who wants to play mindgames

Kokubunji, 2026.02.17

For my next silly AI trick, I dusted off some other code from the early '90s, which I last tinkered with circa 1996 after I'd been working as a developer for a while. This time it was a game I called "Mindgame", based on the 1970 board game "Mastermind". I uploaded it as shareware on AOL in 1994, and poked around with it for another couple of years before setting it aside.

With the assistance of Claude, I have made an online version of that, replete with terrible sounds from back in the day. It is found here.
