Played solo. Fairly short with just 4 levels; 5 if you include the hub. But they are challenging solo, especially if you are looking to get everything. Worth the money if you get it on sale.

相当不错的游戏,一个人玩最简单,多人协作会增加游戏难度。可是为什么没有成就的攻略。感觉玩这个的人好少。
Esta buenisimo 100% recomendado, se lo pueden terminar en una tarde
This game was fun. My husband and I love local co-op games and this was a great playing experience. Finding all the collectables was really difficult with no hints given to where the missing ones are.

Pile Up! Box by Box, developed by Seed by Seed and published by HandyGames, is a cooperative 3D puzzle-platformer that embraces simplicity and creativity as its core strengths. Set in a handcrafted world made entirely of cardboard and paper-like materials, it delivers a relaxed, family-friendly experience centered on teamwork, exploration, and playful problem-solving. Rather than focusing on difficulty or technical mastery, it prioritizes accessibility and shared enjoyment, making it approachable for a wide range of players. The gameplay revolves around controlling small box-shaped characters known as Boxlings, who can lift, carry, and stack objects to navigate the environment. This central mechanic is both intuitive and flexible, allowing players to build makeshift paths, bridges, and platforms to overcome obstacles. Most puzzles are designed with multiple possible solutions, encouraging experimentation rather than rigid problem-solving. This openness gives the game a creative feel, where players are free to approach challenges in their own way rather than being guided toward a single correct answer. Cooperation is at the heart of the experience. While the game can be played solo, it is clearly designed with multiplayer in mind, supporting up to four players in local co-op. Many puzzles are structured to encourage collaboration, requiring players to coordinate actions, share resources, or physically assist one another by stacking or lifting. This creates a dynamic where communication becomes just as important as execution, often leading to moments of both success and lighthearted chaos. The social aspect significantly enhances the experience, turning simple tasks into engaging group activities. The world itself is structured as a series of interconnected areas, each with its own visual theme and set of challenges. Players explore colorful environments ranging from forests and beaches to theatrical stages, helping characters and unlocking new paths along the way. The narrative is minimal and largely serves as a backdrop, allowing the focus to remain on exploration and interaction. Progression is steady and easy to follow, ensuring that players can move through the game without unnecessary confusion or interruption. Visually, the game stands out through its cohesive art direction. Everything is designed to resemble real-world craft materials, giving the environments a tactile, handmade quality. This aesthetic is consistent throughout, creating a charming and distinctive atmosphere that complements the game’s tone. The soundtrack and sound design are similarly understated, providing gentle support that enhances the relaxed pacing without drawing too much attention. The puzzles themselves are intentionally accessible. Most challenges rely on understanding how to use the stacking mechanic effectively, with only occasional moments requiring precise timing or coordination. This makes the game suitable for younger players or those new to the genre, but it also means that experienced players may find the difficulty lacking. The emphasis is clearly on enjoyment and creativity rather than challenge, which shapes the overall experience. Additional content comes in the form of collectibles and small minigames scattered throughout the levels. These elements add variety and encourage exploration, though they are relatively simple and do not significantly expand the gameplay. They serve more as optional diversions than as core features, providing brief changes of pace without altering the main loop. Despite its charm, the game is somewhat limited in scope. The overall playtime is relatively short, and while replaying levels to collect everything can extend the experience, there is little in the way of evolving mechanics or increasing complexity. Minor issues with controls and camera movement can occasionally disrupt gameplay, particularly when precise positioning is required, though these moments are infrequent. Ultimately, Pile Up! Box by Box is a game that succeeds by focusing on what it does best: delivering a light, cooperative experience that is easy to enjoy and share with others. It may not offer deep mechanics or long-term engagement, but it provides a consistently pleasant journey that emphasizes creativity and teamwork. For players looking for a relaxed, multiplayer-friendly puzzle-platformer, it offers a charming and approachable experience that is best enjoyed together. Rating: 7/10
Cute, casual game to play with friends without fighting between them. Amazing, although short for its price, but very well polished and designed.
Great game made with love. Really fun to play with freinds.
Extremely short and surprisingly unsatisfying. Also the physics barely worked and could often be cheesed
