Show HN: A Strategic Guessing Game
one-dead.web.appBookmarking it, loved the idea...
Fastest for me was (Skill wise) 13 tries and 1 min 40 sec.
First time was beginner's luck and got 2 dead 2 injured and that got solved in less time and tries, but that was purely a lucky guess.
I've spent upwards of 5 min and 50+ tries as well in some of them but that's because I kept loosing the track of which one's are dead.
Haven't played enough yet... but average tries are 15-19 ranges avg time for me is 1.40-3.40 ranges.
Still not sure on strategy, but I am doing brute force here twice.
First I get a combination that has nothing (in my head I call that combination as "Bad Ambulance") which will find injured and make them dead.
I will gladly spend my time on this.
Loved it.. 10/10
Edit :- Bad Ambulance totally works, 10 tries 1 min 20sec.
I'm happy you enjoy it. I think I should add a high score tab too
Such a simple and great idea. Not sure if "Repeating numbers" scenario is error you want to prevent that tactic from players. I wanted to start from "1111".
Sorry to reply this late.
Am really glad you enjoy it. Warms my heart.
The game doesn't allow for repeating numbers. My thinking is that not allowing it makes it much easier to pinpoint the numbers. If I think a number exists, it would reduce the number of combinations and the game time.
Agree!
So far my average is 1:50 with 8 trials. My worst is usually 11-13 trials in 3:30
Like wordle, but Number?
Yep. I haven't played wordle yet, but when I made it, they looked very similar.
