Description
What if a game was nothing more than a peaceful place where curiosity was rewarded?
Blackbox, the evolution of the Apple Design Award winning puzzle game for iOS, leaps beyond your fingertips, through the confines of glass, and into your home and being. Poke bubbles, ponder puzzles, and let the rest gently unfold around you. Become enveloped in reactive visuals, perplexing sounds, and perhaps find something profound.
Blackbox is an open-ended experience under active development. We’re hard at work on new curiosities and will continue to expand the game throughout the year. Supporting our small team’s work today gives you early-access to everything we’ve currently built and will eventually include in the base game.
We’re just getting started and endlessly thankful for your support.
We can’t wait to show you what we’ve built and what we have in store,

What’s New
Version 1.5
■ More Natural Gestures
We re-wrote our gesture system to allow for super fluid rotation. Pick up almost anything in the game and check it out from every angle. Get up close and personal with each challenge bubble, dropped words, or that strange object you pulled from the ether…
■ More realistic occlusion
In our quest for puzzle perfection, now when a puzzle is partially behind a wall or you leave a bubble in another room, you can’t see it! This even works for weird cubes that seem to be following you around every corner …curious.
Thank you for your support and kind reviews!

Ratings and Reviews
One of the best digital experiences I’ve had
I have only experienced this feeling of nirvana after a game a few times. This game’s attention to detail with the way objects behave, the way the sounds make everything *feel*, the *redacted* after completing all the levels gives me eerie goosebumps no matter how many times I open the app. With the latest update with the new levels, it gives me so much hope and excitement for new levels in the way that only the OG Blackbox gave me when new levels would drop. The way that the dev finds all the little features of the platform and make you think in creative ways to solve puzzles….. it feels like one of the purest forms of human curiosity I’ve experienced on a digital platform. Dev… thank you for sharing this with us 🙏
Context: I am a diehard iOS Blackbox player. I have gotten many people to download and play and get addicted to the OG Blackbox so I may be just a bit biased. But trust when I say this game truly is sick.
Developer Response ,
Toni, thank you so, so much for this. It means the world to us and is beyond motivating to see someone get and appreciate what we're trying to make. Support like yours makes it all possible.
Keep thinking outside the box!

A glimpse at the future
This is easily the most creative game on Vision Pro. The puzzles can be simple or challenging, but all of them are very fun and visually satisfying and take full advantage of the unique capabilities of the device. This is the game to show friends that want to see a glimpse of the future, as this is an experience that simply can’t be replicated on previous gaming platforms. The only downside is there are a limited number of puzzles and I wish there were so many more. But it seems like the developer is committed to adding new puzzles through updates and the latest update did indeed add two great new additions, one of which i kept playing around with long after I solved the puzzle. 🦔
Developer Response ,
I think I know which one you're talking about playing long after :) Me too!
Thanks so much for the early support and trusting us. We're having a lot of fun exploring what feels properly like Blackbox in your space and are learning loads! 🍏 Here's a snack for your pet!
The best game ever but……
This game is very good. I mean a lot better than most of the games for Apple Vision Pro! I didn’t have this much of fun or last time when I opened a game. But the biggest cross here is the price! If you’d make it free, the game will feel and look better for those who doesn’t have moneyI appreciate your game and I will be happy if you will answer me! I have this game on my phone and I kept saying only that it’s one of the best games I ever seen! Thank you for this indulgent experience.❤️
