Gaming has a long tradition of titles involving blocks. On the Atari 2600, you broke blocks in Breakout. On the Nintendo Entertainment System, you punched them or jumped on them in Super Mario Bros. But most memorably, on the Game Boy, you rotated and arranged them in Tetris. And in 2016, we have what we’d like to declare as one of the next great block games in SUPERHYPERCUBE.

Developed by Kokoromi, a Montreal-based indie developer, and published by Polytron (of Fez fame,) the gameplay of SUPERHYPERCUBE is quite simple. You are floating through a space with a single cube. You come to a wall with a hole in the shape of that block. When you pass through the hole, additional cubes are added to the block, making the shape different.

Can you turn and rotate the block into the proper configuration in the handful of seconds you have before you come to the next wall? If you don’t, the first time, you will just smash through the hole, pieces falling off your block. The second time this happens, game over. By the way, every 10 walls is a boss wall to finish out a stage.
