This set is in a good vintage condition with normal traces of use and age-related traces of wear. This mainly concerns the box.

Word mastermind is another variation of the classic version of Mastermind, where the code consists of the four letters of an existing word. The amount of possible codes is higher due to the fact that there are more possible code pawns (letters instead of colors) than with the classic version. When breaking the code, the code breaker uses both logical thinking and his / her vocabulary.
At first glance, the game of Lingo resembles word mastermind, but solving has been made much easier by not only indicating the numbers of correct letters, but also which ones they are.
