Number Detective

No doubt you played "I Spy" with a parent, with your child or with a sibling on one of those long family drives. Each player would take their turn by saying the phrase "I spy with my little eye, something _____", usually filling in the blank with a color, shape, etc. The Number Detective uses NUMBERS instead. The object of the game is to guess a randomly generated number, between 1 - 999, before your opponent can. Clues are provided to help you narrow your guesses.

FEATURES

RANGE INDICATORS. Range Indicators depict the proximity of the guess to the winning number. If the "Hint Arrows" option is enabled, Range Indicators are filled in with either an UP or DOWN arrow, indicating that the guess is less than or greater than the winning number. 

COMPUTER OPPONENTS. You may choose one "Human" opponent or up to three "Computer" opponents.
The first player is always Human. The second player can either be a Human or a Computer type.

PEEK OPTION. Depending on age/skill level, a Human player might want to see the guess(es) of his/her opponent(s). Pressing the "Show Last Guess" option will display a mini-window with last guess and Range Indicator of all players.

SMART COMPUTER OPPONENTS. Each computer opponent uses its previous guess and Range Indicator independently so as to continually reduce the range of its next random guess.

SWARM MODE. Swarm mode allows computer opponents to collaborate. Each computer guess is still randomly generated, but the range is continually refined with each computer guess. This causes the swarm guess to converge rapidly on the winning number.

CHEAT MODE: Sometimes a parent might need to know the winning number ahead of time in order to help direct a child. If the right hand (landscape)/lower (portrait) panel is pressed and held for more than two seconds, the winning number will be revealed.

Good Luck!
