Product Description

"Detect. Deduce. Decode. A Battle of Wits over the Code Machine." Da Vinci is a genius in coding messages creatively. In this game, you will stretch your imaginative and logical mind to crack the secret behind the Code Machine. Come unlock the genius within! The product is a beautiful fusion of a Word game and a Logic game. Its interactive game-play makes it a great piece for friends and family pastimes. The difficulty levels are controlled by players so it is also a nice adult-child educational toy. Something special about this product is that it features a patented word coding method that is unique but easy to understand. So while enjoying the fun and challenge, players can gain knowledge of vocabulary and coding. Easy To Learn...HOW TO PLAY... (STEP 1)- Draw two game cards to determine the "Word Type" and "Spelling Condition" of the secret word to be formed. Reveal the two cards to all players. (STEP 2)- One player uses the chips to form a secret word by the method illustrated on the Code Machine. Cover it with all windows closed. (STEP 3)- The other player(s) must crack the secret word with as few windows opened as possible. Ask questions wisely for hints in the process. The player that requires less windows opened is the winner. For details please refer to our website http://www.DaVinciMachine.com

Without being too sexist... Usually Men like logic games and Women are good at Word games. This product is a clever combination of both! Players apply logic and inspiration to crack secret coded words. I played it with my honey and we both had a good time challenging (and teasing) each other. Easy-to-learn rules, interactive game play. Could be quite addictive. I reckon it can also be a nice family game for adult vs. child, i.e. an educational toy.
Again, for the love of words or logic, enjoy the interactions.
My personal recommendation of the year.

It is a combination of word-puzzle and logic games. The game rules are intuitive enough, just took 1 minute to learn. I played it with the teenagers in my house and we all loved it. Quite inspiring. I reckon this could be a new classic game, equivalent to, like, the Scrabble or Mastermind of our time. I would definitely recommend it as a holiday gift for school kids and adults alike.
