Players alternate asking various yes or no questions to eliminate candidates, such as "Does your person wear glasses?" The player will then eliminate candidates by

Mildly fun for about 2 games. Then, one figures out the optimal sequence of questions and it becomes an exercise in tedium. I don't know any actual kids that played for this fun, but it was ubiquitious in classrooms, presumably because of the supposed educational component, which likely made it a success.

Much more fun by using abstracted clues that read into your opponents judgements of people. Does your person look like they take a long time at the deli counter? Do they not flush the toilet when they pee to save water? Has your person ever seriously considered committing a murder? Otherwise this is a game for literal 4 year olds.

My 8 year old niece cheats when I play this with her. She'll ask extremely detailed questions like, Does your person have a red hat with glasses and white skin while also sporting a mustache and have a 2 car garage with a 2nd mortgage? My response, "You can only ask 1 thing at a time" Her reply, " That's what I did" Staring contest ensues for 30 seconds. "Listen here you little shit!"

Literally a guessing game. There's some fun in making unorthodox, crude descriptions of the people but the game just comes down to guessing enough times until you can come to a conclusion as to who the other person is using. zzzz
