PUZZLE / WEB-NATIVE

Black Hole Square.

Clear the other squares from a small abstract universe. Black Hole Square introduces its behavior through tapping, letting you observe a compact board before taking another action. The creator also documents swipe gestures for restarting, revisiting and skipping puzzles.

Give the first tap a question

The creator deliberately invites experimentation. Choose a square because you want to learn what it changes, then follow the result across the board. This makes a restart useful: you can compare a second opening against the same initial arrangement instead of tapping without a hypothesis.

Separate a reset from a skip

The two swipe directions serve different purposes. Returning to the start is useful when you understand a mistake and want to replay an opening; skipping lets you inspect another puzzle when you need a change. Read the resulting screen so a navigation gesture is not mistaken for a board interaction.

Keep bonus access in context

The competition description mentions three bonus puzzles connected to web monetization. That historical description does not establish that the original payment mechanism still works in your browser. Start with the public game and evaluate the available puzzle set directly; this guide makes no purchase or bonus-unlock promise.
