Bye-Bye Boxboy!
Adventure 02 February 2017
Bye-Bye Boxboy! is the third installment of the logical platform game series developed by HAL Laboratory. Just like in the previous games, we play as Qbby, a square character that can replicate his shape. This time, he has to save Qbabies, beings that look like smaller versions of him. As a reward for his help, they will give him additional abilities. The game is made of eighteen diverse locations where we will have to solve logical and environmental puzzles and avoid traps. As we play, we will make a good use of Boxboy's gradually abilities: Boxrocket creates squares with jet engines which will alow our hero to push the buttons that are way above him; Warpbox can teleport him across a short distance. As we progress, we will gain access to additional content. All of that is presented in a rather simple form. The game has clear, cartoonish 2D visuals that work well, though you won't find any visual bells and whistles here.
Boxboy!
Puzzle 02 April 2015
A 2D logic puzzle platform game for Nintendo 3DS. In Boxboy!, you play as a nice, square protagonist called Qbby, who can create exact copies of himself. There are many logic puzzles to complete — in every level, you have to arrange special blocks in a given order to form a certain configuration to progress. There are 17 levels and they vary in terms of challenges. Later levels feature such dangers as lasers or deadly spikes. The biggest challenge in Boxboy!, however, is the fact that there is a limit on how many squares you can create in a single level. Given that every map features special collectibles and that most solutions can only be found by trial and error, you can quickly run out of blocks. Boxboy! features minimalist black-and-white visuals utilizing simple shapes such as squares and triangles.
