Questle?

What it does

Questle? is a word puzzle game. It is similar to the Wordle type games, with a different challenge being released every day. The basics of the game are quite simple. There is a secret word that the user is trying to identify by asking the model yes or no questions. The user has 20 questions to find the word. Gemini 1.5 flash was used; however, other models might work better. A simple prompt was provided to the model explaining the purpose of the game. Each time a new question was asked, the entire conversation was sent to the model to provide the model context. This game was used as a simple proof of concept in using AI for puzzle-based games and its potential to influence such a large area. Puzzle based games have not changed much and this could possibly open an entire new genre of web-based gaming. As a fresh graduate developer, many insights were learned from using AI in this fashion. Including the strengths and weaknesses of the technology.
