Choose who will go first. The first player thinks of a person, place or thing that is related to Thanksgiving. This person will be the "Thanksgiving Thinker."
-
2
Take turns asking the Thanksgiving Thinker "yes" or "no" questions. The goal is to narrow down the options until you have guessed the correct Thanksgiving person, place or thing.

Start with general questions, moving to more specific questions as you receive positive answers. This way you don't waste your questions on a lot of negative answers. The Thanksgiving Thinker can only answer "yes," "no," "I don't know" or "I can't answer that."

4
Ask up to 20 questions each. If you have a large group of people playing, you may want to limit it to 20 questions total instead of 20 questions each.
-
5
Win by guessing the correct Thanksgiving answer. If no one guesses the correct answer within their 20 questions, then the Thanksgiving Thinker wins.
-
6
Begin a new round. The winner of the last round gets to be the Thanksgiving Thinker in the new round.

Tips & Warnings
Another way to play is when someone gets a "Yes" response she gets to keep asking questions until she receives a "No," "I don't know," or "I can't answer that."
