The game is played in turns called Rounds, and the rules define two roles: the Selector and the Guesser.
Start by tossing a coin. The winner is the Selector in the first Round, and the loser is the Guesser. After each Round, the roles are reversed.
To play a Round, the Selector chooses an Answer (a number between 0 and 32). The Selector writes the Answer on a piece of paper, and puts it face-down on the table.
Then the Guesser finds the Answer by repeating as many times as necessary:
Step 1:
The Guesser makes a Guess by announcing a number between 0 and 32.
Step 2:
If the Guess matches the Answer, the Selector says "Correct." The Selector turns over the paper to reveal the Answer, and the Round is over.
Otherwise, the Selector announces whether the Guess is "Too High" or "Too Low." The Selector scores a point and the game reverts to Step 1.
After each Round, the roles are reversed. The Selector becomes the Guesser, the Guesser becomes the Selector, and the game continues.
The first player to score 32 points is the winner.

If any of this is unclear, please ask questions.
Otherwise, I have a question for you.
What is the best strategy for the Guesser?
See if you can figure it out.
