📖 How to Play
Tap a color from the palette to fill the selected peg slot, then press CHECK to submit your guess. A black peg means the right color in the right position; a white peg means the right color in the wrong position. Crack the code before you run out of guesses!

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
▶How does the feedback work in Mastermind?
After each guess you get small pegs as feedback. A dark peg means one of your colors is exactly right — correct color AND correct position. A light peg means a correct color is in the wrong position. No peg means that color is not in the secret code at all.
▶Can colors repeat in the secret code?
Yes! The secret code can contain the same color more than once. For example, Red, Red, Blue, Green is a valid code. This makes Mastermind tricky — watch the feedback carefully to avoid over-counting repeated colors.
▶What is the best opening strategy for Mastermind?
Start with a guess that uses four different colors to maximize information. Then use the black and white peg counts to eliminate possibilities. On Medium and Hard, try to cover as many colors as possible in your first two guesses before committing to a theory.
