WOHLE
=======
by Gary Henderson
Welcome to WOHLE a game by Gary Henderson. Wohle is based on the old game
of MastermindĀ® by Invicta Games which was about during the late 1970's.
To start the game click on the provided icon from workbench. The game will
then proceed to load. Once loaded you are presented with a screen that
displays all the required functions to play the game. Wohle is completely
mouse driven. You now have three possible options to choose with the mouse.
QUIT
----
At any time click on this button to leave the game.
Play
----
You can click on the play button at any time to start or restart a game.
Timer
-----
You can choose this option to start or restart a game. With this selection
you are given 30 seconds to complete the code.
Rules
=====
When you start a Timed or normal game the computer will Randomly make up
a selection of 4 coloured pegs. These pegs will be made up of any colours
and placed beneath the shield at the top of the screen in the play area.
The position and colours of these pegs will remain the same throughout the
game until you have guessed the code or clicked on Timer or Play for a new
game. Using any 4 different pegs with upto 8 colours there are upto 4096
permutations available for any code. (There are 4096 different possible
codes)
You must now, using the mouse and pointer select any four colours
(by clicking with the left mouse button onto the required coloured peg)
that you think might be in the code. The colours must be selected in the
correct order. If you make a mistake whilst selecting click with the Right
Mouse button to erase the current line of colours that you are working on.
Once you have entered four different colours the computer will advise you
about which are the correct and inncorrect colours. This is done by
placing smaller key pegs at the sides of the Coloured pegs that you have
selected (See Below for further information). You may then enter another
four pegs (using your knowledge of which pegs are correct and inncorrect)
to try and get the code. You have upto ten guesses to try and break the
code. My record is 2 guesses. In the timed game you have 10 guesses or
until 30 seconds runs out (whichever comes first) to get the code.
Key Pegs
-------- Key Pegs | Guessed Pegs | Key Pegs
----------------------------------
a b | A B C D | c d
Key pegs are placed either side of the guessed pegs as shown above to let
you know which are the correct and incorrect colours. The letter `a' shows
the result for the guessed peg `A'. `c' shows the result for `C'.
A Black key Peg
---------------
Is placed on the board to show that the guessed peg is the correct colour
and it has been placed in the same place as the corresponding Peg under
the shield.
A White key Peg
---------------
Is placed on the board to show that the guessed peg is the correct colour
but has been placed in the wrong hole on the board (ie it should be in one
of the other holes).
A Grey cross
------------
Is placed on the board to show that the chosen peg is an inncorrect colour
and does not appear under the shield.
* Do not forget that some colours may appear more than once and if you *
* select a colour and it is correct the pegs will not indicate that this *
* colour appears elsewhere. *
Winning
-------
You have won once you have managed to correctly guess the complete code.
At this stage the Pegs under the Shield will be revealed to you and a well
deserved round of applause will be granted.
Losing
------
Thicky ! You can't really lose at this game unless playing against the
clock but if you do the correct code will be revealed to you and a short
Hahaha will burst to life through you Hifi.
Credits

Wohle was written using Europress Software's AMOS V1.3 over a period of a
