Awesome brain game

Classic mind game still enjoyable after over thirty years

Crashes

One of the worst apps I ever downloaded. Can’t even get app to open to play it. Put it in the trash can.

Nice User Interface

Nice UI, however the programming is incorrect. I have witnessed times were I have the right color but in the wrong place and I don’t get a white peg for it. This usually happens when the color is present in another location as well.

Response from developer

Hi Manikese! If you have a screenshot of this, please send it to dailycodechallenge@gmail.com. Thousands of games have been played and I have yet to see this. I would be very interested to see this bug. Thanks for complement on the UI 😁 - Craig

Bloody addictive!

This is a what the hell its 3am already kind of game. It’s like you can feel your powers of logic strengthening as you play.
