How do you play the game "21 questions"?

Question

i know it sounds stupid but i don't know how to play

Answer 1

is that the game where you think of something and someone has to ask questions and try to figure out what it is youre thinking?

Answer 2

It's traditionally 20 Questions, and it's played like this:

One person thinks of an item: person, place, thing, etc

A second person begins asking questions to figure out what the item is. Yes or No questions only like "Can it fly?" "Is it green?"

If they can narrow it down and guess correctly before they've asked 20 questions, they "win." If they can't guess it, the first person "wins."

There is also a handheld electronic game called 20Q that allows a person to play 20 Questions with a computer. Supposedly it really works, though I've never tried it. Looks like you can also play it on their website.

Answer 3

Well you Sit or Talk on the phone with someone. They ask you one question and you promise to answer all the questions. Once you given your answer you get to ask them a question. You keep playing until you both asked 21 questions!

Answer 4

I haven't heard of 21 questions...but there is a game of 20 questions.

Here are the directions...though I've never used a gameboard, ever! Just picked categories and asked questions...
