What is Who Am I??
Who Am I? is the sticky-note-on-the-forehead game without the sticky note. The guesser holds the phone against their forehead (or hands it to the group); everyone else sees the secret — a giraffe, a firefighter, a pineapple, Cleopatra — and answers only yes or no while the guesser narrows it down.
Choose a category, a time limit and optional player names for score-keeping; a question counter and timer keep turns snappy. The Kids category uses simple, familiar secrets so young children can join in.
