How to play
A secret four-dial code is set, and you can't see it. You make guesses, and an informant sells you feedback, chiefly how many of your dials are correct, letting you narrow the possibilities through logic. Each clue costs you, so the goal is to deduce the exact code in as few purchased hints and guesses as possible.
Set the four dials to a guess and submit it.
Buy clues from the informant, like how many dials are correctly placed.
Reason from each clue to home in on the one true combination.
