BlackBox is a game that is a cross between Minesweeper and Mastermind. There are a certain number of atoms hidden in a grid and you must fire X-rays from the side and according to the response (deviation, reflection, absorption). Find out the hidden atoms in the 8x8 grid using X-rays. X-rays interacts with atoms:
- 90° reflected on the edge
- absorbed if it directly hits X-rays get in/out on the edges:
- shown by colored disk pair
- black disk if absorbed
- white disk if reflected: input and output are the same. X-ray may be directly reflected by an atom on the edge of the grid.
Carefully look X-ray trajectory using the following example. Try by clicking the edges. Game with 3 atoms is very easy.
In games with 6 atoms, it is possible that an atom cannot be reached by an X-ray. Update Description:

Magnets Magnets- a game originally proposed in the french magazine "La Recherche", end of 2003. I automated the game on Pocket PC, with a random generator to get more grids to find. I also added some visual help to show rule violations, which is finally funnier because it's hard to see on a paper. Game is freeware, enjoy! Rules:
- Each magnets uses two white blocks
Newborn Newborn - the classical memory game, where you have to find the paired images.
It is possible to display all the cards during a short time at the beginning, to limit the effects of luck. Try different image sets, and check which set gives you the best result!
Why this name Newborn? because one image set is particularly efficient with newborn babies (or adults)..
