User Reviews on Black Box Battle
Looking for more information? Read a comprehensive review of Black Box Battle below:
It would be nice to have an option for the number of balls. In high school many years ago we built a board with 16 on a side, but nobody around to play against. Any chance this could get an option for 10 on a side? That and increased number of balls would be awesome!
We enjoy the challenge of finding 4 randomly placed balls. However, the creators of this version place the balls strategically in almost geometric patterns that you can usually figure out after two moves. Gets a bit boring. We wish the targets were more random.
We had this board game back in the 70s and loved it, so we were very excited when we found this app that plays just like the board game. Its a game of hide and seek, and provides a great challenge. Someone commented something about weird symbols being used, which must pertain to the white zodiac symbols. However, if you understand the concept of the game, the symbols make perfect sense because they help indicate where the beam would enter and where it would exit on deflection. This is exactly what we were like looking for!!!
Our hubs family played this board game a ton and they loved it! We found this app and now they are all playing again. Yes – the help is a tad confusing. If the same symbol appears on the 2 sides when you launch a laser you know the laser has been deflected or reflected and the matching symbols let you deduce the path of reflection. The laser only has to hit a corner to be deflected. We cant really figure out the 2 person option so thats kinda confusing but otherwise its same as the board game and really fun! We had one today that had reflected off 6 corners so the path was crazy! Very challenging.
But we think it would be more interesting if it were bigger. Lasers would bounce around more. Its cool when the laser makes several contacts before it exits. It fun to test your hypothesis by sending a shot that would bounce off ALL the supposed objectives an confirm your outcome.
It’s a fun logic game, but it could use some options, such as increase number of balls, bigger box, difficulty settings, etc. If those were added, it would be a 5-star game for sure!
If you know what the Black Box game is then you’ll know how to play this game. If you’re unfamiliar with it you will become confused and give a poor review, but this is unnecessary. The rules are posted online as well as on Wikipedia. Nice puzzle game – good for exercising your deductive reasoning.
This game uses the famous black box as a basis, but is only partially implemented. There are strange symbols of unknown meaning. The "help" is a simple text that does not, apparently, describe the game. The only controls seem to be the help and sound mute. We can’t find any other controls. This game is obviously written by someone just learning to code and it shows. We do not know how stable this game is as we were so frustrated at the lack of controls and feedback we stopped. We are glad we did not pay any money for this.
We loved the board game, and have been waiting for this app. Very nice!
