Product Description:
Break the hidden code of jungle animals. The classic game Mastermind is now specially designed for kids. With three levels of play, it's the Mastermind game that grows with your child. For the youngest players, it's a colorful game of guessing which animals are hiding. For the older child, the game rules become more advanced and players must guess the order that they're in, too.
Set your secret code by hiding jungle animals under the rocky mountain. There's lions and tigers and bears - monkeys, hippos and elephants, too. See how soon your opponent can guess your code. Along the way, you'll give clues to help. Then you get to break a code. The winner is the player who can guess the code in the fewest turns. Includes: plastic game base with rocky mountain tray, 72 jungle animals, 15 red scoring pegs, 15 white scoring pegs and instructions.
Editorial Review:
Younger kids can develop their powers of logic and deduction in this game of code-cracking fun. This version is simplified for younger children and comes with colorful animal pegs, a jungle-and-mountain-theme board, and fewer code options. The point is the same: one player duplicates the other's code in as few turns as possible. The code maker sets a code of 3 colored animals (choosing from 72 in six colors), and conceals it beneath a "rocky mountain" tray at his or her side of the board. In each of nine rows (of large holes), the code breaker attempts to replicate the pattern. After each row (or turn), the code maker places red or white creature pieces in the adjacent row of small holes, which gives the code breaker clues on how he or she doing. Complete instructions include rules for younger players (based on colors only), older players (color and position), and expert players (a blank-space option adds complexity). This challenging and fun game is for two players. --Ava Natov

I am going buy about 10 of these things to give for birthday gifts for all the parties we go to. My 5 year old loves this game and it is hard to get him to sit for anyother games. It is easy to understand and fun to play. I do wish the pieces were a little bigger so that larger hands to hold them better. The price is great too.

Recently received this for our 5 year old and I really cannot recommend it to anyone. Master Mind is a terrific game concept for developing logic, but this version of the game has a few problems. The most important is that, at the slightest bump of furniture or board, the game pieces do not stay in the shallow indentations on the board. Game over. It's really that simple and pretty much that inevitable. Also the scoring peg tray overflows into the secret code location so that every time one digs ... Read More

This game, with a three-color code, and using zoo animals, is great for kids. (The regular mastermind is four colors). Everyone from my four year old to ten year old and their friends love playing it. It is great for teaching logical deduction. Even if some pieces get lost, as long as you don't lose too many you can still play the game. Highly recommended, along with "Rush Hour for Kids," which builds on the same skills.

Okay, who designs and tests these games?? I don't get it. I also loved Mastermind as a child and bought this one for my 6 year old, figuring it would be easier to learn and play than the 4 peg version. Also it looks really neat in a picture. We opened it up yesterday and she loves it, but it is driving me crazy already. Granted, it is cute, all the pieces are bright colors and of animals, but they are small and they have shallow holes to fit into on the board, so they fall over a lot. A lot! ... Read More

...and go straight to the original Mastermind. I know I wish I had.
We picked this up for our 9yo son, with an eye toward our 6yo & 7yo nephews. I have fond memories of playing Mastermind as a kid and stumping my brother. The original wasn't available at Christmas, so I ordered this for kids who hadn't seen anything like it before. My son figured out his first pattern in 5 rounds. After that, he never went more than 4 rounds (or moves?) without solving it. We took turns playing with him for ... Read More
