Remember Tamagotchi's? They were cool right? Just wait until you feast your eyes upon the characters found in in Cube World! Cube World is a pixelated world where stick people live, play, interact and pester each other.
Each cube available contains one little pixelated stick man, of which he can do various things from kick ups to juggling and even snake charming! There are four different cube characters to collect in total, of which they all have different hobbies...
Slim plays with a stick,
Dodger enjoys kicking his ball,
Scoop interacts with his dog,
and Whip is a dab hand at rope tricks.
Sounds fun huh? Well what you didn't know (but you're about to) is that each cube has motion detectors on it, so depending on how you treat your stick man and his living area, depends on what he does back. On a really bad day he might even bang his head against the wall! Aw, bless...
And finally the other great thing about this, cubes can interact with cubes! Just put two (or up to 16) together, and as long as they are touching, the characters can leep in to neighbouring screens! Now this is where the real fun starts! The characters can, and probably will, do anything! If they get on well then they might feel like a tug of war, or maybe a game of leap frog, or if they don't get on so well you might find them indulge in a full-on punch up!
Cube World is a great game for hours upon hours of entertaining, with such random behaviour making them so incredibly compelling!
Why is it pointless?
Why would you want a pixelated friend?
Why is it cool?
A pixelated world, with pixelated stick men!
