Ricochet

Ricochet is a 1-player strategy game for the 8-bit Atari computer.

Hidden within an 8 x 8 grid lies 5 hidden objects. The player fires a beam into the grid from 32 separate positions, and must determine the location of the objects by the output. If the beam aligns directly with an object, it is absorbed. If a beam is fired adjacent to an object, it is reflected away by 90 degrees. Beams continue to ricochet until they exit the grid or are absorbed. At the end of the game, the player is shown the true location of items.
