The colour order code-breaking game. Keep the order secret, tell your rival how many are right.
Six coloured bottles, one secret order. The Keeper sets it (shuffled or arranged by hand) and the Guesser has ten tries to reproduce it. After every try the server tells the Keeper alone how many bottles stand in the right place. With voice chat on, the Keeper says the number out loud; without it, the number appears on the Guesser’s screen by itself. Roles swap for round two; whoever needs fewer guesses wins.

How to play Guess the Order
There are six bottles in different colours. One of you is the Keeper and sets a secret order, shuffled or arranged by hand.
The other is the Guesser and lines the bottles up in the order they think is right.
After each try, the server tells the Keeper how many bottles are in the right place, not which ones.
With voice chat on, the Keeper says the number out loud; without voice, it appears on the Guesser’s screen by itself.
The Guesser has ten tries. Then roles swap for round two.
Whoever solved it in fewer guesses wins. The same number, or neither solving it, is a draw.
Controls
Tap a bottle to place it, tap a placed bottle to take it back
Keeper: with voice on, say the number aloud or tap “Show it on their screen”, without voice it appears there by itself
Tips to win
Change only two bottles between tries: if the number moves, you know those two were involved.
Work out one position at a time, once a bottle is known to be right, leave it where it is.
As the Keeper, arrange the order by hand into something unlikely rather than a pattern like the rainbow.

Questions
Can I play Guess the Order online with a friend?
Yes. Open Guess the Order, choose to play a friend and send them the private room link, they open it on their own phone or computer and the match starts when you are both ready. You can also invite a player by username, or take a quick match against whoever is waiting.
Is Guess the Order free, and do I need an account?
It is free, with no download and no account needed: press play and you join as a guest. Create an account later if you want to keep your match history and earn a rating on the leaderboard.
Is there voice chat?
Yes. Guess the Order has built-in voice chat so the Keeper can call out the number. It is optional: without it, the number shows up on the Guesser’s screen.
Can the Guesser see the secret order in their browser?
No. The secret stays on the server until the round ends, and only the count of correct places is shared.
