The Cube is a puzzle video game both developed and published by British[1] studio Funbox Media. Based on the British game show of the same name, the game released on November 16, 2012, worldwide, for the Nintendo 3DS, the PlayStation 3, and Wii. The game also released on the Nintendo Switch on December 2, 2022.
In The Cube, players navigate through a series of puzzles and obstacles within a cube-like structure. The objective is to escape by progressing through chambers and levels. The gameplay involves solving puzzles, overcoming obstacles, and manipulating the environment to unlock pathways forward. Puzzles vary in type, including logic challenges, spatial problems, and platforming sequences.[2]
Players have to navigate three-dimensional environments and adjust the cube's layout to reveal hidden pathways. Players must also engage in platforming and exploration, avoiding hazards while searching for hidden secrets and collectibles. Difficulty increases gradually as players progress, with puzzles becoming more complex over time. The game features a total of 33 challenges. If the Cube is beaten, Extreme Mode is unlocked, featuring more extreme versions of five games: Revolution, Pathfinder, Perimeter, Rebound, and Momentum.[3]
