About this game

Boxville is 2-in-1: an animated film and a puzzle game.

Boxville is an adventure puzzle game about speechless cans living in the city of boxes and drawing doodles on cardboards to tell the stories.
Boxville is good for playing alone to dive into the atmosphere and challenge your brain with sophisticated logic puzzles and riddles, or playing with a friend or family to share unique audio-visual experiences and solve the puzzles together.

Design
The core idea of the game is that it’s not just a game - but also an animated film that you can watch and play at the same time.
We designed Boxville’s gameplay with the purpose of taking away your anxiety and stress. You can explore and observe the world without rushing and pressure.
The game is full of environmental quests and logical puzzles that we have carefully picked from among hundreds of options.

Story
Boxville is a city of boxes populated with old cans. They live quiet and happy lives with their everyday routines and habits. But one day, unexplained earthquakes disturbed their idyll...
Blue Can (our hero) lost his best friend because of that. He started his search but it is not so easy to move through the city after earthquakes. He has to find a way to move forward, return the friend back home and discover the real reason for all those earthquakes. There are many adventures, new friends and it’s not only friends that are waiting for him on the way.
He has to be curious, inventive, careful, and to help others, to reach his goal.

Ratings and reviews

Was a nice short game, good graphics. Needs SOME text, half the time the picture clues make little sense alone without text and many items were so small with no text description. If you were lucky enough to find and pick them up then you still don't know what it is or does. This is hard to play on phone with no text description help.

A few instances of puzzles that were hard to figure out, like needing to click again in the washing machine and the menu not having any words is not great, I accidentally restarted the game and lost my progress trying to figure out what the icons meant, I thought I was saving. Other than that though, a very nice little game, reminiscent of Machinarium. Worth the money.

Love it! There are bugs (playing on Samsung S20 FE), and one stops progress if you don't know: **SPOILERS** Coin laundry puzzle fails to display down arrow a second time when reaching for the coin. Only shows up arrow to back out of first down you clicked. You can still click downwards, but it makes it seem like you can't. **** In the same room, I've already collected the wire basket and finished the related puzzle, but I collect it again out of thin air at the base of the same machine above.
