Description
The neatest part of this game is that it has a highly rewarding visual element to it compared with other puzzle games. Kids can see their progress by where the end of the laser is, whether it's stuck on an obstacle, hitting a mirror, or finally reaches the goal! Just like the standard version, this puzzle involves guiding a laser to an end destination using doors and mirrors. Certain pieces are set up at the beginning of each scenario, and more are specified as usable objects. Some key changes have been made to accommodate a younger audience: the puzzle grid is now bordered, and the laser is built into the board, decreasing the chance of young children's eyes being directly touched by the laser. Puzzles have also been simplified (though the range from easy to very hard still allows plenty of challenge, even for slightly older children). Finally, the entire board has been stylized with a space theme, calling for a "scientist" to guide the laser around space rocks to ignite one or more rocket ships. With a little bit of hard work, you just might be able to solve all 40 challenges!

Your Mission: Get the laser beam to the rockets so they can safely return to earth! You'll need to use science and logic to reflect the laser beam to the rockets. Carefully place the satellite mirrors to guide your path, but watch out for space rocks that might get in your way.
