1. Controls
-----------
Use the mouse. This is a Macromedia Flash 5 game and is wrapped inside the Flash
player, so it is possible to right click anywhere inside the player for the
default Flash options. You can also press [CTRL][F] to toggle full screen mode
which then enables you to drag out and resize the game to whatever size you want!

2.The Rules of the Game
-----------------------
Many people will have already experienced this classic logic game before,
but for those who haven't here are the rules:-

Correctly guess the randomnly generated code created by the computer.
This code is represented by a number of coloured pegs, the number of which
is dependant on the level of play selected.

Once you have confirmed your selection, the computer will analyse your pegs
and respond with clues with regard to the positioning and colour of the pegs
you have chosen.

You will have up to ten chances to crack the code. At the lower levels of
play you will most likely find this sufficient, but at the highest you will
definitely need to be efficient with your guessing to succeed.

3. Features
-----------
  7 challenging levels of difficulty with possible combinations ranging from
  343 to 40,353,607!
  My interpretation of a classic logic game that's both rewarding and fun.
  Colourful graphics, quality sounds and intuitive interface.
  Freeware created by a professional software developer.

my Web site, it's great.

v1.0 - Hey Flash 5 with Action Script, cool. Now I wonder if I can port my old
JavaScript Mastermind game into Flash 5? Job done :o)
