About Bring The Number Back
Then you both score the opponent's guess and try to guess the opponent's number in turns. The challenge though is that it's an entry for the 2019 Js13kGames coding competition and hence has to be under 13 kb. The game is yet another implementation of the good old Bulls'&'Cows.
Bring The Number Back was submitted to the js13kGames 2019 competition by Sergey Chernykh. It earned competition recognition. Like every js13k entry, the entire game — code, art, and audio — fits in 13 kilobytes, a constraint that rewards focused, clever design over bulk. You and Robot make a four-digit number with no digit duplication.
How to Play
Bring The Number Back uses standard browser-game controls (keyboard, mouse, or touch). Open the game via the source link below to see the in-game instructions, as controls vary per entry.
