Welcome to Purple Pawn, covering games played around the world by billions of people every day.
I’m wondering who’s old enough to know about Star Wars but youg enough to still want to play Guess Who?, let alone one with infantilized versions of the characters.
Here’s hoping for zombie and Cthulhu versions of Guess Who? sometime soon.

The “superdeformed” Star Wars brand (Galactic Heroes?) is targetted at a very young audience, under 11 I think. And I know a few young kids who are into it. Or were, at least.
I love the idea of a Star Wars Guess Who, personally, but I’m not so keen on the superdeformed characters, but then I am three or four times the target age. :)
