Boxbound helps you experience the stress and strangeness of being a postal worker, coming soon

If the thought of becoming a postal worker and navigating the stressful world of speedy deliveries under intense pressure excites you, then the upcoming satirical, story-adjacent puzzler Boxbound might just be the game for you. In this unique experience, you'll step into the shoes of a postal worker, teaming up with your fellow employee Peter to stack boxes and make deliveries amidst a backdrop of strange, world-changing events.

The gameplay in Boxbound is straightforward yet challenging. Your task is to fit differently-shaped boxes onto a winding grid while driving through city streets, dodging obstacles along the way. The real twist comes from the unpredictable events that you'll face, such as power outages and debris that needs clearing from the grid.

Adding to the chaos, the world outside continues to move and evolve while you're on the job. Your colleague Peter will keep you informed about these bizarre occurrences, which dramatically and increasingly strangely impact your work environment.

Neither snow, nor rain... This barely scratches the surface of what Boxbound offers. With a virtually limitless number of levels and new package shapes to unlock as you progress, the game promises endless variety. A glance at the trailer hints at the quirky, weird, and slightly sinister experience that awaits players.

Set to release on March 31st, Boxbound boasts a distinctive charm that is sure to keep players engaged. While the core gameplay might not be my cup of tea, the sight of Peter donning various colorful outfits and the chaotic, strange events unfolding outside—ranging from everyday items to explosives—piques my curiosity. It's a game that compels you to dive in and discover what it's all about.
