## What is BOOX?

Easy? That’s what BOOX thought too.
Until Level 3.

Move across a page of letters. Clear them all. Return to your starting square.

Except.

Step on an empty square again… and a letter comes back.

That’s all it takes to ruin a perfect run.

THE GAME

Quotes turned into paths. 28 squares. One simple rule: collect every letter and return to where you started.
Simple on the surface. Brutal in practice.

Every move matters. One wrong turn, and a letter comes back.
Your perfect path turns against you.
Nothing is random.

OBSTACLES

You won’t stay alone for long.

▸ Spiders block your path
▸ Bookmarks move while you think
▸ Clovers activate multiple tiles at once

One move can change everything.

A LITERARY TWIST

Each level is inspired by a classic work of world literature.
The book shapes the level, its atmosphere, its music, and the hidden quote.

Doyle, Maupassant, Kafka, Stoker, Cervantes, Zweig…

Nothing forced. Just there if you want it.
30 levels. 30 ways to rediscover great books.

ATMOSPHERE

Each level features an original soundtrack.
No filler — each track reflects the world of the book.

FEATURES

▸ English, French, and German
▸ Play offline
▸ No account, no sign-up
▸ No forced ads

So…

Easy?
