Description

As the name suggests, Mastermind is based on the famous board game of the same name. The player's goal is to guess the random secret code ín ten tries. To find the code, the player places pins with different colors or symbols on the board. Once the row has been filled, the game tells him how many pins have the correct symbol or color and are in the correct place. It won't however tell the player exactly which pins are correct, making it a game of trial and error.

The game features four difficulty levels starting on easy with a secret code which consists of four colors/symbols and can only contain one of the seven available colors to master with five colors/symbols, nine different colors and the increased challenge that the colors/symbols can be contained more than once in the secret combination.
