Ever dreamt of being a postal worker, navigating the nerve-wracking stress of making speedy deliveries under intense pressure? If that sounds appealing to you, then the upcoming satirical, story-adjacent puzzler Boxbound might just be your next gaming obsession.
In Boxbound, you'll take on the role of a postal worker alongside your fellow employee, Peter. The gameplay revolves around stacking differently-shaped boxes onto a winding grid before you hit the city streets to make your deliveries. But it's not just about the boxes; you'll need to dodge obstacles and manage unexpected challenges like power outages and debris that you'll have to sweep away to clear your path.
What sets Boxbound apart is the dynamic world outside your delivery truck. As you work, the world around you is constantly in motion, with your friend Peter keeping you updated on the bizarre and ever-changing events that impact your job in increasingly strange ways.
Neither snow, nor rain... And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Boxbound boasts a functionally limitless number of levels and an array of new package shapes to unlock as you progress. The trailer alone hints at the game's whacky, weird, and somewhat sinister atmosphere.
Set to release on March 31st, Boxbound promises a unique charm that will keep players hooked. While the gameplay might not be everyone's cup of tea, the sight of Peter donning colorful outfits and the chaotic, strange events outside, including shipping explosives, piques curiosity. It's a game that you just have to experience to understand.
