Mastermind
Test your code-cracking prowess with mastermind, the challenging game of logic and deduction. Can you crack the code in 10 moves or less? Can you create a code that can't be cracked? With more than 55 million units sold, Mastermind is a great strategy game, and one of the worlds most popular games ever. It’s easy to learn and fast to play, and with more than 2,000 possible codes, it’s different every time. The codemaker sets a secret code, and then the codebreaker tries to match the code using logic, deduction, and maybe even a little bit of luck. After each move, the codemaker gives clues to the codebreaker. Make the code even more devious by using multiple pegs of the same color or by leaving one or more peg holes empty. With so many possible code combinations, every game is guaranteed to be a brainteaser. For 2 players, ages 8 and up. Includes game console with built-in storage tray and code peg shield, 108 code pegs in 6 colors, 30 key pegs in two colors, and complete instructions.

What the community says about Mastermind
Comprado hace más de un lustro en toys'r'us. No es exactamente el de la ficha de bgg (el mío es de la editorial Cayro :-?), pero bueno, es un clásico. Vendido a Juan Carlos, entrega en mano, en Santander, junto al Formula De y el Genial, por 40€, en mayo 2015. Se fue de mi colección sin uso.
2 J. Un juego sesudo si juegas con la opción de no colocar los aciertos en su posición correcta.
[EN] On of my favourite games in all my childhood. [ES] Uno de los juegos favoritos de toda mi infancia
[b]Nota[/b] Incontables partidas. Juefo de deducción de un codigo de colores. Tiene cierta gracia. No obstante, falta de interés.
