This review is from: Retro Mastermind (Toy)
I forced my kids to play Mastermind because I am a 40 year old child that won’t let go of my own childhood. I loved Mastermind as a lad and, by God, I was going to make my kids love it to. My mastermind was brown. This one is gray (grey) (I heard that either spelling is now acceptable). The black and white pegs are much smaller than I remember and my big sausage fingers have a hard time getting them out of the slots. I get very frustrated and have to count to 6, sometimes 7. My kids love the game, I am happy to report. My five year old thinks she is really clever and codes her pegs all black. At this point myself, my wife and our older daughter all know her scheme, but play along so as not to crush her spirit. "4 black, again!?!? Who would have thought?" Some might say that is encouraging mediocrity and not challenging her to come up with more intricate codes, but it’s Sunday afternoon. Can’t we take a break, one afternoon from vigorous academics that will hopefully get her into an Ivy? I prefer Yale, my wife is Princeton, all the way. I know what you’re thinking, "Yale ain’t gonna happen if you continually allow her to code 4 blacks and then play along like you don’t know she coded 4 blacks." In conclusion, Mastermind is a great game for adult parents that loved Mastermind as a kid themselves, to force on the next generation. Operation, on the other hand, is a game that was spawned by Satan himself.

I remember the game from the 70s when I was a child and wanted the same color combinations. I heard some of the newer ones don’t have black and white. I’m looking forward to playing this with my kids.

Great game we played when we were younger. Bought this one for granddaughter who like our old one. This one has trays that our older one does not have good place to store the parts
