Master Mind is a Classic Mac implementation of the venerable code-breaking board game, in which the player must deduce a hidden sequence of colored pegs through successive guesses and the feedback of black and white marker pegs. K.W. Chan's 1996 Mac version brings that pencil-and-paper logic puzzle to the desktop with a clean, mouse-driven interface.
Gameplay
The objective is to break a five-color secret combination. Players drag colored pieces into the row of holes; the game responds with black chess pieces for pegs that are the right color in the right position and white chess pieces for the right color in the wrong position.
Author and Era
The Mac release is credited to K.W. Chan and dates to 1996, sitting squarely in the mid-1990s wave of single-author Mac shareware logic games.
System
It runs on 68k Macintoshes under System 7.0 through 7.6 and remains compatible up to Mac OS 9, covering essentially the entire late Classic Mac OS lifespan.
