Boxes Review
By GmMkr on 06 December 2009


Pros: Gameplay, quality, graphics, sophistication, achievements, colors, options, menu, visual effects, variety, cleanliness.

Cons: Tiny bugs: explained in the Full Review.

Perfect!

Let me start off with the bugs, that way you can finish reading this with the smile you deserve. :]

As soon as Classic Mode begins there is a SLIGHT possibility of beginning with a Wave. Now, this doesn't seem to be a problem. However, you can start off with the wave of bombs. It's impossible to survive that wave because even if you jump at the explosion, there's no ground to land on.

Suggested Solution: Use the ground that's used in Extreme Mode.

Another bug that happens (I don't know how to recreate it): Sometimes when the camera moves up and a few blocks land and then you fall back down and the camera moves down, some blocks stay floating in midair. So yea...

Anyways, those are the only two bugs that I noticed. Here's the review part:

Graphics: Simplistic yet perfect. When I say perfect I don't mean that I've never seen better, I mean that they fit the game perfectly. Better graphics would have overdone it. The game is beautiful and simplistic. And for this, you get 5/5 stars. :]

Sound: Very catchy, it matches the pace of the game. I give you major points for including a mute button. I believe all games should have one. All of the sounds were very nicely put and they all actually matched the graphics of the game. I love how the music slows down when you slow down time. You thought of everything and once again you get 5/5 stars.

Gameplay: One word: Flawless. Every jump was perfect, every powerup did what it was supposed to do, everything was smooth (how many FPS is this game set to?), everything was fluid. 5/5

Story: There was none so N/A. Don't worry, this won't affect the overall rating I give you.

Interface: Amazing! The menu was beautifully executed. I knew where everything was. It was nice and polished and everything was in its place. The buttons for movement are easy to guess and you gave people a choice. 5/5

Overall: This game shows that a lot of time was put into it. And with so much time put into it, I thought it deserved a nice review. As thorough as I can give. In this game one can unlock achievements, player colors, and do much more. The physics are nicely executed. The game looks wonderful. The visuals are very pleasing. All in all, everything was thought of and put into place.

I rate this game a 5/5 without a single doubt on my mind.

I guess the most amazing part of this game is its wonderful ability to make one an addict. I play this almost every day!

Wonderful game. :]

5/5!
