Description

Laser Battle is a fast-paced and strategic game for two players that's all about outmaneuvering your opponent with lasers and mirrors. Designed by Ami Shapiro and first released in 2006, this game is easy to learn but challenging to master. The modular board allows for a variety of game-start layouts, and with the ability to expand using additional play-set boards, you'll never play the same game twice. The goal is simple: use your mirrors to bounce the laser into your opponent's Tower, triggering the light sensors and causing it to flash red and make an explosion sound, signaling the end of the game. What sets Laser Battle apart from other games is its unique blend of abstract strategy and electronic elements. The laser module and high-precision mirrors add a thrilling level of realism to the game, and the fact that the laser can be bounced orthogonally and diagonally at 16 different angles makes for some surprising and stealthy gameplay. With playtime ranging from 5 to 15 minutes, Laser Battle is the perfect game for a quick showdown with a friend. Despite its simplicity, the game requires a great deal of strategic thinking and quick reflexes, making it a fun and engaging challenge for players of all ages.
