My children introduced me to this website tonight. Incredible and really enjoyable!

You think of someone famous, real or imaginary, and he'll ask you questions to narrow down the possibilities and then he'll guess. He has a very high success rate. He got my first few... Francis Rossi, Rory Gallagher, Greg Norman and Raquel Welch. I got him with Ronnie Whelan, Brian Downey and Jimmy Barry Murphy (though he did guess Christy Ring!).


If you accidently give the wrong answer to a question, simply press the back arrow (top left on your screen) and he'll ask the same question again. And to play again, click on "Play" on the lantern.


Happy hunting and, enjoy! :)

Pretty good Lex. Aladdin correctly guessed curly-haired Tim Buckley with a picture (Jeff Buckley's father).

Much less surprisingly he guessed me correctly in all the fields of my key achievements - repartee, music, romance, motor-sport, rugby, hurling and best of all, total freedom from Cork-tamination. :)

Rather worryingly, he keeps telling me he loves playing with me - is he from Kerry or somewhere equally strange?
 
Holy God, not only must Aladdin be from Kerry, he must be from Kilgarvan as he correctly guessed Jackie Healy-Rae, that little-known musician, plant-hire operator, publican, dynasty founder, politician, chancer and wearer of truly offensive caps. Their proximity to Cork has effected both Jackie and his cousin Aladdin emotionally.
 
Just spend 30 minutes on that site.Its great fun.
It guessed Gerry Ryan and Brian cowen! Brilliant.
Got to see if it will guess Jack O connor now..:)
 
Had trouble answering a few of the questions, like is your character adorable?
Is you character a stand up comedian?
It came up with Joe Duffy???
Then Gerry Adams!!

Good one Lex!

It took 18 Qs for him to get Dylan Thomas - first guess.

Then it took 31 for him to get Robert Fripp - on his second guess.
 
I love it!! He has correctly guessed Einstein, Descartes, Bear Grylls and Captain Malcolm Reynolds!! Back to try Quark :)
 
Great! he got Grace O'Malley in 20 goes.

If you are getting your kids to play then make sure they log in with their age. Other wise you have to deal with "Whats a porn star?" etc.

Dead right, AJ. When I was asking about Raquel Welch, one of the questions was, "Is she famous for the size of her breasts?"

I wasn't sure, but I answered, "Yes." :confused:
 
I'm suspicious. How many of you who were beaten by the game Googled in a different session to find an answer to one of the questions, e.g. about hair colour?
 
I beat it. Nobody ever guesses Chris Bonnington, the famous mountineer, when you play this game.
