What Blackbox is

Blackbox is a puzzle game developed by Ryan McLeod and released in 2017. It is available on iOS only.

The premise, in the publisher's words

So you think you understand your device? 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. 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.
