Mastermind for Kids

Mastermind for Kids Review



Mastermind for Kids Feature

  • Features 3 levels of play
  • Designed for kids with jungle animals
  • Contains plastic game base with rocky mountain tray, 72 jungle animals in 6 colors, 15 red scoring pegs, 15 white scoring pegs
  • For 2 to 4 players
  • Directions included
Younger kids can develop their powers of logic and deduction in this game of code-cracking fun. This version is simplified for younger children and comes with colorful animal pegs, a jungle-and-mountain-theme board, and fewer code options. The point is the same: one player duplicates the other's code in as few turns as possible. The code maker sets a code of 3 colored animals (choosing from 72 in six colors), and conceals it beneath a "rocky mountain" tray at his or her side of the board. In each of nine rows (of large holes), the code breaker attempts to replicate the pattern. After each row (or turn), the code maker places red or white creature pieces in the adjacent row of small holes, which gives the code breaker clues on how he or she doing. Complete instructions include rules for younger players (based on colors only), older players (color and position), and expert players (a blank-space option adds complexity). This challenging and fun game is for two players. --Ava Natov Break the hidden code of jungle animals. The classic game Mastermind is now specially designed for kids. With three levels of play, it's the Mastermind game that grows with your child. For the youngest players, it's a colorful game of guessing which animals are hiding. For the older child, the game rules become more advanced and players must guess the order that they're in, too.

Set your secret code by hiding jungle animals under the rocky mountain. There's lions and tigers and bears - monkeys, hippos and elephants, too. See how soon your opponent can guess your code. Along the way, you'll give clues to help. Then you get to break a code. The winner is the player who can guess the code in the fewest turns. Includes: plastic game base with rocky mountain tray, 72 jungle animals, 15 red scoring pegs, 15 white scoring pegs and instructions.
