Toys and Games Reviews of Travel MASTERMIND
Customer Review: Great Fun and Excellent Educational Value
Summary: 5 Stars
Travel Mastermind is like original Mastermind, but it is smaller and has a better format for storage because it has a lid which snaps shut to keep the pegs from getting lost. It still only rates a 4 for durability because of all the small pegs--keep them away from the wee ones because the pegs are definitely a choking hazard. I prefer this to the original Mastermind because it is smaller and has the snapping lid. Beware if you take it on vacation--look under the beds and couch before you depart to catch all the stray pieces.This travel format is a great investment for an elementary school classroom to be played during "free" time or on rainy days.
If you like Mastermind, try Advanced Mastermind which has more colors of pegs to be more challenging.
My daughter, age 7, learned Mastermind on vacation last summer and mastered the game. For Christmas she received Advanced Mastermind and has been playing steadily with her father. I have seen great improvements in her logical thinking skills both as she plays the game and in real life situations. We often have games that start on one day and continue the next.
Description of Travel MASTERMIND
Now you can take this challenging game of logic and deduction with you just about anywhere! For years, Mastermind has entertained people of all ages with its seemingly simple challenge: break a secret code in 8 turns or less. The Codebreaker uses educated guesses and clues from the Codemaker in hopes of solving the correct color and order of the coded pegs! With thousands of combinations, Mastermind is a challenge every time you play! Game includes game console with hinged cover, 60 Code pegs in 6 colors, 15 red scoring pegs, 15 white scoring pegs, and instructions.In-flight turbulence, choppy seas, feeling a pothole in the backseat of the SUV--nothing can interrupt your next game of Mastermind, the classic two-player challenge of logic and deductive code breaking that Games magazine saw fit to retire years ago as one of the all-time greats. With this deluxe travel edition, the codebreaker still tries to guess the codemaster's hidden sequence of colored pegs through trial and error. But now it all fits into a plastic game board/storage unit with a hinged snap lid--the whole thing is only slightly bigger than your sunglasses case. With the Deluxe Travel Mastermind, deduction and reduction have rarely merged so well. --Tony Mason
