Play Guess Who: Wot

How to play Wot

You need two players. Each one secretly picks one of the 13 characters on the board. Taking turns, you ask yes-or-no questions and rule out the characters that don't match the answer, until only one is left. You get 60 seconds per turn to ask and eliminate faces from the board. The first player to guess their rival's secret character wins the game.

Good questions to open with

The best questions split the board roughly in half. On a movies board, try questions like: "Do they appear in an action movie?", "Are they the villain of the story?" or "Is the movie older than the year 2000?". Start with broad traits (color, outfit, role) and save the specific details for the end.

Why this board is fun

With 13 characters, Wot has just the right size for several games in a row without getting repetitive. A movie-buff showdown, 60 seconds per turn. You can create a private room and share the code with a friend, or open a public room and play against anyone online. And if you want your own version, you can build a similar board by uploading your own images in minutes.
