II. Purpose and Usage
If you've never heard of Mastermind, the easiest way to get familiarized is:
- start the game from the sidebar on the left
- click RULES to read the instructions
- reduce the number of colors to only 2
- choose any color and drag it to the first row until the row is completed
- click the GUESS button
- if your guess was wrong, proceed with step 4 and fill the next row ... and so on
The game gives you an instant feedback by means of the 4 little pins then:
- no pin and gameboard vibrating: your guess was completely wrong
- one or more white pins: color is ok, but wrong positon. (the screenshot shows: your color guess was perfect, but all positons are wrong)
- one or more red pins: color and position are ok. (the screenshot shows that changing the first two elements was a step in the right direction: 2 colors are placed perfectly now, but it still needs some re-arranging)
Your task: Find the correct color sequence with a minimum of guessing!
Enjoy.
