Orapa Mine

This is the Dutch-language edition. Deep underground, in the largest diamond mine in the world, precious gemstones lie hidden. Your mission? Find them all. In Orapa Mine you do this by sending ultrasonic beams into the ground and reading the signals that come back. That way you discover where the stones are, which way they face and what colour they have. You can play in two ways. With two players it becomes a tense duel. You both hide your gemstones on your own board, and then the trick is to be the first to work out the other player's layout. You take turns asking a question, and every answer brings you a step closer to the solution. If you play with three or more, it turns into a race. One player sets up a layout and the rest search together, so you also listen carefully to the questions and answers of others. The box contains two mini expansions that add an extra twist. The transparent diamond reflects the beams back without changing the colour, while the black emitter swallows the beams completely. So you keep puzzling, combining and surprising each other, whether you are facing one opponent or sitting at the table with a whole group.
