Clever ways to solve Mastermind? - Puzzling Stack Exchange $\begingroup$ I wrote a script that bruteforces this algorithm against all solutions (6 color mastermind) and it showed that it found a solution in an average of 5 76 tries and a maximum of 9 tries! So this algorithm actually solves the game on my mastermind board where you get 10 moves to try to win $\endgroup$ –
Mastermind: What should I guess next? That depends This is a completely standard game of Mastermind within the video game There are no special rules Black dots mean "right color, right place" and white dots mean "right color, wrong place" The six colors that Bob already used in guesses are the only colors available This is not a lateral-thinking puzzle I came up with this puzzle myself
mastermind - Guess my number - Puzzling Stack Exchange There is a popular game called Mastermind in which one player guesses another player's secret sequence - it could be a word, some colors, or numbers The guesser says a possible sequence, and they get back the number of correct numbers in the right spot and the number of correct numbers in the wrong spot

Mastermind: Win in two - Puzzling Stack Exchange Bob was very lucky in his last game of Mastermind Alice was the codemaker; Bob was the codebreaker They played with six colors and a length four code Bob's first guess wasn't an immediate win But after Alice scored the first guess, Bob was confident "Then it must be this!" he said of his second guess
Colorblind Mastermind - Puzzling Stack Exchange Immediately, we see that pink is hot: you cannot have three hot pegs and one warm peg in four-peg Mastermind The digits are given in 4533 since we have four pegs; 5888 shows that the 5 is correct 3458 and 7824 rule out 5433 and 5334 (otherwise the 4 would be hot), so 5343 is correct Puzzle 2:
Word Mastermind - Puzzling Stack Exchange but I'm not going to tell you what it is Instead you give me 6 letter words, and I mark them according to the normal rules of Mastermind A 'word' can be garbage if you want, e g PZQABC, or a normal word like BUTTER These get marked as 0r1w and 0r2w respectively The answer word is a real word in this case
