Project #23
Mind Reader Game
Build the circuit below. It uses a paper clip and
a 3-Snap Wire as “shorting bars”.
Setup:
Player 1 sets the target by placing the
3-snap shorting bar under the paper on column
2, 3 or 4. Player 2 must NOT know where the
shorting bar is located under the paper.
The object is for Player 2 to guess the location
by placing one end of the paper clip on the 5-
snap wire as shown, and the other end of the
paper clip at positions X, Y, or Z and then
pressing the press switch (S2). If Player 2
places the paper clip at the correct position, the
sounds played indicates a “hit”. He keeps
guessing until he hits. After each hit, remove the
3-snap shorting bar and slide the switch off and
on to reset the sound.
Player 2 then sets the 2, 3, 4 side and player 1
tries his luck.
Play multiple rounds and see who gets the best
overall score. The winner will be the player who
is best at reading his opponent’s mind.
