Think outside the box

Description

So you think you understand this thing you’re holding? Think again. Stop tapping. Stop swiping. In fact, stop touching the screen at all. To crack Blackbox’s puzzles you’ll need to find solitude and stillness, climb mountains, call on friends, get in tune with the cosmos, and think outside the box.

Minimalistic visual clues make for incredibly satisfying “Aha!” moments, while sonic interfaces provide an extra level of guidance and nuance that makes Blackbox accessible with or without vision. Thoughtful haptic feedback, Easter eggs on Easter eggs, and solutions that can’t be found beneath the glass of your screen redefine what a puzzle can be. You’ll never see your device the same way again.

Think you’re clever? Prove it.

(Blackbox is a living game under active development by Ryan McLeod. When not eating burritos or drinking coffee, he’s busy designing and developing new Blackbox challenges.)

What’s New

Version 2.2.13

This is a hotfix! iOS 17.4.1 broke some stuff, but I fixed it (hotly)

■ Fixed a certain double dark-teal challenge that was crashing on launch.

If you lost progress or anything from reinstalling the game trying to fix this, first of all please stop doing that, and second please email me if I can maybe help ryan@growpixel.com

Editors’ Notes

The most ingenious thing about Blackbox’s puzzles isn’t that you solve them without tapping or swiping. It’s that you’ll happily spend hours figuring out the game’s subtle clues. Do you need to tilt your iPhone, shout into the speaker or do something a lot trickier? Thinking creatively and finding the answer feels deeply rewarding, even profound—earning Blackbox an Apple Design Award.

Something for me

Electronic devidec and product from Apple have lot of option to set up and try or use. This app force you to do most of them with puzzle logic. I have it at phone for long time and sometimes i like to go back and try to figure out another puzzle.
This game reminds me another similar game for OSx called Progress, witch I recommend as well.
