Boxville Reviews

Cute machinarium-like point and click adventure. I like to story, the atmosphere.

The game is bad. Glitches, weird confusing bits, bad story, etc. The game is too confusing at times. If you're a point-and-click adventure game enjoyer, this game is not for you. It doesn’t deliver. It’s not what it seems to be. The puzzles are okay at best, and most of them are just confusing. Like, how was I supposed to know that I had to dye a screw yellow so I could bait the bandit robot? How was I supposed to know I was supposed to do that??? Oh, because he was juggling a coin in his hand? Got it. Next, how was I supposed to know that I had to shoot that stupid giant glass bottle that looks like part of the background??? I never use YouTube to help me in puzzle games, but for that one part, I just had to. And I don’t get the part where I have to put the poker chip into the washing machine. IT DOES NOTHING. IT DIDN’T PUSH THE COIN. And after 3 hours of suffering, I see the end cutscene… Oh, so the guy who left the dog INSIDE a washing machine is now sad that he doesn’t have a pet. And he’s jealous that the owner is playing with the dog he left in the washing machine. Then he pulls out a ball. Why didn’t he play fetch with the dog if he had a ball as well???????? Definitely do not recommend. I’m uninstalling the game and removing it from my library. I had Boxville 2 on my wishlist—wouldn’t even try Boxville 2 if it was free. Enjoy the 3.5 euros I could’ve spent at Lidl.

The only point-and-click adventure I've ever played that did not feel frustrating. Storyline is surprisingly good, how everything fits together. Nice animations. Charming in its own unique way.

Almost finished the game, but somehow managed to delete my save. Those icons in the main menu are not obvious at all. Please, do not do this again in your next games. The game is short (without knowing what to do, I almost finished it in 1.5 hour). But it's good. It kinda reminds me machinarium, but it's much more easier then that game. Good game.

Super cute, short, fun point and click game to relax to. The story was beautiful, I love the art style, the puzzles are great but simple. I did accidentally restart my game as the symbols used were a little confusing, could really only make out the setting and exit symbol, so if you are in the middle of a game, don't make the same mistake as me and click something you are unsure about. I will definitely play Boxville 2

A calm, cozy, cute and heartwarming game! The gameplay is about solving puzzles one after another. There are only limited actions you can do and places where you can go, so the game is not too overwhelming. Another good thing is that there is no timepressure or anything scary or disturbing in the game. This is really nice and relaxing. It's important to know that the game uses autosave and there is no text in the game! This means that everything in the game (such as menu and the dialogue) is being presented through images. This style is cute, but also confusing. For example, it's crucial to know that you don't need to save your game and The Star icon in the menu meants Start a New Game. Therefore, if you have played the game and press The Star, this action wipes away your entire progress!! I enjoyed this journey very much. I'm sure that you will, too.

good little game. fun and clever puzzles.

Short game but it was pretty fun. I like puzzle games so I guess for it's price and the length of the play, its good.

Very cute point & click. Love the aesthetic of cardboard houses and soda can people. The puzzles were nice, with some cool minigames to help spice things up. The music was fantastic, with some very calming songs that set the vibe of each scene perfectly.

The illustration style of this game reminded me of Machinarium, so I immediately picked it up. And I am very glad I did. The world is wonderfully imagined. The interactions with the characters and environment leave you wanting to explore even more. (Thankfully, there is a sequel. Hopefully there will be more.) The illustration and animation are so beautiful. The music fits perfectly. And the puzzles are fun. There were also multiple times that I chuckled or laughed out loud. Definitely a great game if you're looking for some smiles in these trying times.
