Project 45
Mind Reader Game
Build the circuit below. It uses the red jumper
wire 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 the loose end of the red jumper wire
on the 5-snap wire at positions A, B, or C and
then pressing the press switch (S2). If Player 2
places the red jumper wire 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.
