Boxes: Lost Fragments Reviews

A pretty solid puzzle box game, with some issues. Overall I enjoyed the puzzles, but in many of the later levels I found myself frustrated because I was missing a small switch or lever which was necessary to progress. The hint system highlights a next step region, so it was a big help in these moments. I like how every level gives you a single item you need in the chapter hub, it gave it a sense of continuity that would otherwise be lacking. I found the final 4 levels to be disappointing aesthetically. Most of the game is vaguely aristocratic european styled, but then the final levels are viking, aztec, egyptian, and japanese ... tomb robbery themed puzzles? This is also where the magic gets most explicit and I was really getting ancient aliens vibe when the crystals power on the pyramid and open a portal. None of the aztec stuff was labelled with real names, just 'aztec artefact' as an item. It felt appropriative.

Fun puzzle game, if you liked the Room puzzle games you will enjoy this.

Nice and relatively straight forward puzzle game. The best parts are the intricate boxes and how they evolve and move.

Beautiful graphics, challenging puzzles. Loved it.

Really fun puzzles that aren't too hard and a nice story hope we get another game like this.

If you like limited puzzle box games this is great. I wish it had multi games, but maybe add on's to come.

i really want to recommend this game but just can't. It is a beautiful game but the puzzles were just too easy. 4.5 hours to get through everything was just too fast and the story seemed more of an afterthought instead of a driving reason to figure out the puzzles. If you can get it on sale then maybe it is OK for a quick distraction.

Great game! Puzzle difficulty varies a bit but most of them are on the easy side. The animations are amazing though! Definitly worth playing.

A simpler version of The Room, but I honestly think they ran out of imagination half way into the game as many of the puzzles were not really puzzles, but a sequence of steps you do without the problem solving element.

Short, but very good. And dear gods is it beautiful. From start to finish, the gorgeous visuals and animation were what kept me playing. The puzzles aren't terribly complex. If you're looking primarily for a brain challenge, this might not be your thing. But the clever mechanics, hidden catches and switches, are perfect for anyone who appreciates just a perfectly-crafted [i]contraption.[/i] Finished it one sitting, and there's not a lot of replay to it. But like going and seeing a good movie, the game will stick with me for a while.
