Ando Kensaku is a character in the Wii video game And-Kensaku. He is a white robot with a head that is in the shape of a television, an orange antenna at the top of his head, and a small body with arms and legs. His face is a screen that can open up like a drawer to store items in his head. The antenna can change shape at times to match his emotions (like becoming an explanation mark when excited, or a question mark when asking a question). He is the only character that is voiced in game.
In the game Ando Kensaku will teach the player the basics of how search engines such as Google work, the terminology of search engines, and which words are trendy. He can also be seen throughout the mini games as an announcer of new rounds starting and other events in the game being played. In "Wobby Kensaku Showdown" he can be seen as the one holding up the birdhouses and in "Climbing! Kensaku Stairs" he is the one climbing the stairs. He can also make comments on the search terms in some mini games before the next round starts, this happens in "Which is more" and "Trend Quiz With Graphs".
Outside of the mini games he appears in the recommendations section of the single player and multiplayer menus, where Ando Kensaku recommends games to play based on information the player puts in, such as wanting a short mini game to play. Notably, he is seen wearing a mustache in this appearance. He also gives a daily search term of the day once a day after the player exits to the main menu after playing a game. There are only terms for a single year so after that time frame his dialogue would repeat that next year.
Ando Kensaku hosts the games "Kensaku! Panel 9" and "Bakudan Survival".
