Advantages: Simple, good fun

Disadvantages: No batteries

I am sure everyone can remember the old guess who game with the cards, providing loads of fun trying to figure out which character the other person picked. Well this is the same game brought up to date with a little bit of electronic wizardry.
The game itself is advertised for 6 years and over but to be honest you could probably get away with 4 and above as there really is nothing to it.
This version of Guess Who looks like a laptop when you take it out the box and cleverly folds out so it can stand itself (in the shape of an upturned v).
It requires a couple of AAA batteries and you should bear in mind that these are not supplied if you are giving it as a present.
When each player takes a turn answering they press the green or red buttons to indicate a right or wrong answer and the appropriate sound is made (which causes much hilarity itself).
The game can be made more difficult for older kids (or adults) by limiting the time allowed to answer and as the timer counts down the tension grows leading to lots of fun arguments about whether you answered in time!

There are 6 sheets of multiple characters to keep interest and avoid the same characters coming up time and time again and as well as this, there is a little slider down the side so you can keep score of who is winning.
All in all, a good simple game given a modern twist which should keep the kids (and adults) amused for a while.

Summary: Good fun game for all the family
