Description

Another inverted Mastermind game. But in this variant, the computer and the player each take a turn as code-maker and breaker. Think of a code of as many colors at the rules say (rules are player determined at the beginning of the game. Have 3 colors, have 101 colors, the player decides). The computer guesses. Inform the computer of how many colors were correct and how many were in the right position. This continues until the computer guesses correctly. Then the player plays to break the computer's chosen code (that follows the same rules). Lowest number of guesses wins.
