Ever fantasized about the high-stakes life of a postal worker? If the thrill of making lightning-fast deliveries and navigating intense workplace pressure sounds appealing to you, then the upcoming satirical, story-adjacent puzzler Boxbound might be right up your alley.
In Boxbound, you step into the shoes of a postal worker alongside your colleague Peter. The gameplay revolves around stacking uniquely shaped boxes onto a winding grid before setting off on your delivery route through bustling city streets, all while dodging a myriad of obstacles. But the real twist in Boxbound comes from the unexpected events that can throw your day into disarray, from sudden power outages to debris that you'll need to clear from your grid.
And let's not forget, the world outside your delivery truck is constantly in motion. Peter, your trusty co-worker, will keep you updated on the bizarre occurrences that affect your job in increasingly odd and challenging ways.
**Neither snow, nor rain...** That's just the tip of the iceberg. Boxbound boasts an almost endless array of levels and introduces new package shapes as you advance. A quick glance at the trailer hints at the game's quirky, weird, and slightly sinister vibe that awaits players.
Set to launch on March 31st, Boxbound promises a unique charm that will keep you hooked. While the puzzle mechanics alone might not be my cup of tea, the sight of Peter donning vibrant outfits and the suggestion of chaotic, mysterious events unfolding outside—leading you to deliver everything from regular parcels to explosives—piques my curiosity enough to want to dive in and see what the fuss is all about!
