Re: black box iphone puzzle game
It took me a lot of searching to find the game on the app store, but I did and here is all the information in one place:
Blackbox - think outside the box Free - iOS Game
By Ryan McLeod
Blackbox is one of iOS's #1 puzzle games.
Explore 71 unique puzzles (MORE COMING) without touch… Tilt, shout,
click, snap, wait, reflect, and hike your way to success; expand your
creative thinking;
ponder colorful visual clues; discover secrets along the way…
BEAUTIFULLY CLEVER
With ample satisfying "ah hah!" moments and puzzles as artful and
clever as they are challenging, Blackbox is as delightful to play as
it is to look at
and hold.
SATISFYINGLY SURPRISING
Frustrating, fun, and full of surprises… There’s more to Blackbox than
meets the eye. Can you find all the meta challenges?
HINTS
Every challenge has been tuned to be on the cusp of maddening but
always solvable. Some challenges take time, perseverance, and
perspective to understand,
but if you’re really stumped rest assured there are hints. To enjoy
the game to it’s fullest, only use them as a last resort!
LEVEL PACKS
Blackbox is jam-packed with 50 free challenges. Get far enough and
you'll get the option to pay to unlock more advanced challenges and
support the game's
future development (and keep it ad free)!
What's New in Version 1.3.10
(iPad/iPod players please refrain from installing this update! Fix
coming soon.)
So you think Blackbox is hard eh? Have you ever tried playing with
your eyes closed?
This update brings sonic interfaces to Blackbox. An entirely new
dimension of clues and dynamic feedback that infuse new life into all
71 challenges. But
this is about more than replacing the previous few sounds that I made
with my mouth and laptop. Adding these new sonic interfaces, paired
with careful
haptic feedback, and countless accessibility enhancements means
Blackbox is now accessible to almost everyone regardless of their
needs. Did I mention
the sounds are also just wicked cool?
So what’s a sonic interface? Well for the last year nearly 3.5 million
people have played Blackbox solely using their eyes. For the over 258
million people
worldwide with visual impairments, including blindness, the game was
more or less a literal Blackbox. The sonic interfaces paired with
Voice Over and haptic
feedback create an entirely alternative interface for Blackbox that
doesn’t require vision at all. So now, whether you use dynamic type
sizing to read
small text, text-to-speech to to hear content, or are fully blind you
can enjoy the same loving suffering that is Blackbox.
If you have ideas for how to improve the current accessibility
features please don’t hesitate to reach out to me directly at
a...@growpixel.com. Thank
you!
For those of you looking for a new puzzle or two, THANK YOU for being
patient with me and please hang in there. Until then, keep thinking
outside the box,
and talk to you soon!
P.S. Since this version of Blackbox is a re-release for the
accessibility community, the current icon is a throwback to the very
first “Blackbox Red” app
icon
Full release notes are as follows:
Full Voice Over support
Reduced Motion and Switch Control support (in development)
New UI Sounds and challenge sounds (some can only be heard with Voice
Over)
Fixed wormhole animation bug
iOS 9+ is now required to make the new sonic interfaces possible
New Credit screen transition
A puzzle the relies on a real GPS chip no longer shows on devices
without one
Plugged a few minor memory leaks
Improved TouchID animations
Cleaned earwax out of an existing challenge’s ears
over 70 mind puzzles that generally don’t require touch to solve.
Most VO gestures won't do much as the game is all about anything other
than touch for the most part I'll work on making this clearer!
There is a tutorial puzzle.
