Player Comments on The Monty Hall Problem

I already knew how this works, but it was still cool. Where are all my goats and cars I just won?

4/8

Meh, I liked it. I mean, it sure as hell wasn't any 8 goals 28 rolls, but it was an actual game that used actual coding, so that makes it better than 99% of the other short games by default. ^_^

Pretty fun i had a score of 4 but pretty interesting concept

Obviously not really a story, but an interesting medium to show a logic puzzle in

What is this. What even is this?

Already know the solution but somehow got screwed over 5/6 times when choosing the correct solution. :S

Just bored look at me score.

while it does show the monty hall problem fairly well. It was still very boring.

I won on first try :)

It's not really fun, but it is perfectly functional.

Cool. But I don't think a story game is the best example of the Monty hall problem.

It's pretty cool the difference in the probabilities. Without changing, it was 1/11. Changing caused the probability to skyrocket to 7/11 (not the gas station.) Anyway this is a pretty cool experiment.

Well it was ok..i think

Short and sweet. Not bad.

As interesting as this is, this doesn't classify as a storygame in my eyes. In fact, it doesn't even count as a "story" to be honest. But thanks for the interesting facts. I feel smarter-er already.

Ah, I remember our statistics teacher trolling us with this problem.

Pretty impressive how you manage to code this into a gamebook, although for those who aren't particularly enamored with mathematical logic puzzles, it might be a bit lacking in entertainment value.

(spoiler)
That being said, the actual chance of winning is not 50/50 whether you switch or not. One choice is significantly better than the other, assuming that all choices are randomly generated. I'll leave it at that.

It is educational but...it is not a gamebook...

It could have been better.

Yea. I sucked lol!

"SPOILER ALERT" (at least I think its a spoiler)

It doesnt matter if you switch you will still have a 50/50 chance after he shows you one of the doors. Thats what I think, really cool! learned something new thanks!

This is really clever but I think I'd have liked the game better if you let the player play the game a few times first and then explained the maths behind it to see if people can figure it out by themselves.

Interesting.

Would've been better had I not of known about this beforehand. XD Still, fun little exercise.5/8

Hmmm...looks like i won a car...as a game its great. Short. 3/8

WARNING THIS IS A SPOILER DO NOT READ IF YOU WILL BE BUTTHURT! I know this problem well. Its basic statistics. 3 doors 2 wrong 1 right. You have a 33% chance of choosing right one. When he knocks off WRONG door you have a 66% chance of having the wrong door and a 33% chance that you have the right one. 66% is greater than your current 33% and you will win more often if you change your answer.

OK

I think it would have been better had it actually set up a new problem each time. The two goats and car were behind the same doors everytime, which kind of ruined it imo.

Still an interesting problem though. Gave it 4/8.

Not very original. Could be a good teaching tool I guess.

WITCHCRAFT! My brain dislikes this. Fun concept and neat presentation. Pictures may have been worth throwing in (I think I woulda upped my review from 4 to 5), but for what it is... not really needed.

It's an interesting problem

ok

It's a pretty uninteresting concept, and you didn't even explain why it's better to switch. Unfortunately, this problem isn't very suitable for a game.

Pretty good for what it is, but not a very captivating subject. Still, I thought you did very well presenting what you intended, so I give it 5/8.
