- ExtraE 5y agoThey’re usually correlated. It’s… unusual to have a monster with a 25 Dex and a 2 Str
- labster 5y agoIndeed. For today’s, it was useful to know that for critters usually don’t dump Wis in the same way as other mental stats, because it represents environmental awareness. You recognize the build type (e.g. animal, caster, monstrous race) and try to fill in from there.
- qbasic_forever 5y agoI think the intent is to guess monsters. My friend is really into dnd, being a dungeon master, etc. and could easily tell certain monsters from their stats alone.
- josephcsible 5y agoIn this game and others in the Wordle family, for each square in the guess, you get green, yellow, or black feedback specifically for it. In Mastermind, you'd only get told the total number of greens and the total number of yellows per line, not exactly which squares they came from.
- myrion 5y agoDepends on which version of mastermind. In the one I had as a kid, you'd get which guesses were correct etc, just like here.
- franga2000 5y agoI mean yeah, Wordle is basically just Mastermind too, but with a new spin. But while I haven't met a single person in real life that knew Mastermind, everyone and their dog seem to be playing Wordle. Popular games (and all other media) are almost always very closely inspired by older, less popular games/media. Nothing wrong with that.
