Developers strongly recommend starting interaction with Akinator from the platform selection. There are three options – iOS and Android mobile platforms, and a WEB version that is easy to interact with from a running browser.
The difference between the proposed options is minimal – both standard and additional modes are provided everywhere, statistics are open, and no one forbids even adding new characters (and even those who have never appeared on television). If there were no difficulties with choosing a platform, then the next step is to determine the translation. There are again enough options – English, French, German.
Russian is also in place, and what is most interesting is that the translation here is comprehensive and complete – the authors even took care of the instructions that will tell you about important subtleties and nuances.
If there is complete order here, then it’s time to move on to action.
Character selection
To select the hero that the genie will try to guess within 40 questions, you need to choose thoroughly, preferably, bypassing the established stereotypes that everyone is used to. It is important to be smart and cunning and surprise the virtual genius.
Search for correct answers
Akinator does an excellent job when the participants give the right answers to the questions that appear.
It is important to use the minimum number of “Maybe” or “I don’t know” options and then the game will be reduced by 40-50%. Additionally, you should not specifically answer incorrectly – this will cause even more confusion, and the result will be far from the truth.
Statement of fact
Jin will give you a series of guesses as you progress through the game several times.
Some will turn out to be close in meaning, others far from the truth and practically useless. Therefore, it is important to continue the passage and not stop at the heights reached.
Practical Tips
If the traditional ways of interacting with the platform are already tired, the authors recommend experimenting using the following recommendations:
- Akinator’s appearance is easy to change on mobile platforms. One has only to use pre-prepared templates and the familiar genie will turn into a cowboy or a vampire with bloody fangs digging into the fabric of the universe.
- As practice suggests, it is not worth thinking of completely predictable characters. The genie is able to reach the “Einstein” in 7-8 questions. It’s better to come up with a hero who has long been forgotten by the public. How about a karaoke creator? Or the dancer who became an online meme in early 2010? It will take a long time to deal with such puzzles, but the level of impressions received will definitely make you experiment more!
- Daily Challenges are a sure way to test your erudition skills by helping Jin with answers that lead to victory. The fewer questions it requires to solve, the more serious the final result and the more pleasant the rewards. A separate advantage of such challenges is the chance to gain enough experience to participate in weekly tournaments. There, the stakes are even higher, and defeats are much more offensive.
- If Akinator is interested in rising champions, then it is better to immediately activate the “Children’s Mode”, which will help get rid of ads and immediately weed out results with a rating of 18+.
