About
This is a game about boxes! Where you play as a box, summoning boxes, while learning about boxes and all their useful uses. Will you accept our cardboard overlords? Will you not do that?.. It's up to you I guess.
A GAME ABOUT BOXES is a short platformer based story where you interact with the games narrator whilst learning all about boxes and their useful usefulness. As you make choices whether to follow the narrators instructions or delve into its frustrations you'll discover multiple endings and secrets whilst deciding your little boxes fate.
Enjoy the hollow, empty atmosphere, accompanied by original ambience and music including "Eating Chicken Almonds and Rice" by ACardboardBox, "Forest Noise" by ACardboardBox and hit song "Unpalpable Joy" by ACardboardBox.

A Game About Boxes (2026, разработчик — A Cardboard Box) — инди‑платформер с элементами симулятора и головоломки. Суть: играть за коробку, преодолевать препятствия, взаимодействовать с рассказчиком и принимать решения — от них зависят концовки. Ключевые особенности: жанр: 2D‑платформер, приключение, головоломка; геймплей: прыжки, перемещение, призыв ящиков для решения задач; стиль: минимализм с нарастающей сюрреалистичной/жуткой атмосферой; выбор решений → последствия и несколько концовок; платформа: PC (Windows); модель: бесплатная; достижения: есть в Steam; саундтрек: оригинальный, атмосферный. Минусы: короткие мигающие эффекты (риск для эпилептиков); потенциально тревожные темы; простая графика. Итог: необычная атмосферная игра с оригинальным концептом — подойдёт любителям инди, сюрреализма и нестандартных платформеров.
