CUBE ROYALE

Move your cubes across the board, unleash powerful items and destroy your opponents.

“CUBE ROYALE” is a battle royale game with turn-based action. Each match begins with a random set of cubes spread out on a grid. You choose a color and take control of the respective cubes, which can then be moved in straight lines. As you take turns, new items are added to the grid. When you move one of your cubes over an item, you can unleash powerful effects. To win the game, you must choose your moves wisely and destroy your opponents’ cubes.

The first few matches of “CUBE ROYALE” can feel overwhelming as you try to explore the (sometimes devastating) effects of different items. The game technically includes a tutorial and small wiki, but the former only introduces the main mechanics and the latter is quite vague. If you manage to get by the phase of trial and error, though, you’re presented with a surprisingly strategic experience.

What we really like about “CUBE ROYALE” is the art style: The graphics are minimalistic, but vibrant animations with generous amounts of screen shake make every move feel impactful. It’s fun to watch cubes explode or morph into other forms. If you like strategic party games and don’t mind the learning curve, you can give “CUBE ROYALE” a try.

Why you should play it:

1. Randomly generated maps and many different items make strategic thinking necessary.
2. The game is easy to pick up, but hard to master.
3. Optionally, you can play in team mode (2 or 3 players) and against bots.

Please note: The game is currently in “Early Access”. The core gameplay feels adequately polished, but there’s a lack of explanation for items and some menus are too complicated. At the moment the game only supports XBOX gamepads in local co-op mode.
