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
Rawalls You must place walls between cells in order to "see" the number of cells indicated in each of them
Son'Art Son'Art - This game is originally proposed in the french magazine "La Recherche" (March 2004), I automated it for Pocket PC, add a random generator, give the choice of grid size plus some help to know if a row or column is OK or not (green circle / red cross)
Reflection's matter Reflection's matter - Place the mirrors in the grid, using laser. Laser rays follow the usual reflection law. Diagonal, vertical and horizontal mirrors are possible as well as total reflection (square). There is one absorbing element, without reflection (X). Select the size of the grid and the number of item to place
Box Up Box Up - Your challenge is to use the green pusher (small square) to push the small red box inside the larger blue box.
Boxes can only be pushed from the inside.
Black boxes may help or hinder your progress.
Hint... a small box inside a large box can be pushed together
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)..
