📱 Introduction

This Xcode-based project is a collection of interactive mini-games written in Swift for iOS.

It focuses on logic design, modular structure, algorithmic thinking, and scalable game expansion while using SwiftUI for interface design.

One or two player modes are supported in some games.

The CPU opponent makes decisions using randomized guesses influenced by game difficulty, creating lightweight but replayable gameplay experiences.
