Hmm... I Know!!™

WELCOME TO Hmm... I Know!!™

Hint, hint ... it’s not your average guessing game.

Hmm... I Know!!™ founder Simon has always enjoyed a good guessing game. He played them with his own dad, and when he had a daughter, they started playing “20 Questions” on long car rides. While Simon had always prided himself on his deductive powers, his daughter quickly put him in his place. “I was amazed by how much she knew!” he says with a smile, “As a parent, there’s just no better feeling.” Simon started to think that his favorite game deserved its own app.

When his friend, Chris, approached him with the same idea, they joined forces to create Hmm... I Know!!™ They added avatars, chat capability, and a point system. And they built in a way to check answers and facts online via Wikipedia— without having to leave the app and search the web on their own. “Kids today are so informed, so empowered,” says Simon. “They need play that can keep up.”

Let the guessing—and learning—begin!

TIPS & POINTERS:

You can make the game harder by allowing fewer questions. (Start by going from 20 to 18 - you’ll be surprised what a difference two questions can make!)

Build in a surf session at the end of every game by spending a few quality minutes on Wikipedia and chatting with your game partner about the weirdest facts you find.

Get competitive! Brain games bring out the best in us all, because “win” or “lose”, we learn!
