QBX is a thinking game for the NDS which involves solving 3D cube puzzles. Similar to Tetris but instead of a 2D playing field, puzzle pieces are in 3D and descend on a 3D cube.

It was submitted in the NEO Summer Coding contest 2006.

Features

  • 4 game modes.
  • Recorded scores.

User guide

The goal is to make lines in a 5x5x5 3D cube.

Shapes will be submitted one by one. Each shape comes from above and can only be translated forward/backward and left/right.The cube, can only be rotated around its 3 axis.

The shape does not fall automatically. Hence, you have time to place it. Then you chose when you want it to fall. Then, it will go down in one shot.You have to move the shape and rotate the cube in order to make the shape going inside the cube to make lines.

Any line made of 5 little cubes will then disappear.

You can choose between 4 game modes (time limit settings): Endless, 5 minutes, 10 minutes and 15 minutes. They can be selected from the welcome screen.
