“The levels are not at all easy, but what's a puzzle game if it does not also get progressively harder?”
4/5 – Opium Pulses

“Super Retro BoxBot is a fine puzzle game. It has some really simple mechanics but uses them well in devious ways to make you work for your solutions.”
7/10 – Gaming Grin

About This Game

Are you prepared to take on the challenge?

Use the "Rewind Point" feature to save or restore your progress mid-level:


With the included level editor, you can create your own custom levels. You can also export and share levels on ModDB:
