MASTERMIND

by Trey Weldon

The goal of the game is to crack the secret code in 10 attempts or less.

• A black peg is returned for each guess that is a correct color and also in the correct location.
• A white peg is returned for each guess that is a correct color but in the wrong location.
• The order of the pegs does not necessarily correlate with the secret code.
• The secret code may or may not have duplicate colors, so don't rule that out as a possibility.

GETTING STARTED

To make your guess:

1. Select your answer by clicking on a color in the bank. Your selection will be added to the guess row.
2. If you change your mind, select reset guess to clear the entire guess row.
3. Click "Check Guess" to see if your guess is correct.

NEXT STEPS

The next feature I would add is a hint button:

• This button would reveal one of the code elements at random but at the cost of one or two of the player's guesses.
• This would make it easier to guess the code while still maintaining a challenge.
• Another improvement would be animations—either for pegs being added or a celebratory effect when the code is cracked.
