Overall: Q.U.B.E is another great action puzzle game that is a great addition to your library that is recommended to all, even to those who enjoy "Portal" or did not enjoy it.Regardless of how bland the interface looks, the gameplay stands up and shines in this game.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
48 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The difficulty curve is great, with an exception of that one room.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
35 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack creates an unsettling atmosphere ideal for traversing strange alien structure.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The one thing that I can say that the game did well was its graphics; Q.U.B.E. is an indie game, but by making use of the extremely minimalist environment composed almost entirely of white cubes, the producers managed to make a game that looks very good – I don’t think anyone would immediately identify it as an indie game just by looking at it, at least not at the start.
