QUBE-The Puzzle Game


Toxic Games’s latest launch takes you to a secret passage where you have to work your way down by moving blocks





Q.U.B.E. short form for Quick Understanding of Block Extrusion is the latest launch by Toxic Games. The game takes you to a secret passage from where you will have to find your way by solving puzzles and moving blocks. When you play this game you will experience a sense of nostalgia especially if you have played the Valve game, Portal in the past. However, the games are not similar in any regard except that they look very similar.


Disappointingly, although Q.U.B.E. belongs to the puzzle genre, it fails to create the kind of intriguing and fun world that Portal or Valve created. In Q.U.B.E. there is no story created and therefore you will feel as though you are playing for no reason or goal. Mystery blankets the game right from the beginning, while it may generally be a good thing it somehow does not work in its favor. In the sense, while playing the game you are suddenly introduced to a character without any information such as name or background of the character. You are just able to see the character and therefore have no idea as to why you are there in the first place and what you are supposed to do.


You find yourself waking up in an elevator moving downwards and all you know is that you are slipping on a pair of super-gloves that have penlights at its tips. And then you may find yourself in this sterile facility that has stark white walls. The room is filled with colorful intermittent blocks which can all be handled differently. For instance, the blue blocks can be stepped upon in order to raise it in the air and the red blocks can be raised by touching them with the super-gloves. There is a nice tutorial that the game takes you through. The tutorial explains everything you need to about the game.


Q.U.B.E really shines with its puzzles that have been worked out logically. The puzzles are very challenging to keep you intrigued to continue to the next level, but never a headache to solve. Plus, the game does such a fantastic job in training you on the basics that you will find yourself playing like a pro in no time. You can never get bored with Q.U.B.E. because the puzzles keep changing constantly. You are constantly put through various scenarios, plus new block types are always being introduced in the game play.


Although the game play is really good, the real problem lies within the actual basis of the game itself. You feel lost in the world of this game because there is no personality or basis in the game. The lack of a timer or score keeping board just puts you off and you are left feeling hopeless. The only thing that keeps you intrigues is that what the next puzzle holds for you. But you’re not sure why you are playing the game and solving all the puzzles and where it will lead you eventually.


The only right thing in Q.U.B.E. is its brilliant puzzles. Apart from that there is very little scope of it being a great game. You can play this game if you love solving puzzles but do not expect anything more than that.

Reviews of BomBoozle 2


Bomboozle is the simplest bubble game where if you tag three or more colored balls, you will pop them off and drop down the stacks. If you tag 5 or more you can get a bomb that can be used to explore skull that can be removed only by using bomb.





This game has been divided into three modes: No Restriction, 3 minutes and 100 moves. It is obvious that new levels will add more number of color bubbles and harder skulls that require good explosive bombs to remove them. Each color has some special power that is represented as jar. Every time you hit and pop any specific color, jar representing that color will get little fuller. Once it gets completely filled, you can tap that jar and take some special move. Such color jars have great power like you can detonate all bombs fedrr wtogether; it can flip the screen, and many more things.

Instructions are quite simple, you can look for same colored blobs that are together in a group and can clear them with just couple of clicks or you can hold your mouse button and drag the pointer to make a chain. Try not to make a chain of three blobs as this will drop skull on the board that can only be removed using bomb. New levels will definitely add new color blobs to make every level tricky and hard to win but with new color blobs, you will get new powers too that you can activate and use by filling the pots or jar that are present at the bottom of the screen. Once full, you can use power associated with that jar simply by clicking on it. You can fill jar by destroying 100 blobs of that color. If you fail in making possible moves then your game will come to an end. There are different ways to play Bomboozle 2 so if you have good practice over this game, you can use your own strategy to win this game and can beat your friends.


You will notice a round colorful ball in between blobs that you can use in order to make pair of 4 in order to avoid skull. Suppose if you are making a pair of 3 blobs of green color and next to that pair if you see this colorful ball that will make pair of 4 including it then use this colorful ball as skull will not get added in the screen.
