Breaklock
A Mastermind-style puzzle played on a pattern lock — deduce the hidden pattern from the clues.
How to play Breaklock
- 1 Draw a pattern across the dots to make a guess.
- 2 After each guess you are told how many dots were right, and how many were in the right place.
- 3 Use those clues to narrow down the hidden pattern.
- 4 Crack it before you run out of attempts.
About Breaklock
Breaklock combines an Android pattern lock with the logic of Mastermind. You are never told which dots are correct, only how many — so every guess is really an experiment designed to rule out possibilities.
Frequently asked questions
How do you play Breaklock?
Draw a pattern across the dots to make a guess. After each attempt you are told how many dots were correct and how many were in the right place — use those clues to deduce the hidden pattern.
What is the difference between Breaklock and Mastermind?
The logic is the same deduction puzzle, but instead of coloured pegs you draw a pattern on an Android-style lock screen, so the order of the dots matters as much as which ones you pick.
Can I play Breaklock on a phone?
Yes — it was built mobile-first. Drag your finger across the dots to draw a pattern.
Any tips for cracking the code faster?
Treat each guess as an experiment rather than an attempt to win. Changing one dot at a time tells you far more than guessing wildly, because you can attribute the change in feedback to that dot.
