Blackbox is a mysterious puzzler that came out of nowhere and could be this week's sleeper hit. It's an iPhone (as in, not universal) puzzler in which you need to turn on the lights.

In order to do so, you'll have to use your wits and everything your phone has to offer in over 50 totally unique puzzles.

Some even uses 3D touch though that's not mandatory.

Curious? Good. Watch the trailer:

I know you probably won't understand the gameplay from the trailer and that's fine, this is intentional.

This is one of those games that you have to discover by yourself, free of spoilers that might otherwise give everything away. Just like the amazing Progress to 100.

You might not like it and you might get stuck on the first level. But if you know you like puzzles and don't like hand-holding, give Blackbox a try, it might delight you.
