We've been given early access to the Gaming Entertainment Online Fact Finder, or GEOFF for short.

This intelligent personal assistant / knowledge navigator from a startup that, for the time being at least, would like to remain anonymous, is specifically geared towards finding out lots of information about mobile games.

Our early tests with it have been astonishing to say the least.

We'll be trying it out over the course of the next few months, but this week James tried out its ability to calculate in-game statistics for Angry Birds, and is surprised to learn that GEOFF even has the capacity to ask questions and learn - in this instance, about piracy and Monument Valley.
