BOXBOY! Review

By Ryan Bates

This box rox my sox.

Leonardo da Vinci once said, “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” Leonardo the Ninja Turtle once said, “Cowabunga!” I believe I said both at some point while playing BOXBOY!, the clever and addicting puzzler whose simplistic design challenges you with the not-so-simple task of getting from Point A to Point B.

  • Simple, yet challenging design.
  • Thoroughly addictive.
  • Solving the game's puzzles is immensely satisfying, and makes you crave for more.
  • Qbby is cute -- there, I said it -- and the story is adorable.
  • Black and white graphics and simple mechanics sing a love song to the original Game Boy.

I'm currently based out of Las Vegas, NV (no I don't gamble all the time or live in a hotel on the strip) but I'm a So Cal kid through and through. I'm a Nintendiehard -- I stand by my man -- but I'm a fan of games no matter what the console, including Steam. RPGs, fighting, and action/adventure are my fortes. Give me a great story and characters any day. Call of Duty? I guess, if that's your thing. Classic Final Fantasy and Zelda? Now you're cookin' with gas!

When I'm not gaming, I like culinary adventures, moviegoing, and the Intert00bz. Ask me about my favorite web shows! I can get down on some anime, my favorite sports are boxing and baseball, and I can even get in tune with that parapsychological vibe, even though it's well-known and well-documented I'm kinda a pansy with horror stuff. (I think they get a kick out of assigning me those games for review.)

I'm also single and available, but sorry gamer girls, I play with joysticks.
