Review & Giveaway : Mastermind Board Game
GIVEAWAY CLOSED!
A game of logic and deduction, Mastermind board game is an award winning game that has stood the test of time. First conceived in 1970 by an Israeli Postmaster Telecommunications expert named Mordecai Meirowitz, Mastermind has has sold over 55 million copies in over 80 countries around the world!
Our family are huge board game fans and we often host “Family Fun Nights” consisting of pizza, ice cream, and our favorite board games. When I received our copy of Mastermind to review, I knew that it would be a great fit for our next “Family Fun Night”- and I was so right!! This fun, colorful game is great for kids and adults of all ages. It was challenging enough that my husband played again and again, yet the rules are simple enough that even my five year old darling enjoyed it.It’s the code maker vs the codebreaker in this classic board game of logic and deduction. In order to win, players must use strategy and problem solvin
g skills to outsmart their opponent. One player is the codemaker and sets a code of colored pegs. The other player is the codebreaker and attempts to break the code with help from clues given by the codemaker.
Players take turns being codemaker and codebreaker and whoever breaks the code in the least amount of moves wins! For 2 Players. Ages 8 to adult.
