Remember Mastermind™ good old time ? The pride of breaking the code with a mix of cleverness and logic ?

Code Guess™ is the next generation of code-breaking game, with a very smooth gameplay, nice retina graphics, and full of mind-breaking innovations.

The written reviews worldwide are all excellent with a 4.65 stars average.

Why such a popularity ? Because Code Guess is clearly outstanding thanks to its unique feature set:

STUNNING RETINA GRAPHICS:
- Marvelous Ludovic Avots retina graphics

EXCELLENT GAMEPLAY:
- Real peg feeling: each displayed peg can be taken to compose the new guess, and be permuted easily as a real peg.
- The Trashcan, an exclusive feature allowing to dim all the pegs of a given color to ease the code solving.
- The indication of the remaining number of solutions, which trigger reflexion when only one solution is left.

ENDLESS GAMES:
- The Classic Mode: start your play from an empty board.
- The exclusive Quiz Mode, with an infinite number of plays and 3 different levels of difficulty. From the automatically generated guesses, only one solution is remaining: will you be quick enough to discover it ?
- The 2-Players Code Fight standard mode: The Code Setter sets the code, then the Code Breaker try to discover it.
- The 2-Players Code Fight expert mode: In this exclusive game, the Code Setter does not set the code, but progressively defines it by selecting the answer of each guess among the possible ones: no luck here - only brain power will allow the Code Breaker to find the final remaining code.

CLEVER HELP:
- The Help, an exclusive contextual help which depends of your guess:
* If your guess contains less than 4 pegs, it will highlight one or more previous answers and hint you that based on these answers, an highlighted color shall be added or removed, or point you an issue meaning that this partial guess color set is not possible.
* If your guess contains 4 pegs, then it will check the matching of this guess with the previous answers.
- The Teacher, an exclusive gameplay analysis tool showing the optimal guesses and the solution set partitions.

And many other nice features:
- English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Chinese, Arabic, Hebrew, Hungarian(80%)
- 6 input colors (Code Guess)
- Geometric pegs for color-blind (new !)
- Nice music from Jean-Charles Acquaviva
- Game Center with challenges and world ranking. Moreover, each of the 5 players account can be associated with its dedicated Game Center account.
- A Zen Mode to play quietly.

Do not wait: this game is the best way to exercise your mind in a Zen or Challenging mode !

Pros and cons of Code Guess Mastermind app for iPhone and iPad

Code Guess Mastermind app good for

Just like mastermind!! The best game to pass time lying in bed:)

Ive played lots of board games but this one is the one that helps pass the time... Good job:D

me rocky shot for rockel i love this game it is my best app on my ipod lol

Better than the mastermind I remember because it has 6 instead of4 colors

Very nice graphics and easy play but gotta jump to 5,6 or 7 lanes!

Super game. I remember original MasterMaind. Now you can play alone and you dont need a box of pegs. You put some of them into trash to help you And there still is enough to get you through the next guessing. 10 stars on my scale.

Some bad moments

Not great. Kona’s Crate is the best game out there. Try it free, we gotta get these guys to create more games.

1 star for wasting my time asking for a review regularly. Theres your review!

This game has everything you need to play Mastermind. Simple, intuitive interface. For the developer: It would be nice if the timer didnt start until you hit the first "reveal" button rather than the moment you place the first color marker but thats a nitpick. Also, after playing a few hundred games it gets hard to be in your own top 30 - it would be nice to have your score as a percentile, as in "you score in the top 5%" even though you might have taken 45 seconds for a solution.

A solid implementation of the "MasterMind" game I grew up with. Could use some minor improvements/features. How hard could it be to add an option for more colors and more than 4 pegs? You should also be allowed to guess with less then 4 pegs, obviously you would have to guess again, but this can give you some valuable information. A tutorial for beginners with code guessing hints would also be useful.

Just like the game I played in gifted class, this is a nice way to exercise the mind. Id like the option of solving in more tries, say 10? And maybe less to make it more challenging. Also, more peg colors could be added at higher levels for even more of a challenge. Overall, great game!

Beautiful rendition of the famous game of deduction. Great bug-free gameplay. A perfect way to pass the time and still get a mental workout. Kudos! and thank you!
