Smallish Games 100 - 300 LOC with at most a image or sound file.


Bowling
@johnno56 was very helpful with this way back when we were at SmallBASIC forum. I left a copy of that SmallBASIC code (the bas that starts with SB) for nostalgia. This one seems different than usual computer game.

Nonogram Trainer

Inspired and made aware of Nonograms by RokCoder here:
https://qb64phoenix.com/forum/showthread...7#pid12467

I made a Nonogram Trainer here to get up to speed on solving these kinds of puzzles. You can start with trivial 1x1 and work your way up to 9x9 puzzles. Then you might be ready for RokCoder's puzzle with the works!

Instructions: after choosing the number of cells per side you want to try, you will be presented a grid with number along each row and col. Those numbers represent a run of white squares in that row or col. By clicking the cells on or off, your goal is to match those runs in rows and cols.

Mastermind is a great game, and this is a very nice implementation of it.
I love logic puzzles (as long as they're reasonably solvable).
"Best Scores" are not appropriate, but maybe some sort of acknowledgement of solving it would be Nice?
Of all the places on Earth, and all the planets in the Universe, I'd rather live here (Perth, W.A.) Big Grin

Nice one (again!)
I haven't mastered it yet, but hope to soon - I solved it once already (with 3x3) Rolleyes
I experimented with adding a "tries" counter, but it's a bit hard to check if it works when I can't even solve it!  Sad

Hi @PhilOfPerth,

The trick is to find the edges that don't have a matching opposite color, those go along the edges.

If you don't find a couple of those a 4X4 is pretty hard, for me anyway.
