Bulls Cows is a number guessing game. In some countries is played with colors or words but in this version you must break the code with numbers. At the start of the game your device generates a random number. You must guess that number. Every of your choices gives you Bulls and Cows.

For instance if the random number is 259 and you guessed 329, result is 1 Bull (digit 9) and 1 Cow (digit 2). Try different difficulties and enjoy!
