✦ AI summary
Players appreciate BOXNIGMA's clever puzzle design and visuals, but many find the strict pixel-perfect timing mechanics frustrating and tedious, especially when combined with repetitive level restarts. Technical issues like freezing on startup are also reported by some players, and the timing-based gimmick is introduced too early in what is otherwise a short game.
Although I like the puzzle design, the requirement of near pixel perfect timing makes it less enjoyable for me. Interesting idea, but I personally can't recommend it.1 found this helpful
I want to like BOXNIGMA, but I think it was a mistake to combine what is essentially a cool puzzle game with sort of platform-y mechanics, where you're restarting the level over and over to try and hit your keyboard at exactly the right time. It doesn't add anything interesting and quickly becomes rather tedious.1 found this helpful
Trailer seems nice, but game is broken and freezes when trying to start game, don't buy it1 found this helpful
I've seen this style of game countless times before, but this one takes it to a whole to level.1 found this helpful
As some other reviews mention, the beginning levels showcase a neat idea but then it becomes extremely tedious when timings are introduced. I wouldn't mind if there were a set of levels using this gimmick if there were sufficient content without it, but the problem is it only takes like 10 minutes to get to the annoying part.
Very challenging game, with great aesthetics. Recommended!
