BoxWorld 2 is a free and fun puzzle game, where the player has to reach the exit of the stage, in order to finish the level and advance to the next one.
Even if it sounds easy, various obstacles are placed around, making the goal harder than it seems at first sight. At some stages, there are holes, which can be filled with the boxes placed around. There are several types of boxes - the orange and green are normal ones, which can be pushed around.
The grey boxes, called IceBoxes, when pushed will slide away if there is no wall, hole or another box to stop them. Because the player can not go over the holes, he have to think of strategy to pass them with the use of boxes, or be careful with them, so the boxes which may be in need for other passages, does not fall in random holes.
If the player gets stuck, he can retry the level with the expense of one life. If all the lives are gone, the game is over and he have to start over or load his last saved position.
Game progress can be saved any time by just pressing the "S" key, and can be loaded at later time, by pressing the "L". Loading of game will stop the player from appearing in the hall of fame, where the best players names are kept, along with the stage reached, total number of pushes and moves. The game on MacOS X is played in window at the desktop.
The music can be stopped any time by pressing the "M" key. The version provided here have 34 stages, with varius difficulty, ranging from very easy, to hard. As the difficulty progress over the stages, the player gains more and more experience and his motivation is kept over the game.
The different music at every stage is another motivation factor, making the player wanting to go further. But the further levels are harder to pass, giving even better motivation.
