I reverse engineered a board game

The author of the blog post 'Reversing the Hitster Game' reverse engineered a popular board game, Hitster, and shared the process in a detailed blog post. The game is a card game where players try to collect sets of cards, with the goal of being the first player to get rid of all their cards. The author used a combination of reverse engineering techniques, including using a logic analyzer to capture the game's microcontroller's communication protocol, and decompiling the game's binary code to understand its internal workings. They were able to identify the game's algorithm and even fix a bug in the game's code, which they reported to the game's developers. The author's work provides a unique insight into the inner workings of a commercially available board game.
