House rules

In this implementation, all 2-player rules have been excluded. All games follow the rules for 3+ players. This means, for example, players don't have to ask the 4 types of questions before continuing with normal play.

Rules

Digit Code is a deduction game with the goal of establishing the identity of 6 numbers selecting from 0 to 9. The game board mimics classic LED readouts with each number placement represented by 7 "LEDs". The game begins with no LED activated/lit.


Each turn consists of gathering clues as to each numbers identity by learning:

  • Number of LEDs used for the final solution in columns or rows
  • If a number is an odd or even number
  • If a number is greater than or less than the number to its left
  • If a space/LED is empty or filled

Players can see the answers to each others questions.


The question mark button in the far bottom left of the screen illustrates the pattern of LEDs used for each number


Numbers adjacent either horizontally or vertically cannot be identical.


Each number can appear a maximum of 2 times


The winner is the first player to correctly identify the code, and the game ends immediately. If a player makes two wrong guesses, they are eliminated.


Notes can be taken, be sure to save your notes after each turn or they will be lost.

Notes are taken by either:

  • Clicking on numbers listed to the right of each number position to indicate elimination
  • Clicking on individual LEDs to either indicate inclusion or exclusion within the final solution.

The seven-segment digits are represented as the following LED patterns:
