Story of a Cube (2016) Review
Story of a Cube is an action-packed shooter about a lone cube and his quest for revenge. Mixing elements of twin-stick shooters and bullet hell games, this is a hardcore arcade game with a crazy amount of explosions.
The game’s story is simple: you are a cube, and your home has been destroyed by an evil force. You must now embark on a quest to avenge your home and defeat the evil that destroyed it.
Story of a Cube is played from a top-down perspective. You control the cube with the left analog stick and aim your shots with the right analog stick. You can shoot in eight directions, and you can also use a variety of special abilities, such as a dash move and a bomb attack.
The game’s levels are procedurally generated, so they are different every time you play. This keeps the game fresh and challenging, as you never know what to expect.
The game’s difficulty is unforgiving. You will die a lot, but that’s part of the fun. The game is designed to be challenging, but it is also fair. If you die, it’s because you made a mistake.
Story of a Cube is a beautiful game. The graphics are simple, but they are very effective. The game’s use of color and light is stunning, and the explosions are some of the most impressive I’ve ever seen in a video game.
The game’s soundtrack is also excellent. The music is fast-paced and energetic, and it perfectly complements the game’s action-packed gameplay.
Overall, Story of a Cube is an excellent game. It’s challenging, rewarding, and beautiful. If you’re a fan of twin-stick shooters or bullet hell games, then you need to check out Story of a Cube.
