📖 About This Game

Alphabet Code is a fast-paced logic and deduction game for 2 or more players. Each player secretly creates a 5-letter code using digital-style alphabet tiles (a–j), hidden behind a screen. Players take turns asking grid-based questions to deduce their opponent’s code before their own is uncovered. On your turn, choose to ask: How many adjacent squares are filled around a certain zone? Is a specific square filled? The game rewards clever questioning, spatial reasoning, and strategic thinking. If you believe you’ve cracked your opponent’s code, you may declare your answer—but beware: two incorrect guesses and you lose! With optional Advance Rules that use real words and expanded setups using more letters, Alphabet Code offers scalable challenge and replayability. Great for fans of deduction games like Mastermind or Cryptid, but with a uniquely visual and tactical twist. —description from the publisher
