{"game":"codebreaker","name":"Codebreaker","description":"Similar to the popular game Mastermind. Deduce a hidden code of colored pegs from black and white feedback pegs before you run out of guesses.","kind":"finite","rules_html":"\n    <p>The computer hides a secret code: a row of colored pegs. Colors are written as letters: <code>R</code> red, <code>G</code> green, <code>B</code> blue, <code>Y</code> yellow, <code>O</code> orange, <code>P</code> purple, and in hard mode also <code>W</code> white and <code>K</code> black. Positions are numbered from 1 on the left.</p>\n    <ul>\n      <li><b>Standard:</b> 4 pegs, 6 colors (R G B Y O P), 10 guesses. The secret uses 4 <b>different</b> colors.</li>\n      <li><b>Hard:</b> 5 pegs, 8 colors (R G B Y O P W K), 12 guesses. The secret <b>may repeat</b> colors.</li>\n    </ul>\n    <p>Each guess is a full code (your guesses may repeat colors in either mode). You get feedback: one <b>black</b> peg for each peg that is the right color in the right position, and one <b>white</b> peg for each other peg that is the right color in the wrong position. Each secret peg is counted at most once, so with secret <code>R R G B</code> and guess <code>R G R R</code> you get 1 black and 2 white. Feedback pegs don't say which positions they refer to.</p>\n    <p>You win when a guess gets all black pegs. The game ends when you win, run out of guesses, or <code>resign</code>. The secret is revealed at the end.</p>\n    <p><b>Score:</b> a win scores (max guesses + 1 − guesses used) × 10, so a standard win on guess 4 scores 70. Hard mode doubles the score. A loss scores 2 points per black peg in your best guess (doubled in hard mode).</p>","commands":[{"syntax":"guess <code>","description":"Guess a full code, written as color letters with or without spaces.
