I tried playing a board game `` Meteorite '' with a new sense that does not stop pounding just by placing a super strong magnet in the recess
Released in May 2019 the magnet action game 'Samurai stone (magnet)' is now a hot topic around the Internet in a simple game content that only we put the magnet in the recess of the sponge. I actually played what kind of game it is like 'a game that can be hooked just by arranging magnets'.

The following movie is where I actually played 'Meteorite' with two people. The magnet stones (magnets) are arranged carefully in the recesses so that they do not stick together. The magnetic force of the magnet stone is very strong, and it ’s hard to beat! With the sound, the magnets will stick together.

The “Meteorite” package looks like this. Below the title is a magnet that scatters white electric sparks and collides with the words, “Experience the power you cannot see!” Or “Your intelligence and the magnetic force of Stone!
“Meteorite” uses a powerful magnet, so the target age is set to 14 years old or older. In addition, cautionary notes in case of accidental ingestion were well written.
Contents include rule manual, force field game base, storage bag, 18 magnet stones. In addition, the rule manual says, “Imagine yourself as a master of martial arts, a strong samurai or ninja from the past. You have some other“ super ”ability that can overwhelm the enemy. 'Do you have it?' There was a mysterious
The Force Field game base looks like this. A simple plastic case contains a sponge used for cushioning.
The insole of the indented sponge is quite soft and dents with just a little finger press.
On the side of the force field game base, it is quite difficult to see the following images, but when you look closely, it was written in romaji as “JISHAKU”. 'Soseki' was originally a board game born in Germany and sold overseas as 'Jishaku'.
And magnet stone looks like this. It looks like a shiny pebbles, and there are no 18 sizes and shapes. In addition, the N pole and S pole of the magnet cannot be judged from its appearance.
The magnet stones felt quite heavy when held in hand, so when we actually weighed them, the total of 18 pieces was 342g. The weight per magnet stone is 19g on average.
The magnetic force of the magnet stone is strong, and a considerable amount of force is required to peel off the stuck magnet stone. In the following movie, two magnet stones are brought close to each other, and you can see how the magnet stones stick together vigorously just by bringing them about 5-6 cm.
There are three games for two players introduced in the rules manual, and I tried to play the simplest 'Ichinuke!' First, distribute 9 magnet stones to each player.
All you have to do is place the magnets in the recesses in the Forcefield game base. The player who has used all the magnetic stones in his hand and used up first will win.
The following is the scene where the player on the right hit the turn. I am thinking of placing a magnet stone in the indentation in the red frame.
The moment the magnet stone is gently placed in the recess, the magnet stone underneath changes direction as it reacts to the magnetic force.
The player slowly put a magnetic stone and gently released his hand ...
When I think that the surrounding magnet stones have moved steadily, it's a buzz! I stuck with a noise.
Collect the stones that were placed as a penalty and the stuck stones at hand.
The strategy of this game can be said to be 'how to place' rather than 'where to place'. When placing a magnet stone in the recess, you must be aware of the shape and size of the magnet stone and the orientation of the S and N poles, not thinking about it. Also, if the magnet stones are placed wildly, the sponge will be shaken by the impact, and the magnet stones already placed will stick together. Carefully observing the movement of the magnet stone around the place you want to place it, carefully placing the magnet stone at hand is the key to victory.
The following movie was taken near the place where magnet stones are arranged. Although it is not transmitted in a movie, the hand that pinches the magnet stone is subjected to the force of the magnet attracting or repelling, and the invisible magnetic field formed by multiple magnet stones is felt on the skin.

“Soseki” can be played solo, and when playing alone, it is a very simple rule: “Challenge how many Magnet Stones can be placed on the Forcefield game base”. The following movie shows a challenge to the solo play of “Soseki”.

“Meteorite” is an insanely simple game in which magnets are placed alternately. However, it is necessary to consider the position and placement of magnet stones, and delicate operations are required. Even if you try to put the magnet gently while holding your breath unintentionally, if it fails, it makes a loud noise and the magnet sticks vigorously. The editorial staff who played said, “It is required to be delicate enough to pass the thread through the needle, and a tremendous sense of tension strikes every turn,” and it seemed that he was playing with considerable excitement. There is almost no preparation for the game, and anyone can understand the rules immediately, so even beginners can play immediately.
On the other hand, because it is a rule that is too simple, it is not exciting as a competitive game. There are four types of game rules prepared in advance, including solo play, but only the score calculation and victory conditions are different, and the basics of how to proceed with the game are the same. “Meteorite” requires delicate work in a tremendous sense of tension, so you may feel like you are playing and doing a kind of training, and there is a stoic game. Actually, “Soseki” solo play has something simple but quite difficult, but I felt that the mysterious depth of the game was created by the irregular magnetic field created by the various magnet stones.
'Meteorite' is handled by Amazon.co.jp and can be purchased for 2571 yen.
