Cosmic Ray Burst: a board game for cosmic particle acceleration

Edited by Giannandrea Inchingolo and Rachele Toniolo for INAF - National Institute of Astrophysics and GAME Science Research Center

Cosmic Ray Burst is a board game developed by the National Institute of Astrophysics, designed for girls and boys ages 10 and up. In the game you pilot cosmic ray particles through magnetic fields and other scenarios in the universe to accelerate them to maximum energy, trying not to collide with other particles in the process. Beware, however, that the particles are not all the same, and they will have different behaviors.
