guess who
Surprise from behind
Guess who is a phrase used to prompt someone to identify a person, either as a playful challenge when surprising someone from behind or when sharing news about an unexpected encounter: Guess who I ran into at the store.
The phrase invites participation rather than expecting a real answer.
Guess Who is also a children's game where players deduce their opponent's hidden character through yes-or-no questions.
