BlackBox
By clicking the "BlackBox" button, the game "BlackBox" opens.
You can close this window with the red X at the top right in the corner. The context aid is obtained by clicking on the blue question mark.
With the tool configuration you can insert or hide the tools in the toolbar.
The game
The aim is to find out which positions the five atoms sit. To do this, you can send rays into the BlackBox (click on the circles at the edge) with the results of which you should determine the positions.
The beams are deflected or absorbed on each atom (by 90 degrees). A beam can be deflected several times in the BlackBox! There are several possibilities that can be distinguished by the colors in the clicked circle:
GRAU (= absorption)
The beam strikes exactly one atom and is absorbed. It no longer comes out of the box (in the example: beam at 12 or not shown 4/9/30 etc.).
WEISS (= reflection)
The beam leaves the box again at the clicked place. This may have two reasons:
- The beam cannot enter the box, i.e. next to the clicked field there is an atom (in the example: 31 or not shown 3/24/7).
- The beam runs between two atoms. This corresponds to two deflections and the beam is just reflected (in the example: 8 or not shown 18).
FARBEN (= distraction)
The remaining colors indicate beam inputs and outputs. A beam can pass through the box or be deflected as often as desired (in the example: 14->2, 19->28, 21->10, 26->25).
The points
The aim is to achieve a minimum number of points! Each colored point outside counts one, and every false tip in the middle five points. Try it. just to guess all five atoms blindly and after dissolving with "solve" has no hit, you reach (bad) 25 points.
An excessively poor cut with very high number of games can lead to ascent locks, as with many singleuser games!
