If you've ever fantasized about stepping into the shoes of a postal worker, navigating the nerve-wracking stress of making speedy deliveries under intense pressure, you might find the appeal a bit puzzling. But if that's your thing, the upcoming satirical story-based puzzler, Boxbound, might just be what you're looking for.
In Boxbound, you take on the role of a postal worker alongside your fellow employee, Peter. The gameplay revolves around stacking boxes of various shapes onto a snaking grid before making deliveries as you drive through the city streets, dodging obstacles along the way. The twist lies in the unexpected events you'll encounter, from power outages to debris that needs to be cleared from the grid.
To add to the challenge, the world outside your postal route is constantly in motion. Peter, your good friend and coworker, will keep you informed about the bizarre occurrences that drastically alter your work environment in increasingly strange ways.
**Neither snow, nor rain...** That's just the tip of the iceberg. Boxbound offers a functionally limitless number of levels and a variety of package shapes you'll unlock as you progress. A quick glance at the trailer hints at the whacky, weird, and somewhat sinister experience that awaits players.
Set to release on March 31st, Boxbound promises a unique charm that will keep players engaged and coming back for more. While the gameplay itself might not be everyone's cup of tea, the sight of Peter donning colorful outfits and the indication of chaotic and strange events happening outside, including shipping explosives, piques curiosity about what the game has in store.
