Finnaly an under 10 guesses and it was 5 im getting better at this cause i finnaly know how to use the purple ones the way your suppoesed to: if you have an purple it means that that number is somewhere but not there and with that knowledge i did it (see spoiler) and the spoiler is also a 'simple' guide for a way to think ---> i had 4 guesses and i knew that it had no f,d,b,a,6,4 or 0 anywhere the left was really high meaning it had to be e... i had lucky guess on the midle being 83 and i knewthe end was 15 or 17 and the purple numbers were: 9 7 and 8, so i had e?,83,1? the eight was used to the ?'s were a 9 or 7 the last only couldnt be 19 but it could be 17 so i did e9,83,17 and it was correct.
me pullin up to chromle with digital color meter
yeah... this aint it for me
man the green sucked 😭
At first I was excited thinking this would be a RGB guessing game, and we'd guess the RGB values (like 255,255,255), but it was actually HEX color codes. Caught me off guard but it's an interesting challenge.
The wording in the instructions is a little confusing though, I feel like it could be adjusted a bit specially for people who might not be super familiar with HEX. I'd probably change "groups" to "pairs" and highlight that each pair refers to R,G, B, for those unfamiliar with the breakdown.
I'd also probably change "quite correct" to simply "correct" (because the "quite" kinda makes it sound like it's not EXACTLY correct) and highlight that it only gets green once you get the PAIR correct, so getting just one character correct and in the right place won't be sufficient.
You kinda get the gist as you play, but if you were to tell me to explain what exactly some of these instructions mean I'd have a hard time. The general color symbology would make you think that yellow means the closest to correct, but "practically the same number as the target group" sounds closer to true than "very very close", so one can get confused as to which is actually closer, and someone playing for the first time someone might not realize when one is specifically referring to individual values, and not the pair. "A little off but still in reach" is also a bit ambiguous, due to the "still in reach".
In any case, it's entertaining once you figure it out.

re @milo: This site is not only incrementals
