The Gold Magic 800 is a puzzle game developed in Ring, RingAllegro and RingOpenGL. The goal is to move a box around levels to collect gold and open doors by placing the box on them, solving puzzles to progress through 44 levels. Players must plan their route, move directly to targets, consider future moves, avoid and learn from mistakes, and respect the cost to open the first door. The game teaches entrepreneurial thinking and skills like planning, efficiency, foresight, and patience. Screenshots show the level selection screen and an example level with the box and gold to collect.
