Arduino LCD game: Nicomachus

 Once more Emmanuel Turner has ported another game to work with an Arduino and our LCD Keypad Shield. In this instalment he brings us the classic game "Nicomachus". It's very good - you think of a number, then answer three questions from the Arduino - and it guesses your number. It's a classic that dates back to 90AD and adapted from the classic book of games by David Ahl. Review the video for a demonstration:


Once again - well done Emmanuel. For more information including the sketch and other interesting Arduino projects, visit Emmanuel's siteAnd for more, we're on twitter and Google+, so follow us for news and product updates as well.

Instead of building your own LCD module onto a breadboard, save time and move forward with the Freetronics LCD & Keypad shield which contains a bright 16x2 character LCD and five buttons that can be read from only one analog input pin:
