Krypton
Krypton is based on the "Mastermind" pegboard game but with shapes as well as colours. A sample game is shown to the right. Click here for a full screen-shot.
The scoring for each guess consists of three numbers:
|
BLACK |
the number of objects that are in the right place |
|
WHITE |
the number of objects that are in the wrong place |
|
GREY |
the number of objects that are either the right shape or the right colour (but not both) in the right place |
Here's a sample code and guess:
The scoring for this example is as follows:
|
1 BLACK |
for the Black Square in the right place |
|
1 WHITE |
for the Green Circle in the wrong place |
|
2 GREYS |
1 for the Green Circle being the same shape as the Blue Circle |
Plans for the future development of Krypton include more (intermediate) levels, and the development of a real 'deKrypter' which makes use of all the information in the scoring to deduce the code.
