🎯 About the Game

In Master Mind, one player creates a secret combination of coloured pegs. The other player attempts to crack the code in as few turns as possible. After each attempt, small scoring pegs provide clues about which colours and positions are correct.

Simple in concept yet surprisingly challenging, the game revolves around logical thinking, deduction and elimination.
