Game description
The 500 Numbers Game is a strategic guessing tournament where players face off, using their knowledge of each other’s secret strategies to guess numbers. Can you outsmart your opponents and claim the throne with the fewest attempts?
How to Play
1. Start the Tournament
After selecting your name, the tournament will be automatically drafted, and you’ll be placed in a match against a unique contender. Each of your opponents has their own secret strategy that you can see before or during the battle.
2. View Opponent Information
To view your opponent’s strategy, simply click the blue INFO button located in the top-left corner of the screen. This will reveal crucial information about how they plan to guess numbers.
3. 18 Unique Contestants
There are 18 different contenders, each with their own distinct guessing strategy. Study their methods carefully, as every player plays with a different approach.
4. Guess the Right Numbers
Knowing your opponent’s strategy is helpful, but it’s not enough to win. You still need to guess the right numbers in the limited number of attempts. Make every guess count!
5. Compete for the Throne
Do you have what it takes to win the 500 Numbers Throne? Finish the tournament in the fewest attempts possible and share your record below to see who can finish the quickest!
Theme interpretation
The theme influenced me in two key ways:
1. It inspired the core concept of the game—guessing opponents’ secret numbers to progress in the tournament.
2. It shaped the unique mechanic where players can view their opponents’ secret strategies, using this insight to outwit them and claim victory.

Interesting game! 😄 I completed it using binary search, which was a fun twist. A very solid result, especially impressive for a debut — great job! It's a pity there was no music
Thank you for your kind compliments. Haha binary search to win! Good to know, in a future update I know what to counter haha.
Very simple but pretty fun! I enjoyed that you added some world building to the number guessing game lol
As others said, simple but addicting. Preferences add a layer of strategy to this game, as halving, mathematically, would be the most efficient way to go. Music would fit perfectly in here and - as others said - be the icing on the cake. Good job!
Thank you for your feedback. Can you tell me exactly what you mean by the sentence below? Thanks in advance.

A really simple but fun and addictive game, liked the visuals of the game,
this game is so simple... but I had so much fun hahahah. I managed to win once out of 5-6 tries. I laughed when I saw THE GOAT
In all seriousness, it is an enjoyable game, although simple. I loved the artstyle. Having audio in this game would have been the icing on the cake. I loved how many characters there are, and the strategies made it more engaging than just random guessing. Though some strategies were a lot more clear than others.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the feedback! I think one of my biggest regrets is that I did not have enough time to finish the audio. I had the audio tracks ready, but in the end I did not have enough time to implement them.
And I also love TheGoat and that he became the new ruler of the 500 number throne in your playthrough.
