Read full descriptionHide full description
In Sand Cubes you need to unblock lots of cubes of sand in order to paint beautiful pictures of landmarks, nature or food! Only when you are able to strategically unblock all Sand Cubes, you will be able to finalize the picture and proceed to the next level. But watch out, there are many obstacles in this game, such as Ice Cubes that need to melt or mysteriously locked areas that you first need to unlock. Enjoy the hundreds of beautifully crafted levels.
