About Unbox: Newbie's Adventure

The ultimate postal service has arrived... self-delivering cardboard boxes!

Unbox: Newbie's Adventure is a retro-inspired physics platformer about rolling cardboard boxes; enjoy an epic single player adventure and grab your friends for four-player fun in local multiplayer races and battles!

Global Postal Service is nearing bankruptcy and in an attempt to save themselves, they have created living, self-delivering boxes. Their latest cardboard creation, Newbie is here to save the day. Battle against the dastardly Wild Cards across huge worlds full of challenges, collectibles and boxy boss battles!

From tropical islands to frozen peaks, filled with collectibles and cardboard characters, Unbox takes you around the world to save GPS, defeat Boss Wild and his miniature minions. Find and complete challenges on each world to earn stamps and, once you have enough, it’s time to take on Boss Wild! Using the power of Unreal Engine 4, the world of Unbox: Newbie's Adventure is filled with physics fun: buildings will crumble and boxes will tumble in this explosive adventure!

Once you’ve saved the world, grab your friends for classic four player fun! Enter the arena to battle your buddies in a range of game modes:
  • Boxing: Shoot fireworks, avoid water!
  • Collect: Grab the most tape, where will it appear next?
  • Thief: Steal coins, ruin friendships!
  • Oddbox: Become the most wanted, avoid the hunters!

Gotta go fast? Try Delivery, a racing game mode where boxes will plummet down perilous routes as they try to reach the finish box first! With 11 diverse Local Multiplayer maps and a fully customisable tournament, prepare for endless cardboard carnage!

Make sure you dress to impress with a massive range of cardboard customisation! Completing challenges, finding hidden stamps and rescuing innocent boxes from the Wild Cards will unlock a range of cuboid clothes and accessories. From formal wear to fancy dress, there are over 40,000 combinations of hats, clothes accessories and funny faces.

Don’t be a square! Think outside the box and create your very own cool cube!

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Players have mixed feelings about this box-themed platformer. Some appreciate its charming premise, decent platforming mechanics, and quirky appeal, but many criticize its frustrating design choices—particularly the excessive stamp-hunting requirements that force tedious exploration, unhelpful hint system, and the hub-world approach that overshadows actual platforming. The controls also divide opinion, with some finding them awkward while others enjoy the novel box movement mechanics.

Maybe having self delivering boxes isn’t as good of an idea as it sounds. And that’s what this game’s about. You are a box, you go around completing side quests, helping a postal service with its various jobs while also collecting stuff lying around, evading obstacles and maybe even battle some enemies in the process. What enemies? More boxes of course, an annoying bunch that only serve to make you waste time by blasting you off, force you to participate in a boss fight or represent the impending doom in the plotline. You know, the usual. The world itself is full of other boxes to talk to, a 3D landscape to explore thanks to the ability of “jumping” in the air up to 6 times in a row, vehicles to move around faster and lots of collectibles. These include 200 tapes per world, various trapped boxes and some hidden stamps added to the ones you already receive for completing the side quests. Since there are 4 maps including the hub world, you can probably beat the game in around 8-10 hours. As decent as this may sound, the main reason it doesn’t work is the gameplay. The controls sometimes simply don’t do as intended. Sometimes they can get stuck with too much momentum at time…

A criminally underrated old school style platformer with a surprising amount of heart.

you are a moving box...it's as fun as it sounds, which is not at all.
