### 4/5 — Gess code

*2021-08-15, version 1.75*

It is hard and annoying to have to click on the circle to chose colour but other then that great

### 4/5 — Not bad

*2020-01-30*

I'd like it to rotate.  It's vertically fixed and that's annoying.  Also, traditionally, the old mastermind/guess the color games allowed multiple pegs of one color.  It was more challenging that way.  Still, pretty fun and I like being able to leave blanks.  Nice.

### 4/5 — GuessCode

*2019-11-28, version 1.75*

Excellent graphics! I like how you can select alphabets to be on the colours.

### 3/5 — Waaaaaay too many ads

*2017-12-03, version 1.75*

The game is great - there's an advert every time you go back in to play it though

### 4/5 — Great!

*2016-12-28, version 1.70*

Great logic puzzle, could do with showing clearer which is correct colour correct place VS correct colour wrong place.

### 3/5 — Love this game!

*2016-05-19*

It would be nice to be able to select which ball to chose the color instead of being forced to work from left to right.

### 4/5 — Pretty good game, although somewhat simple

*2016-04-12*

Kind of wish it had more options but the game works well and is fun to play.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2015-11-08*

I stumbled across this game and didn't really know what it was when I downloaded it. Then I realized it was just like the old game of Mastermind I played when 
I was younger, but with more options to customize for skill level. I play it all the time now. Great way to exercise the brain and increase the difficulty level as my skill improves.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2015-09-27, version 1.60*

Always loved playing this game. Happy it's an app😄

### 4/5 — Great App

*2015-06-24, version 1.65*

This is a very good app for beginners, but after a will you would want to upgrade a bit. Other then that nice little app and on the plus side I haven't got any bugs.

### 3/5 — All right

*2015-06-21, version 1.65*

OK. Not hard enough.

### 4/5 — Entertaining

*2015-06-11, version 1.65*

Fun playing

### 5/5 — Great game

*2015-01-11, version 1.65*

I have fond memories of the original game and this brings them all flooding back. Lovely simple game with 3 levels, great for passing the time!

### 5/5 — Fun

*2015-01-01, version 1.65*

Challenging game and much easier than fiddling with little plastic pegs in the original game of which I had fond memories.

### 5/5 — Fun & addictive

*2014-12-17, version 1.65*

Love this app! Great way to help pass time on a plane. Harder than it seems, so it is always fun.

### 5/5 — Great

*2014-12-02, version 1.65*

It is like the game Mastermind which I used to play back in the late 70's.   Very good logic game!

### 1/5 — Seems like a fun game....

*2016-04-02*

But when I play it, the "hints" are all wrong. It'd say I have a color in the right place but when I put in that same place, the hint says it's wrong.

### 1/5 — Bogus

*2015-07-15, version 1.65*

This game is bad, it is contradictory as well, I put yellow, orange and red in one row and it said that yellow was in the correct spot, then when I put yellow on the same spot again, it said it was wrong. Fun game in general, just not this app.

### 1/5 — Stupid Game.

*2015-06-23, version 1.65*

Even in the easiest mode, it's horrible. You'd virtually have a better chance winning Lotto, and you know how hard that is to win. No thank you.

### 1/5 — Hmmm

*2014-12-28, version 1.65*

Inconsistent clues provide surprises and frustration. I can state the issues but the feedback text area is limited. This ap works like the others. Seems like they must have copied the programming from each other. The only thing different here or there is appearance and minor features.

### 1/5 — Stupid games

*2013-07-16, version 1.16*

It doesn't tell you which peg belongs to the color and it moves around.

### 1/5 — Bugged

*2011-12-06, version 1.10*

I have all yellow and it show me one white peg ...

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2014-05-31, version 1.65*

Love the idea but on the first game the computer gave an error which distorted the result  and made the game pointless.

### 2/5 — マスターマインド

*2013-06-07, version 1.16*

古典的ゲームで、シンプル。
面白い。オススメです！

### 2/5 — Easy

*2012-12-30, version 1.16*

I won on first time on hard

### 2/5 — Sometimes annoying

*2012-06-26, version 1.16*

I like the game but sometimes it's to hard!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Engrossing

*2023-06-27, version 1.75*

The game is so interesting even after 10 years and a virtual challenge every time you play.

### 5/5 — Very good

*2023-04-23, version 1.75*

It is the real iq tester

### 5/5 — Alexander

*2021-07-21, version 1.75*

Easy to understad. Good interface

### 5/5 — Guess the Code

*2020-01-13, version 1.75*

Great!

### 5/5 — Guess the code

*2019-02-09, version 1.75*

Vraiment très bien. Intéressant. Un jeu qui fait réfléchir!

### 5/5 — Digital twist on classic Mastermind

*2018-12-15*

Works just like the classic board game but with an AI opponent. That plus a few new features like settings for the number of pegs and whether or not repeats or blanks are allowed make this a perfect adaptation. I use it to teach logical reasoning.

### 5/5 — AWESOME

*2018-09-09, version 1.75*

I love this game I play it with my dad and keeps my brain. Working over summer holidays! :D

### 5/5 — Similar to mastermind

*2016-02-07*

But better.  Options to add letters to colors, choose blanks or not, repeats or not, and 3 levels of play.  And you don't have to worry about "partner" scoring incorrectly!!!  A big bonus imho.  Plus it's free!  

If you like mastermind you should REALLY like this game.  No time constraints, don't have to rush.  Take all the time you want to solve in the fewest moves possible (besides blind luck).  

Ok, so you can't do the dishes while you wait for the other person to take their turn. And share conversation.  But Great for impatient players like me.

### 5/5 — Very Enjoyable

*2016-01-16, version 1.65*

Simple relaxing game. I have enjoyed it for years. Some strategy and easy thinking.

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2015-11-24*

I love puzzles, and this one really tests your logical thinking and deduction skills. I also find the different difficulty levels makes it perfect for me as well as for introducing children to logic in a fun way.
