Master Mind  Play this classic code breaking game custom made specially for the iPhone and iPod Touch. The object of the game is to correctly guess the exact sequence of light pegs, in both order and colour within as few guesses as possible. Once you have entered in a series of light pegs, press the "OK" button to reveal how you did. A white indicator reveals a light peg that is the correct colour, but in the wrong hole. A black indicator reveals a light peg that is the correct colour and in the correct hole. The order of indicator lights does not reflect which light pegs are correct.
