- This is a game for two or more players.
- One of the players chooses a character that is most probably known by other players.
- The character can be either a real person (contemporary or a historical figure) or any fictional character (including non-humans).
- Other players try to find the character by asking "yes/no" questions. The player who finds the character chooses a new character and the game continues.
- The yes/no answers have to be correct and consistent. When the player thinks neither ‘yes’ nor ‘no’ fits for the question, he/she may say ‘not applicable’ rather than giving a misleading
answer.

for good things?
