Qbik

underground pixely movement puzzler, kinda like boulder dash without arcade elements. 63 levels in 7 chapters, sadly, only one level is unlocked at a time, solve a few in a pack to open the next. except the number doesn't mean that level but a total amount, as I learned to my cost near the end. ♥♥♥♥ move to make it seem like you're generous in unlocking multiple packs in case somebody gets stuck on the single available level in the current one. make it a countdown or say 'complete 46 levels to unlock' instead of 'complete 46'. I was stuck on 42 and 46, did 46 and still no pack 7. eat all yellow tiles to finish the level, simple as that. on paper anyway. move counter in the corner, no move limit, nor records kept, but level complete compares your attempt to the global average and offers exit, restart and next as options. level numbers are visible on-screen and on level select, [b]no mid-level saving if you quit[/b]. non-rebindable controls, 99% mousable, keys don't work in the menus or for movement, nor are they mentioned anywhere outside the tutorial. 'f' selects/deselects qbik, along with left click, 'z' takes back the last path selection, along with right click. possible moveme…

A high quality puzzle game that would benefit anyone's thought encouragement collection. The gameplay, mechanics, and functionality are very well executed. The sound design however, leaves.... MUCH to be desired.

A relaxing puzzle game with clean visuals and satisfying mechanics. Simple at first but gradually becomes more challenging and engaging.

Blocks fit together like a mental puzzle, every move is a step toward genius, and I still can’t beat level three.

Qbik, developed by Norbert Palacz and published by Forever Entertainment S.A., is a minimalist puzzle-platform game that embraces simplicity while offering a surprisingly complex and methodical challenge beneath its retro exterior. The premise is immediately charming yet straightforward: players control a small, one-eyed square creature tasked with consuming every yellow block in each level. Set within an underground world of pixelated caverns, the player must carefully navigate tight spaces, avoid traps, and plan every move in order to clear the board without getting stuck. It’s a concept that harkens back to the golden age of puzzle design, where clarity of rules and logical depth mattered far more than flashy presentation or cinematic storytelling. Qbik’s deceptively cute aesthetic hides a game that can be as tough and cerebral as any modern logic puzzle, rewarding patience, foresight, and precision. From the moment it begins, Qbik establishes a distinct identity through its nostalgic pixel art and restrained visual design. Each level is built from simple geometric structures that communicate function through color and shape: yellow squares represent food, gray walls define bou…

A cute platformer.
