Editorial overview
What it is
Q.U.B.E. is a first person puzzle solving game set in a structure made from white cubes. Coloured cubes in the environment can be manipulated by the player using a pair of technologically enhanced gloves. Using these coloured cubes as tools, the player must complete a series of challenging puzzles.
Created by Toxic Games, Q.U.B.E cleverly integrates a unique visual world and a player’s intuitive physics and visual understanding to create engrossing puzzles.
The premise
Set in a mysterious and abstract sterile environment, Q.U.B.E. (Quick Understanding of Block Extrusion) is a first-person puzzle game that challenges players to navigate each level by manipulating coloured cubes that surround them. There’s little to go on as the game begins – the player is dropped into an all-white room with few instructions, and simply has to figure their way out. The tone of game changes as the player finds small and big alterations to their environment, supported by an original score, inviting each player to let their imagination take over as to where they might be. Through experimentation and discovery, players will progress through an ever-evolving series of cube puzzles that will challenge them with logic, physics, platforming.
