Black Hole Rainbows is a board game project that's already been 2 years in the making! It's a relatively fast-playing game that blends elements of chance and strategy together in a way that builds moments of triumph and defeat and kindness and sabotage that are unique to each group of people playing.
The theme is simple: destroy the Universe to save it.
Each Player has their own Black Hole in front of them. Fill that Black Hole with the full rainbow of quantum energy (Light Stones of every color) and it detonates, flinging all those Stones into Outer Space (the common area between Players) and earning you a Supernova Coin. Your Black Hole is now reset (you've moved on to a new part of the Galaxy) and is ready to refill with Light Stones.
There are other ways to earn Supernova Coins, however, as you'll see in the rules regarding the Supernova Roller and the ever-electrifying Cards that might be played. The player with the most coins at the end of the game, wins.
