Description
Black Box is a classic puzzle game that's all about deduction and strategy. Designed by Eric Solomon and first published in 1977, it's a game that's easy to learn but challenging to master. One player creates a puzzle by secretly placing objects on a grid, while the other player tries to figure out where they are by shooting rays into the grid and observing how they bounce around. The goal is to solve the puzzle with the fewest rays possible, making it a game of abstract strategy and pattern recognition. With a playtime of just 20 minutes, Black Box is a quick and engaging game that's perfect for one or two players. Its unique blend of secret unit deployment and deduction makes it a fun and challenging experience that will keep you coming back for more.
