Orapa Mine - Board Game (EN)

Description

We have received a mission to search for gemstones in Orapa Mine, the largest diamond mine in the world.
By sending ultrasonic beams deep into the ground and analyzing the returning signals, we can determine the location, orientation, and color of the gemstones. Can you find all the gemstones?

There are two ways to play this game: as a duel with 2 players or as a race with 3 or more players.

With 2 players:
In a duel, both players try to discover the other player's gemstone arrangement as quickly as possible. Both players place their gemstones in a specific arrangement on their board, adhering to certain rules.
Once both players have their arrangement ready, the game begins. During your turn, you can ask 1 of the following 2 questions:

  • If I send a beam from letter ? , where does it end?
  • What is located at position ?? (C2)?

The player answering checks their code and provides the information.
If you think you have found your opponent's arrangement, you can use a turn to guess the solution.
The first player to decipher the location and orientation of all gemstones wins.

With 3 or more players:
In a game with 3 or more players, one player creates an arrangement, and the other players must try to discover it. Players take turns asking a question and processing the answers received (including those of other players!) on their answer sheet.
If you think you have found the arrangement, you can use a turn to guess the solution.

Includes two mini expansions:

Diamond:
The transparent diamond reflects ultrasonic beams in the same way but does not change the beam's color.
Black Emitter:
Black gemstones do not reflect ultrasonic beams but absorb them. There is no endpoint and no color to mention.
