CODE requires 3 Sims, one with Body, one with Mechanical, and one with Logic.  The Object of the game is to guess the correct order of the CODE.  Each sim can select an A, B, or a C.  The sims guess the CODE with BODY being the FIRST letter, Mech is the 2nd Letter, and Logic is the 3rd letter.  So if you wanted to guess ABC, then Body Sim would push A, Mech Sim will push B, and the Logic Sim will press C.  After you make each guess, the CODE Machine will tell you how many letters are correct , however you do not know which letters are in the right places.  There are 2 ways of solving the CODE.
Process of Guessing over Time
This is the FIRST way I learned how to do CODE since I did not have the chart printed out yet.  Basically the first round you all guess AAA to see how many A's are in the CODE, then BBB and see how many B's are in the CODE.  By knowing you have 1 A and 2 B's you can guess it is going to be ABB or BAB or BBA and one of those HAS to be it.  There are all kinds of possible solutions, however it is not a precise process and can take alot more time to accomplish.  So thats why I suggest The Hermione CBU Chart Process to solve the CODE.

The Chart is the most Systematic and Logical way to Solve the CODE puzzle.  It Always starts with AAA, and from there branches out to ABB unless there is NO A at all then, it is BBB, and each branch of the chart flows out until you get the answer.  I use to GUESS what the answer was, and I did solve it, however now that I have the chart, and have played with 2 others that are using the chart, it is the ONLY way I play anymore.  Both of the other CODErs KNOW what their next letter is going to be, and no one HAS to announce to the others the next step.  I have found that using a toothpick to slide along the chart as each step goes forth to keep track just in case I lose track.  How it works is, when you guess AAA it will tell you there are 2 letters correct, 1 letter correct, or NO letters correct, and depending on what the result from that step is you go to the next step down the flow chart.  The answer can only be 2,1,or 0 so even the LONGEST code is only 5 steps.  And most are 3 steps to 4 steps long.  However, sometimes the Maxis God's are being generous and you will get an AAA, or BBB, or ABB, or CCC combo, and a FEW times i have got a couple ones like that in a row.  Sometimes everyone loses track, and you should just start back over with AAA, that is the best way if you are stuck. 
The pic above is what the buttons look like for the CODE Machine.  In this example, I am in the Mech, so my letter will be the 2nd letter in the CODE.  So if we were guessing ABC, I would press B.
REMEMBER IT ALWAYS STARTS AAA
SO CLICK A AS SOON AS IT LETS YOU SO YOU ALL AREN'T WAITING FOR THE OTHERS TO PRESS A, CUZ YOU KNOW YOU HAVE TO AND THE FASTER YOU ALL START ANOTHER ROUND THE MORE MONEY YOU CAN MAKE BEFORE ONE OF YOU DE-GREENS.
