About

The Code Cracker

Features
Read full description

There is a hidden Code. Every guess gives you a clue. How quickly can you crack it? The Code Cracker is a modern logic and deduction game built around a simple challenge: discover the hidden combination using the clues from each guess. CRACK THE CODE Choose Symbols, make your Guess, and use the feedback to narrow the possibilities. Exact Match: right Symbol, right position. Partial Match: right Symbol, wrong position. Nothing else — the rest is deduction. PLAY YOUR WAY Classic at your own pace, from Gentle to Expert. The Daily Cipher: one Code, every player, every day — build a streak and share a spoiler-free result. CHALLENGE FRIENDS Share your Daily and a friend plays the very same Code from a link — no install needed. Or Pass & Play on one device: set a Code for each other and bank the guesses you didn't need. Highest total wins. BUILT FOR CLEAR THINKING Symbols combine shape and colour, so gameplay never depends on colour alone. Full VoiceOver, full Dynamic Type, haptics and sound you can switch off. MASTER THE PATTERN Track win rate, streaks and your solve distribution, mode by mode, and become a better code cracker. No ads. No accounts. No energy meters. The daily puzzle, solo play and Pass & Play are free, forever. One optional Pro unlock adds harder rule sets, more Symbol sets and themes, and deeper stats.
