I made this game with a friend. We’re interested in your feedback!
Get wrecked (/s)
⭐ Quizzle 18 2/20
⬛🟩
My second question was “Is it larger than a microwave” and it gave it to me. Sorta BS tbh. Idk if I’d have ever gotten it if it’d answered that question as “no” like it should’ve.
Edit: They updated it to make it more lenient. Imo too lenient.
Nice lol. My questions were:
Is it larger than a Toyota Corolla? 👎
Does it use power? 👍
Is it used in the kitchen? 👍
Does it cook food? 👍
Is it a microwave? 👍
I got it in 19, but only because I asked if it was smaller than a house cat and I thought raccoons were larger.
That was fun. Will it be one new word per day? It makes you think of solid questions to ask!
!I asked if it was primarily used by women (no), and that helped when I figured out it was a household item that could cook food haha. Grill was guess 19, and there are lots of things that can cook food, but most are primarily used by women so that leaves one option. Woo! Just barely got it :D!<
Sexist stereotypes for the win!
Another question asked was if it was before the internet (yes), so relying on stereotypes was more reasonable :) I was using cultural expectations pre-1990s
But just because something existed before the Internet doesn’t mean it doesn’t still exist now. You say you’re using pre-90s expectations, but it’s a modern object still - so why would that help at all?
But sexist stereotypes did exist before the internet (at a much higher rate than today). Using the logic of the past doesn’t mean it’s being sexist of today.
Kind of like if the answer was a job and it was before the internet (so, like pre~1990), it would be reasonable to assume women were not as prominent in a lot of things like they are today.
It (microwave) exists today, but it also was invented when sexist stereotypes were much bigger.
Apparently microwaves aren’t made of metal >:(
Microwaves also don’t contain motors 😂
By any chance did you ask “is it a metal?” Microwaves contain/are made of metal but aren’t a metal.
I asked if it contained at least 30% metal
Thanks for your feedback! We’ve implemented a change to improve the outcome of this kind of question in the future.
I asked that as well
I thought it was broken, because I asked if it was an oven, and it said yes… And then nothing. Just a bit confusing to people who don’t understand AI and fuzzy answers.
Wdym? You’re asking Yes or No questions, the word wasn’t oven, but the word WAS an oven, it was microwave. I think there was just a misunderstanding
I asked if it was an oven, and it said yes,
But sexist stereotypes did exist before the internet (at a much higher rate than today). Using the logic of the past doesn’t mean it’s being sexist of today.
Edit. Responded to the main post instead of a comment. Whoops
I got a no for can you hold it so I was sure it was a normal oven. You can definitely hold a microwave they’re not that big 🤣
I got a yes for can you carry it…
Some responses seemed iffy but I’d play again.
“Something went wrong” when I asked “Can I wear it”. Almost couldn’t continue until it finally went through. Would be good if you could change the question again if there’s an error
Does its prevalence cause existential dread due to consumerism in the western hemisphere? 👎 Does it make chicken rubbery? 👍
I thought I was done when I guessed oven, but there was no clear feedback saying I won. Went to the comments for the actual answer.
So my feedback: fun game! If possible, perhaps add something like “very close” if you guess something that’s almost the answer but not quite. Or oven could have just been wrong, since that wasn’t the actual answer.
Can I wear it? 👎 Is it a microwave? 👍
This is too easy
I asked
“Is it living” 👎
“Is it larger than a microwave?” Wow you got it!
I would consider the answer to that question a no, not a “You solved it!” A microwave is not larger than a microwave.
Edit: They updated the game to make it more lenient after people guessing microwave over didn’t get it. It’s too lenient now though, in my opinion.
Similar but I thought it worked around it another way lol. I asked if it was smaller than a refrigerator (y) and larger than a toaster (y). I arrived at it being an appliance in the kitchen, so I thought it just said yes for the first one and it was a refrigerator. I was sad when it wasn’t lol
It would be great if you could open source it
Y’all gotta put spoiler tags on your shit
I like the concept but some of the answers can be really misleading.
Can be carried, is found in classrooms, not made of plastic, and inexpensive. None of that points towards a microwave for me. Microwaves CAN be carried I guess, but who has microwaves in classrooms? My microwave has plastic cowling on the front, and microwaves are like 70-100 bucks the last time I checked. Some of that is on me for the phrasing (does it contain plastic I guess should have been used, as an example) but it’s a bit odd.
I agree, but I definitely had microwaves in my classrooms (small school, we would eat in classrooms).
