# Ansible Playbook: Mastermind
This project is attempt to bring the board game of of [Mastermind](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mastermind_(board_game)) (although a bit mixed with [Bulls and Cows](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulls_and_Cows)) to Ansible.
The goal is to find a secret combination of four coloured pegs in a given number of turns (here twelve) by submitting guesses and analysing the answers.
The game will display the result as a number of “bulls” (number of correctly guessed colours and positions) or “cows” (number of correctly guessed colours but incorrect positions).
At the end of each turn a summary of past guesses is displayed like this:
```
TASK [debug] *******************************************************************
ok: [localhost] =>
msg: |-
Turn 1: | red | red | red | red |
Turn 2: | red | blue | blue | blue |
Turn 3: | red | blue | blue | black |
Turn 4: | red | blue | black | blue |
----
4 bulls and 0 cows
```
