• Watch opponent progress: Count how many tiles your opponent has flipped down to gauge when you must take calculated risks.
• Look for compound traits: When only a few candidates remain, search for rare pairings like facial hair combined with headwear to isolate a single face.
• Avoid early wild guesses: Guessing an individual name on turn one has low odds and hands momentum directly to your rival.
