Basically, this is a web game of 20 questions. I wouldn't usually share stuff like this, but it's pretty good and will surprise you.

I've mostly been throwing historical characters into it. Got Musashi in 28 questions, Oda Nobunaga, Sir Thomas More and the Black Prince in 20. Even managed to get Red Schuhart from Roadside Picnic, so '70s Russian sci-fi isn't obscure enough.

Didn't manage to get Chaucer's Knight though.

Hehe it got my James Hunt in 18 questions. Fantastic!!

Beat it with - Peri from McKillip's "The Changeling Sea". It never even came close.

Got Scout from To Kill A Mockingbird pretty quick though.

Interesting, but it failed to get F. Scott Fitzgerald. How did it not get him?! (Or maybe I went a little too in-depth with the trivia: "well he wouldn't remember the 19th century, but he did technically live in it...")

I decided to test it and through a couple of really niche characters/authors in there. It got Dante Alighieri in about 10 guesses, but it didn't guess Heinrich Kramer after about 30 questions
