Fingle vs Blackbox

Explore the intimate touch of each others fingers with Fingle's two-player puzzles. Break the ice or engage friends to get awkwardly close. Two players drag up to five buttons of one color onto their matching targets; their movement makes it impossible to avoid contact, creating intimate moments with intertwined hands. SWEAT IT - More than 130+ levels in total, designed to bend both your fingers and brain. GROOVE IT - Music and visuals straight from the 70's to get you in the mood. FEEL IT - The perfect game for breaking the ice, bringing friends closely together, having moments of roaring laughter or kick-starting a romantic evening. USE IT - Use the full potential of the iPad and play with ten fingers! Note: To use more than 2 fingers in all your Apps, turn off Multitasking Gestures in your General Settings.

So you think you understand this thing you’re holding? 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. Minimalistic visual clues make for incredibly satisfying “Aha!” moments, while sonic interfaces provide an extra level of guidance and nuance that makes Blackbox accessible with or without vision. Thoughtful haptic feedback, Easter eggs on Easter eggs, and 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. Think you’re clever? Prove it. (Blackbox is a living game under active development by Ryan McLeod. When not eating burritos or drinking coffee, he’s busy designing and developing new Blackbox challenges.) ■
