5 right, 2 in the right place

the longer the game runs the more you can actually apply logic and not just random guess


Yes! When we used to play with the 4 colored pegs, we would figure it out on average in 6-7 guesses. That's why I widened the field a little bit.

It was a lot of fun (at least, I thought so) but I think they were all ready to hurt me by the time we finished .. https://goccf.com/t/56261 There's the link if you want to check it out. I think your idea is better - there's a much smaller pool of possibilities yet still 'exercises the brain'

I will definitely check it out!

I'm trying to be careful. I remember when we used to play this game and somebody would accidentally give a wrong clue and it would completely throw your calculations out the window!

I hope I don't mess up!
