Mastermind is a classic board game that challenges players to use logic and deduction. In the game, one player creates a secret code using colored pegs, while the other player attempts to guess the code within a limited number of tries. After each guess, the code maker provides feedback with smaller pegs to indicate how many colors are correct and in the right position, as well as how many colors are correct but in the wrong position. The game typically involves two players, but it can also be played in teams. Mastermind is known for enhancing critical thinking and problem-solving skills, making it a popular choice for both casual and competitive play. It has inspired various adaptations and digital versions, maintaining its appeal across generations.
