What character are you thinking of?

Ask it questions about a character and it'll try to guess what character you're thinking of. It's scarily accurate, it's guessed several random characters in video games I play.

Incredibly accurate!

I first tried an easy one (Voldemort from Harry Potter). Then I tried a more difficult one (Kite from .Hack). I've even tried Durkon from Order of the Stick. How is that for a difficult one?

Then, I wanted to test it out really well. I didn't even know the face of the person I was testing (you never see it in-game. Only on coverart). Philip from my favorite game. Penumbra! I was so surprised when it got that right! However, I managed to beat it when I went more specific by saying Tuurngait in the game. However, when I saw the ending characters it was going to choose from, it was on the list (so I probably gave some poor answers)

Pretty dang accurate, and I've found it more difficult to find a character it DOESN'T know.

It knows Warhammer 40k, but doesn't know Inquisitor Adrastia from Retribution. Which was who I was thinking of.

"Congratulations, you have defeated me."

I started with Belkar to see if this thing was worth my time.

Haha this is great! I could play this all day. Thanks for sharing!

Just today, my family decided to nickname me Gumby.

I actually wanted that 20 Q game to get the character right, but it came up
with Shrek. Can anyone make it guess Gumby?

Dark Fury Dragon · Jun 05, 2011 3:38 AM

I just did! Wasn't very hard really.

How on earth...? I probably just know nothing about Gumby.

Clock-la · Jun 05, 2011 10:39 AM

Wow its AMAZIng but I beat it with Rondo From Eternal Sonata ^_^

JazzJackrabbit · Jun 05, 2011 11:08 AM

He's good. He guessed 3 out of 4 correctly within the limit. Jazz Jackrabbit, Bucky O'Hare, and Peppy Hare. He failed on Jaxxon from the Starwars universe.
Then I tried Trigger Happy, but his final guess was Spaz Jackrabbit, which isn't too far off.

Beginner mode: Bayonetta (pwned in 12 questions)
Easy Mode: Rainbow Dash (17 questions win)
Medium mode: Laharl (Failed at 20 question mark, got it in 25)
Hard Mode: Kai (Failed at 20 question mark, got it in 30)
Hardcore Mode: Detritus (Failed at 20 question mark, got it in 30)
Insanity Mode: Nevare Burvelle (Failed at 20 question mark, got it in 30)

Just to note, I pressed "No" fourteen times in a row for Detritus. And then it gave me the Kool-Aid man at 20.

prince-Dari · Jun 05, 2011 2:00 PM

I'm impressed, especially considering that Derpy isn't actually one of the characters (yet).

Latias fan · Jun 05, 2011 2:16 PM

Its telling me to install some program so i can play. Yea forget this.

Clock-la · Jun 05, 2011 3:37 PM

One of Arials Sisters

The other mother

EDIT:never mind i was looking at the wrong thing. I'm playing it now.

EDIT 2:After about 22 questions it guessed the charcter i was think of. Mrs.Brisby from the secret of nimh this thing is good.

Apoc · Jun 05, 2011 4:34 PM

I tried Inquisitor Adrastia from Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War 2: Retribution again and he still didn't get it. But he got Duke Nukem.

Cynder7 · Jun 05, 2011 5:02 PM

HOLY EFFING CARP!
That's insane! Pure awesomeness!

Thanks. Another game I'm now addicted to!:-P

Neotyguy40 · Jun 05, 2011 8:35 PM

I want to try something tricky... So I picked the genie himself.

He wasn't easily tricked though XD

ontels · Jun 05, 2011 9:06 PM

First guy I tried was zasalamel from soul caliber and he didn't get him, then Rincewind and he surprisingly didn't get him ether (maybe because I put no for "can your character use magic...) then he finally got Sonic. tongue

Swaffy · Jun 06, 2011 1:28 AM

Somebody do Cortana from the Halo series. I'll try for ... Sparx.

[Edit] At first guess, he came up with some scary skull thing with fire around
it. Then he finally came up with Sparx. I honestly don't get how Sparx is
related to a skull with fire around it. Oh, and I tried Cortana and it was too
easy for him to guess. Hmm ... I'll try Toothless.

I tried clicking random buttons. It came up with Undecided Optimist.
I'm done for now.

Cynder7 · Jun 06, 2011 9:03 AM

Now I'm trying Sheila..He hasn't found her and I'm on the second game therefor he's had like 6 tries or something..I think it's more than 6.. :3
