The Mastermind
★ "Great game.Love this game! And you will find there is a systematic approach to finding the numbers faster. Won't say how, but the more you play it, the easier it is to find shortcuts to getting the correct line of numbers. Please make this game have real-time online multiplayer."

This is a brain-stimulating but relaxing game of pattern-recognition and basic logic application. It is based on the classic game "Mastermind", a.k.a. "Code-Breaker". It involves cracking a four (or five) digit code as fast as possible. The UI is meant to be simple, convenient and intuitive for devices of all sizes.
The game requires fast and deep analytical thinking, so those who like playing blitz chess games would love this one.
In the Help menu you can find an in-depth Tutorial, explaining everything from the basic rules to the advanced logic behind the game.
Game rules:Players take turn in guessing the secret code of their opponent. Each time a player makes a guess, he receives information about his success. The information is given in the form of two numbers, one red and one blue.
The RED number means the amount of digits you have guessed right, but which are in a DIFFERENT POSITION in the secret code you are trying to guess.
The BLUE number means the amount of digits you have guessed right and which are in the CORRECT POSITION in the secret code you are trying to guess.
Considering this information limits the possibilities with each turn. In Player v.s. Player mode, players start with a time limit and gain bonus seconds with each turn. Whoever manages to figure out the other players' secret code first
- wins.
The secret code could not contain 0 (zero), so the 0 could be used as a "blank" character. There could also be no repeated digits (like 1337).
In the new "Get Rated" mode your goal is to try and break a random secret code as fast and with as few attempts as possible. The average scores of your last 10 games are your Fast Thinker (average time) and Deep Thinker (average attempts) ratings, which you could share and compare with your friends. The right column shows the number of possible combinations left, if you fully and correctly consider the feedback from all your attempts so far.
Please do NOT use the rating system to report any problems or to submit ideas and requests, since there is no way for me to contact you for any further information. Instead, please use the provided contact e-mail. Thanks!
Development support:This app is developed solely by me in my free time. I really like developing Android apps and I'm trying to make it a full time job. If you like my work and want to support my efforts
- please give a 5 star rating and share it with your friends! You can also buy me a beer by using the in-app Donate option! Thanks!
Contact: [email protected] me on Google+, I'll discuss ideas for future features there!

Hey Developer, good job A game which I loved a lot, still it's work on coding I myself am a small scale developer. Do some testing and debugging the bugs are small but imapct full. Fix them and this will the perfect game for maths geeks and computer nerds like me. Good Luck.😊
Game is nice but quitting options doesn't let u quit t game. Me and Android both got correct ans but also the game was running. Yes option in the quit menu also not working. Everytime i have to clear the game data frm settings. Happened 6 times. Now can't tolerate. Also no relation of matrix in t app, its a simple mind training game. Uninstall.
Awesome game to exercise your brain however the game gets hung up and won't go back to the main menu. I have to force stop the game and start over whenever I finish a game. Will definitely rate 5 stars once bug is fixed.
After completion of one game can't go to main menu have to exit the game and start over again. And make it a bit hard, it's way too easy. Pls fix it ASAP
Hi. I loved this game but there exist a bug which doesn't allow the app to move back to main menu once the puzzle is solved. Please solve the issue else there doesn't exist any reason why this app shouldn't be rated as 5 stars
Stuck after a game, hv to restart the game each match..
This is a really good Concept to make a game on. It doesn't have that polished look but the gameplay is nice. :)
This is a fun game. However the previously mentioned problem is crippling. Plus the game has told me I was wrong when I had the right answer. I have a screen shot of it if the programmers would like to see.
Great thinking game if you mom say all u do is play games on your phone. show her this game.
Best mind game, great concept, online multiplayer feature would be a good thing to have if possible.. Plus i thought buying beer was just a joke :)
Application needs to be restarted to start a new game. The tick mark button to confirm exiting the current finished game does nothing. And so the game has to be restarted. Otherwise it's a great game
I couldn't play any levels and half of the options I wasn't able to click because they would move off the screen.
When I press back button or try to quit it does not happen
Please bring a online multiplayer game. I love this game but boring when playing only with Android
Its realy brain storming game. But plz fix the bug. As everyone mentioned, each time i hv to restart d game after getting perfect match. The game is not even moving back to the main menu.plz plz fix it. Otherwise it deserves 5 *****
Great game, but lot of bugs . I'm not able to leave in mid of the game
good presentation....but i thought i signed up for a game. I showed this to my frnd circle n others.Noone knows why specific fouss is on graphics n not on game
This is a buggy game but the concept is powerful. Buggy in the sense that popup menu of 'yes' or 'no' or 'play again' on clicking back button is not working!!
Game can't main menu after completing or not complete one round
Good game but it will be great if there is online multiplayer challenges
Everything is going well just a problem that in offline system it does not go to previous page. Plz fix it.
cant get back to the main menu. . after when game finished
Pls... Pls... Pls... fix the bug, once I played the game, I unable to go back menu. I love matrix movie very much and luckily, this game is also on that theme. I hope the makers of the game can easily fix it. Waiting for the next update.
Can improve by adding zero and multiple numbers
I request to develop the Bluetooth option in multiplayer as soon as possible
It's addictive and awesome, lags during exit
Please download and learn this trick to be able to have a good handling for your guessing mechanism in the mind
Love it! It's challenging and engaging. O
