addedDLCs and bonus levelsThere are several DLCs available in the Collector’s Edition of BLACKHOLE - Testing Laboratory , Challenge Vault , Secret of the Entity and Director’s Cut . You can access all of them right away, but it is highly recommended to complete the main gameplay and story sequence first! Testing Laboratory contains 10 new tests as well as some back story on the Endera mission (and what happened before the events of the main story). Director’s Cut contains 10 difficult levels, which are meant to challenge even the best BLACKHOLE players. Most of these levels were too hard for the main game, so they were replaced by their easier counterparts. But in case you want to really test your skills, try to complete all of them (preferably after you beat the main game)! Challenge Vault is probably the most unique out of these three DLCs - it consists of 15 levels, but each of them can be played only for one week. Your time gets uploaded to in-game leaderboards, where you can compete with all the other players. At the end of the 15th week, the winner gets announced and they become the King of the Vault for that season! Next season of Challenge Vault is going to start very soon, so be sure to participate ! Secret of the Entity will unlock once you finish the main story line. This DLC adds more "end game" content and additional story events. The twelve levels of this DLC are very challenging!
changedLeaderboards and replay systemLeaderboards are not just for Challenge Vault, they are also available in the original game levels! After completing each level (and collecting all selfburns), your time gets uploaded to the global leaderboards. NOTE: If you complete the level under a certain time, you will get a "Coffee Time" award (as shown in the picture). To access the leaderboards, enter the game, pause it and use the in-game menu select “Leaderboards” . The compact version of leaderboards is also shown after you complete a level. Another option is to pause the game while being in a specific level - that way you can quickly open the leaderboards of the current level. You can view your position as well as time of other players. You can also share the replay of your level, if you would like to show others how you have managed to complete it.
