  I'm only an hour or so in, but this game is fantastic so far. Despite the few glitches ive seen already, it is in great state for an alpha [b] Whats so great about it [/b] - The mechanics and controls take some getting used to, but are pretty easy once you figure it out. - The combat system allows for great [url=http://i.imgur.com/nkl48hD.gifv] combos [/url] - That gif was also made with the in-game gif-maker, a fantastic addition - The developer even added a thank you in the very begining, and seems like he will be very active in making the game and with the community, which will be fantastic [b] Glitches i've noticed so far [/b] - There are some archers on balconies that I cannot find any way to hit, since the camera angle is fixed, or the balcony blocks the arrows - Some text is shown at a weird angle that was imposible to read (one of the conversations in game with craigz) [b] Overall [/b] Overall, i give it a 9.5/10 for the concept thats been carried out to a great extent so far. some glitches, but its a fantastic game, even though there aren't many levels right now. I hope you'll buy the game to support the creator, who seems very invested in the game. Thanks for reading!

  A little buggy and lacking in content but that is to be expected from an early access game.

  As an early access game, this accomplishes the oh so rare achievement of being something interesting. It's not just fun, it's got a bunch of other things going for it. [h1]Gifs![/h1] Ever done something cool in a game and thought, "Man, if only there was some sort way I could push a button and the game would save the last 4 seconds of what I did in a convenient gif format?' Guess what! This game has that! And slow motion! That's like chocolate-and-peanut-butter level of compatibility. [h1]Stealth![/h1] No wait come back, it's well implimented. This game does stealth in the way that other games should stive to: naturally. I had forgotten there was stealth because I never used it, and there was never any forced stealth section. Cut to later on, when I saw some bushes, and decided to dash into and through them, rather than engage with the nearby enemies. It's minimal, but it's honestly such a well executed addition. [h1]An awesome developer![/h1] The fact that this game was released the 27th. and within 3 days, craigz has released 9 seperate updates fixing bugs people had reported shows how much dedication he has to this product. I've reported 2 bugs myself, and in less than 24 hours, he'd responded to both of them, and before too long, fixed the bug. What a guy!

  Amazing idea which takes simple concepts and uses them in a new way. Fuck AAA Dev's and CEO's worried about a bottom line. THIS is what video gaming is about.. I am proud to support. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxq0YRCWoko

  Writing a review because Craigz is too nice not to. Warcube is a simplistic, but fun little game that is cheap, has a bit of humor, and has an interesting gameplay mechanic, all about combos. Pros: Very Fun Very Cheap Very active developer Updating all the time Cons: EA, so it does not have much content currently Bugs bugs and more bugs Can be infuriating (maybe that's just me) Conclusion: If you don't want a very small game, don't buy it. For everyone else, BUY IT. The developer is great, the game is fun, it can be quite humoros, and is all around just great. 10/10 would rage at the arena mode again (also, congrats on the kid craigz!)

  Its not easy being a cube and being a war cube is even worse, but you know what is the worst of all, that you are sent back to an old kingdom, Your Old Kingdom! By mister I am so funny narrator and everybody knows you and that you were the king. But given the fact that in this kingdom everyone is a cube and the fighting makes great fun and the fact that you are kind of a king, even if your mighty kingdom is run down by barbaric red cubes, it is not that bad. That is kind of how the game of war cube starts, a small little combat game full of humor and all kind of medieval stuff. As already stated the game has good humor but I see the danger of this element becoming too powerful. In this state of the game the humor is hold back to an agreeable amount but if the game is going to define itself just through its humor, I may have to give it a bad review in the future. The surrounding and different levels of the game are drawn beautifully in a now getting so popular low poly graphical style. The world (in this stage of the game) is rather small but given the fact that it is still in early accesses it is in place to hope that the scale of the game is getting bigger and bigger. Because now the game is finished in about 2 hours. Are this 2 hours fun? Yes they are but they leave the player with the slightly uncomfortable feeling of "I want more!" and "already finished?" In the whole game there is no single indication of which weapon is the best and if the newly found armor is better than the other. A situation which let me to always fight with the same weapons what is not that bad (in this stage of the game) as the variety of armor and different weapons is almost equal to zero. Moreover I think a looting system where you can get some stuff out of the enemies you kill can help the game. I know it is not a revolutionary idea to make a looting system but I desperately want this game to be developed and to give the player more to do inside of the game because just exploring and good humor is not enough. Therefore I would also love to see a good development in the tactical view as I think the rather monotone getting combat system would match very well with a bit of strategic warfare with the tactical view. And moreover it would be interesting to see what bigger battles with warcubes would look like. As I said I think that is a huge area of development that would give the game great dimension. Because what the game does till now is creating a good framework. Now its time to get depth into the game and the different game assets. I talked about a general framework of the game being created but this framework is also useful for something else, because this simple framework gives the player something to built his own imagination and own stories around. These aspect of the game principle is the same as in Mount and Blade as the player can add to the game experience by his own imagination. For example when I hid in the bush and sneaked up to an enemy I was like "Whoa! That's a great experience I fell like I should have felt when I played Assassins Creed 3". No that is a bit over the top but I found it interesting that this simple game could generate the same feeling of excitement and anticipation as a huge game like AC 3. In general the now existing early access game is rather small but is already playable and gives adequate game fun and I am especially excited how much potential this game has. So with more time put into development this game can become a real winner. http://architectonreview.blogspot.com.tr/search/label/games

  [b]Warcube[/b] is an extremely fun (but short) combo/fighting game about killing the red cubes. It also has a lot of humor. Totally worth the $10, would recommend to all.

  Like shadow of mordor, but cool. For real though, I've been with this game since "day one," and though it is still in development and it has all the bugs to show for it, it has been enormously fun, despite using such small cubes. Now, my sarcastic comment about shadow of mordor is actually not too far off. The individual enemies lack various traits, and there are not many special moves so far, but otherwise, it plays like one would expect a top-down version of shadow of mordor should. I am not saying that this is a simple copycat game, oh no, this is a game that is going against the grain to be unique, and it doesn't cut corners doing it. There is no need to take a chance when you roll with these cubes. This is a game optomized for the professional gamer, with slingshot and slo-mo mechanics, you can dish out all kinds of six-sided fury, should you have the skills. Not a professional? No problem! Combat is actually quite simple, as you parry when a symbol appeasr over your foes' heads and click on them to attack. The music give the feelings one should have when on an epic quest and is greatly improving with the help of the new team member, Blake. (Though he looks more like a rectangular prism than a cube... Whatever, I don't judge.) The graphics are crisp and unique.... I suck at describing graphics. Er... The characters all have six sides, which is nice for consistancy. As for the plot, WHO NEEDS A PLOT WHEN ALL OF THE CHARACTERS HAVE SO MANY SIDES?! Seriously, you won't find a two-dimensional character anywhere in the game. Go on, look! See, I told you. Anyway, it is a good game with a good developer. Unlike many, he has actually been updating frequently and adding good content instead of just hats... er... ah well, at least he keeps adding new features and content of all kinds. It is still in beta or alpha or... Aw heck I forget. It's growing and it's fun what more do you people want!? Now get off my lawn!

  This game is the peak of indie development. In Warcube you control a blue cube (a symmetrical three-dimensional shape, either solid or hollow, contained by six equal squares) and you travel around this world with deserts, snowy biomes and flat plains and counquer red outposts. As this game is in Early Access, completing the game (For all of you completionists, such as myself) It only takes a couple of hours to complete it, but with the developer (Craigz) working his hardest and constantly updating the game, there is always something new to come back to in the following weeks. Anyways, if I were to rate this game right now, as an unfinished game, I'd give it ✯✯✯✯✰ , but I can see the huge potential this game has to offer. Other than the bugs, (such as sometimes your cubes doesn't aim where your curser is, or how sometimes the merchant goes into outpost enterance zones, making you not able to buy stuff until he leaves) it's a pretty solid, fun game. But who cares what I think, lol

  EDIT: I reviewed this game based on Early Access ver 0.0.5v3, back when it still got updates routinely. Then the developer vanished for years without really finishing the title to a "fully playable" state, so I'm going to change this to a thumbs-down. I may re-review it later once it's done, if ever, but I'm doubtful of that happening. Original text follows: Warcube is a fun brawler, though a bit limited and easy right now due to being in very early access. The best part is being able to do combo attacks that wipe out an entire enemy group in slow motion - it's exactly as fun as it looks. The worst part is the janky Unity physics when it comes to platforming, along with needing to reposition the camera correctly. Hopefully later patches improve on the physics and camera, as well as adding more and harder content. For now I'd say that it's not worth the $10 asking price due to the lack of content, but that it could easily be if you're willing to bank on it being improved in the future.

  Much fight, Skill and patience required for getting the extra loot. This game has a few bugs which im not surprised since its a early access game, The devs have been working hard on this game since the begining of its release. You may need to replay lvls to get extra money for equipment. Overall, I rate this game 8/10 Update: -Its been 2 years and he still has not added anything sufficient to have my play the game over and notice the updates added. -I would say this game could be fun . -Has a long way to go and won't be done anytime soon.

  Yipppppieee! Labor of love.. never seen a dev more excited and motivated to work on a game! Very responsive and active in the community... This isn't like any of the other games I have.. I have a lot of games. It's one of the more unique games I've played. I like to collect artistic/weird or interesting games. It's like Link went for a reach around on Mario (64) and shot out a whole new basket of fun. I haven't put much time in at all. Hopefully better controller supports will be added soon. There is the key binding option but I suck at figuring it out. I blame the buzz. This game is really fun even though I really suck at aiming for anything with my mouse. I couldn't draw a stick figure with my mouse so I die a lot... The graphics are so satisfying!!!! Super cute little cubes!! I love the battle style. You pretty much make a line, like mini golf games work but you are in battle so you have to be quick... and the cube goes launching at anything ahead of it. But not overkill. It's physics-ly satisfiying for a basic gamer (it is believable, you know, if you were from the world of cubes). Worth the tag. If you can afford to support Early Access with a dev that is sure to push this gem to a wonderful release point... and probably keep going after that.. Give it a shot! This is one of my better EA games.. community is great too.

  10/10 gameplay really solid, impressive that the dev achieved it alone. Easly a worthwhile early access title, the developer seems super friendly and very dedicated. Can't wait for the finished product.

  First and Foremost: this game is STILL IN DEVELOPMENT. now that that is out of the way.. here are some pros and cons! Pros: +Developer accepts suggestions, listens very closely to audience +Funny sense of humor (subjective) +Unique combat system, but shields are lacking +Pretty cheap! +Tons of little secrets to be found: extends play-time massively +Arena mode for when you run out of campaign content to play +Almost zero gamebreaking bugs that stay for more than 2 days Cons -Developer does not have scheduled updates -The campaign runs out of content fast depending on how much combat entertains you/if you dont like to go on item hunts Conclusion: All in all, i really love this game. it has a fluid combat system and the developer responds to almost every suggestion or bug report on the discord. 9/10, would be 10/10 but game isnt fully released so i cant judge right now

  Bought this game a long time ago and thought it was worth it. After playing three hours I got tired of it and would not recommend to buy it. This game is very laggy and looks like the developer abandoned it a long time ago. DO NOT BUY IT.
