Even though the question cards are random and kind of throw the game off a little, I just love it.

Code 777 is a clever logical deduction game where players must guess their own tiles. Each player has three tiles visible to others but not to themselves. With strategic questions, discover which numbers and colors you have. An engaging game for 2-5 players, lasting about 60 minutes, suitable for ages 10 and up.

As a kid who grew up doing logic puzzles ("Pete is twice as old as Jenny; the person who prefers oranges is older than..."), this game is right up my alley. I love deduction games, and this is an excellent one. Always a huge hit at game gatherings as well, as it is easy to teach and people are quickly absorbed. Edit: This game rules. Bumped up to a 10, I can see always wanting to play this.
Derk's complaint elsewhere about the notational system (or lack thereof) is one of the things I like MOST about this game. With every play I hone my notational skills at this more.
Owned the Jumbo edition for awhile, and quite happily too. Finally upgraded to the Stronghold edition and now I never look back. The plastic number tiles and tile holders, the colour-blind friendliness and the addition of a 5th player make this a must have copy of Code 777. This game is easily one of my most favourite deduction games of all time. It plays elegantly and is, at surface level, less complex than say - Sleuth but well and truly scratches that deduction itch.
Despite (and probably because of) it's abstract nature, this is one of the most fun deduction games I have ever played. It's very difficult to record all the information you need to, which forces you to attempt to refer to assumptions you previously made. In turn, this causes errors based on false premises, and the pressure to guess first encourages risk taking which, inevitably, ends in amusing failures! This game compares well to Hanabi, but seems to have more potential for clever deduction thanks to the note taking and more complex clues.
