CodeBreakMP

CodeBreakMP is a multi-player Mastermind game. Similar to the 2 player game there is a code Master and one or more code Breakers. In this version each player runs CodeBreakMP on their own phone, the phones must be on the same WiFi network. The Master creates the code and starts the game. The Breakers then race to break the code in the fewest guesses or the fastest time.

Monitor Breakers joining the game in the Breaker/Connection window (the Connection is the unique portion of the Breakers WiFi address) Set the secret code by selecting the gray circles or select Auto-Create Code. Once all Breakers have joined and a secret code is set start the game by selecting Start.

Monitor Breakers progress in guessing the secret code. R means they guessed the correct color in the Right position, W means they guessed the correct color in the Wrong position. You will be notified as each Breaker solves the code. When all Breakers have solved the code select Winner to send the Winners to yourself and the Breakers. Winners are generated for the Breaker(s) who solve the code in the fewest number of guesses and in the fastest time.
