That’s a good thing, too, because BoxBoy! + BoxGirl! tells a beautiful, minimalist story that can appeal to everyone. Like everything else, it’s brilliance is in its simplicity: the box people’s home planet finds itself attacked by a strange black fog that’s seemingly turning people to stone, so Qucy and Qbby set out to find the cause and stop it. That’s pretty much the extent of it, but the wordless exchanges between characters and the surprising conclusion wind being far more emotive than you’d expect. BoxBoy! + BoxGirl! is proof that you don’t need thousands of polygons and en…

With pure, uncut puzzle fun and lots of it, the newest and biggest BoxBoy adventure is also the best.

BoxBoy never seemed like the kind of game that would develop into a series. When HAL Laboratory debuted BoxBoy on the 3DS back in 2015, this quirky puzzle platformer with low-fi graphics seemed like an experimental one-off that had somehow squeaked through the greenlight process. Since then, this little square-jawed hero has proven he's more than a one-hit wonder. For his fourth outing, BoxBoy is joined by BoxGirl and the tall box, Qudy, for a couch co-op friendly adventure filled with some of the most creative and diverse puzzles in the series.

BoxBoy! + BoxGirl! takes the puzzler series to new heights with the first Switch BoxBoy! entry. With an innovative spin in the form of fresh new mechanics and the playable inclusion of another loveable boxy character, this eShop title will brighten up any puzzle fan’s day.

BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL! is another great HAL Laboratory offering with only a few small missteps that keep it from being a perfect example of how to make a puzzle platformer. Everything else is great, though, and if you need another game to add to your growing Switch collection, you really can't go too wrong here – especially if you've got another BOXBOY or BOXGIRL in your life you want to share this adrenaline-pumping boxy adventure with.

What a great game! I was always keen when I saw this was up for review so up shot the hand for the chance to check it out. I love puzzling platform games no

BoxBoy+BoxGirl is a successful and enjoyable puzzler with enough new additions in co-op and the rectangular box segments to feel fresh and new. While some aspects of BoxBoy’s design are well-worn and overdone in the fourth entry, the entire package is endearingly charming with its minimalist presentation and clever twists that make most retread portions mere bumps in the road that don’t detract from the overall fun.

Boxboy has to be the cutest little cube that no one thought we’d see again. After a few successful, if overlooked, games, Boxboy has once again returned for his fourth outing and his Nintendo Switch debut. And not since the launch of Tetris 99 have any of us been so excited to influence our control over a series of blocks. Boxboy! + Boxgirl! is the same blocky puzzle concept as the previous game, but with brand new stages, and a unique two-player campaign that’s sure to bring smiles to faces.

Qbby is back! But this time he isn’t alone. He has Qucy by his side to save the world from meteorites of sludge. Will you save the world with them? Let’s se

Nintendo loves to release a small, harmless puzzle game whenever there are no plans of releasing a brand new Switch game at any given month. Snipperclips, Battle Sports Mekuru and the re-release of the mediocre Captain Toad are a few examples of that trend. Those are games that don’t feature fantastic graphics or sound, have simplistic gameplay, and are well-suited for the Switch’s portability since they’re best enjoyed in short sessions. The same can be said about BoxBoy + BoxGirl!, a ...

Boxboy + Boxgirl takes one of Nintendo’s best puzzle games and makes it even bigger and better for the Nintendo Switch.

When the Boxboy series first broke onto the scene back in 2015 on the Nintendo DS,  it innovated a new and interesting way of puzzles in gaming. It took a simple art style and easy enough concept and accelerated it to 100, finding bizarre ways for the user to use what would otherwise be a surface level mechanic. This mechanic was simple but interesting, being sprouting other boxes off of a character to go around obstacles and levels.  In this it introduced a charming little boxed character ...
