Behold a whole new world. Yes, they may just look like funky little cubes, but inside each one lives a very small person, albeit a two dimensional pixelated one. Nevertheless he's a dynamic, interactive, multi-talented and behaviourally erratic little dude that'll provide you with hours and hours of useless entertainment. Cube World is a terrific concept, a place populated by stick people who get up to all sorts of tricks. Each cube has its own inhabitant, with their own set of tricks, games and general odd behaviour. Slim, Dodger, Scoop, Whip, Handy, Dusty, Mic, Hans, Chief, Toner, Dash and Sparky will get up to all sorts of stuff, like playing basketball, juggling, snake-charming, the list is as long as it is random. Not only can they entertain themselves, they're also interactive and will react to you pushing buttons on the cube, and are motion sensitive - so roll the cube around and they'll crash about too. As well as being an individual blast to play with, they can meet and play with each other. Click the cubes together, side by side or on top of each other, and they'll interact with each other, playing games, hopping from their own cube into someone else's, even having a punch up!
You can connect up to sixteen cubes together in any combination, and you never can tell what the little dudes will get up to. They're deeply cool, compellingly random and you just won't be able to help yourself becoming unhealthily attached to your own little world.

I love these things, there is no better handheld(?) game. They're a staple of any childhood and, to this day, entertaining. I'm pretty sure my parents threw all of them out though, and getting one nowadays is really expensive. But aside from that, I LOVE these things and I hope y'all still make them, I'm gonna go check now actually.
Okay I've checked and now I'm buying one. I LOVE THESE THINGS SO MUCH!!!!!!!!
Anyway thanks for reading. :)
