ColorChallenge

This app was a candidate in the Apptivate.MS semi-finals. See how it did among the other candidates in the Games group.

Are you smart enough to guess a 4-color combination with just a few clues? Find out now if you can do it in the 8 tries to hit the right answer out of more than 1500 possibilities.

ColorChallenge is an exciting logic game where you will have to guess the right combination of colors and positions. After each try, you will be given some clues: a black dot for every color matching the solution, and a white dot for every color in the solution but wrongly placed. These clues will help you to get closer to the real combination and ultimately find out the actual solution, hopefully before you run out of tries!

Thanks for your vote! Let's say Windows 8 is really good, and the app integrates quite nicely ;)

New version in the store. Now we take advantadge of some more windows 8 features: -Live tiles, updating and showing your score (you can disable this) -Now you can mute sounds and stope tile updating from settings charm -Share your score from the share charm -Also, we decided it would be good to let users choose the colors not only from the palette, but from previously used colors in the board

Played this type of game first time and lost. Makes me feel playing it again.

Hope you enjoy it!

I lost the first time too, now my score is 25-7, hehehe

A fresh and great concept of Game. Loved it.

A. Alejo Dec 5 '12 at 20:11

Thanks for supporting!

@Ankit You obviously haven't played Mastermind

Sharp Peter Dec 5 '12 at 23:02

@RichardTheKiwi A bit harder than Mastermind. Since there are more colors, but no color repetition is allowed, the strategy to play the game is quite different

RichardTheKiwi Dec 5 '12 at 23:04

Where I come from, we call those minor variations. But I voted up anyway since I don't know of any Win8 Mastermind clones

A. Alejo Dec 6 '12 at 10:29

Let's call 'version of' ;). Thanks!

I love when people don't get lost in very complex interfaces and produce games like these. I think that's the main idea for the W8 apps (what they use to call Metro apps, now windows store apps, a think) and you completely achieved it. Bravo!

A. Alejo Dec 5 '12 at 20:11

Thank you for enthusiastic support!

Martha Dec 4 '12 at 15:44

Funny and simple game. Nice idea. More customization option will help the users interaction.

A. Alejo Dec 4 '12 at 11:56

Tjanks for your suggestion. We are currently planning to let the user change the background and turn sounds on/off. Any other idea would be appreciated!

Sara Powel Dec 6 '12 at 0:07

What about a customizable number of colors/tries?

Salchi13 Dec 3 '12 at 23:37

Very nice app. The idea and the interface is simple but effective.
