This is a numbers game that makes you really think! The object of this game is to stop the Bubble Gum Machine from exploding. Sounds easy right? Well it's a bit trickier than you would think!
You begin with 12 chances and 2 minutes to save the Gumball Machine. Each chance has three boxes. Use the numbers on your keyboard to enter combinations of numbers. You will get a green gumball for each number in the correct place and a red gumball for each correct number that is in the WRONG place. You can use the backspace key to change your guess. The game is over if you run out of time or guesses. You will receive 1=W= Kinzcash for every 300 points. The fewer guesses you take and the less time you use, the more points you will get!
HINT: So this is what we do to try to figure out the combinations. We start with three numbers like 1, 2, 3 and if I get no gumballs, then I know that none of those numbers are in the combination so I chose the next three numbers 4, 5, 6 to see what I get. If I get a green then I try to figure out which of the three numbers is in the right place and work from there. If I get two greens then I try to guess which two numbers are in the right place. If I get one red and one green and I have guess which number is in the correct place, then I remove one of the other two numbers to see my results...if I still get a red..then I have chosen two of the correct numbers. If not, then I need to go back and try the correct number and the number that I didn't try. Get it? I hope so! Sounds confusing! Well, if you think about it methodically and keep note of what numbers you used and what you didn't then you should be able to figure it out rather quickly!
Good luck! Go Go Gumballs!
