Hi! This is my own daily game that I made recently. You are SheepleDog and we need to guide the herd back together.
That means you are trying to guess the most popular wrong answers to each question. The more popular your wrong answers are, the more sheep you collect. 5 questions and 3 answers each. The actual right answer scatters your flock for that question. So avoid that.
Without real players populating the questions, it wasn’t perfectly straightforward to figure out how to rank the wrong answers. So that part, and the initial bell-curve fitting of your final score are simulated with the help of an LLM tool, for now. It’s not very desirable, but I’m hoping that won’t last long as the game gets more players and bonus questions get answered to generate real human data.
I hope this is interesting to you. I think arriving at the correct answer, and avoiding it while thinking about how people may get the question wrong is enjoyable as a daily game.
Tried it out, it’s a cool game I might play when I have some downtime on and off. I always enjoy the “guess the most common answer” games
As a follow up critique, I would like to ask that the the answer “horse” to the question “Which chess piece can jump over other pieces?” on the 28th October should be considered incorrect. I answered horse thinking it wouldn’t be correct, as that’s not what the piece is called, but the game went and said nuh uh :/
Right. I see where that’s coming from. That is a really good answer for this game. It is an oversight by me.
First few days of the game had very suboptimal simulation/question data. The best move by me would be to just remove those from the archive. Maybe I’ll do that after a couple more days.
I should say again, thats a very clever guess. You beat me lol.
Ay all good man. It’s been going for what, a week? It’s expected that there be some ironing. It’s also the smallest nitpick imaginable lol
Interesting. For stuff like “what’s the #1 in category?” it’s really “what’s the #2?”, because that’s what people probably guessed a lot of.
How fuzzy is the matching? Like if the answer is Chocolate Chip, how close do I need to be to get credit?
Typos should be fine most of the time, and acronyms and some synonyms should also work. But I’m not super confident about it so I made non-scoring answers not use up a guess in case I fail in fuzzy matching or having a valid answer not show up in the simulated answers.
Honestly you can go to town if you’re not saying the correct answer. The timer should be enough to try out a bunch of stuff because I doubled it at some point after seeing my girlfriend struggle typing things out lol.
This is hilarious, “What is the most stolen food in the world?” had an answer “Baby formula”
Nice!
Fun game. Kinda reminds me of a solo variation of Family Feud. Keep up the good work.

That’s a super cool game and I wanted to give you a tip. I have wero installed on my phone and I’ve used it before, bit when I clicked on that option, it only gave me a list of Dutch banks, and no chance to select another.
Oh. I’m not sure what’s going on with the tip site. But it’s the thought that counts and it really means a lot! Thank you so much. I’m glad you enjoyed!
This was fun!

That is very nice. #4 Top score of all time out of 590. Congrats!
Heck yeah! I think those categories were particularly good for me because my scores on the other days have not been as good haha
That was fun but I accidentally killed my own score because I assumed “whole flock” meant I got them all and I closed the gate. Didn’t realize there were still more, I thought I had the “whole flock”.
Ah I got this from a friend as well so it’s definitely valid. Maybe I should rename that one. I’ll think about a good fix.
Thank you for voicing that!
This is awesome, great work. Super fun
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
LOVE this.
yay!
