Fantastic

A really enjoyable game with a simple but nice interface. Gives the mind a great workout in a fun way. Thank you for this fine contribution.

Works great

Would be a little more challenging if the same color were used more than once in a code.. Still great game

Very nice.

Not flexible

Disappointed that you can only fill in the pegs from left to right. In the real hands on game you can put down pegs in any order. Sometimes I know for sure that pegs 2 & 4 are correct and I want to put them down first and then play around with pegs 1 & 3. This game I have to fill in all the pegs and then go back and remove the ones I want to mull over. I found other apps that let me do this so I will delete this one.

Love it

I grew up playing this game and so happy to find it here and perfect to kill any boring time :) the interface looks like a real one !

Great!!!

Just like you remember it from the 70s!

Mastermind

I agree that this needs a way to place the pegs in any order you want to, not just left to right in order. My biggest peeve is that there is no way to pause or freeze the game if you have to stop or leave it in the middle. If something interrupts you, you lose! I would love this game if those two problems were addressed.

Just like...except

There is no explanation as to the correlation between which tiles match the black or white dots. Its making it more than difficult to play

Great game!

Having fun! Wish a friend could set up and grade pegs like the store game. Otherwise it is great.

A nostalgic addictive game for all!

Everyone remembers all of the popular board games from their childhood but this was always a hidden gem back in the day and it is now revived as a hidden gem for the AppStore. Just like the real thing and is uber addictive. And when youre done playing you dont feel like youve wasted time just playing a game. It keeps your mind fresh; a great code breaking game for the ages. In reference to the reviewer who mentioned the b/w pegs have no correlation to which colored pegs theyre for; I would like to say that you are not suppose to know which pegs theyre referring to. Which is actually the entire point to the game. Youre suppose to break the code! Deduce. Would defeat the entire purpose of the game if it just told you right out you were on the right track.

Played Mastermind in the 80s

Good to see the e-version of one of my all time favourite board puzzle games. I am a little older now an the mind is not as sharp so I find it more challenging than when I was younger but ever since my daughter downloaded it onto my IPAD, I am hooked. A throw back to the old days. Great job to the developers!

Great game

It makes you think things through to get the answer. No problems with app.

Great brain trainer

One very addictive game- great for solo players.

Doesnt keep track of my score or register my rating when I beat friends...

Awesome

I love mastermind.

Bug fixed

Great game, both on the iPad and iPhone, just like the old classic board game.

Save My Stats!

Nice, but it doesnt save my leaderboard stats or achievements!

Great game

I do not play a lot of games, but I do play and love this one!

Great electronic version

I loved the original box version, so finding this electronic version is great. Now when I cant get anyone to play with me, I can use this and challenge my mind.

Mastermind for one

I enjoy this game. It appeals to my love of logic and it is great for a quick thing to do while waiting
