Description

Figure It, a.k.a. Domemo or Code Mine, is a captivating game with simple rules that challenges players to discover their own set of numbers — numbers that other players can see, but not you — using probability and deductive reasoning.

The game includes seven "7" tiles, six "6" tiles, five "5" tiles, and so on down to one "1" tile. A player can deduce their tile numbers based on the other players' tile distribution.

Deduce your numbered tiles first to win! Each player is assigned numbered tiles that they cannot see but are visible to all other players. On your turn, call out a number you think is part of your set to break your secret code! Use your deduction skills in this captivating game for the whole family! Can you crack your secret code?

This game is clearly a variation of Alex Randolph's own »Code 777«.
(Other similar games are e.g Coyote, What's that on my head, Egghead , and many others ...)

Note: The name P. Halvah on the cover of the first Domemo-version (Ravensburger German edition from 1975) is one of Alex Randolph's pseudonyms !
