About

Shape Box!

Features
Read full description

This is Shape Box! A game that combines both logic and skill, where your mission is to unscrew shapes from the cube’s surfaces, clean them up, and put the pieces in place. Sounds easy? Think again! Rotate the cube, tap on the screws, and watch the shapes fall. Your goal is to remove all the shapes from each surface, clearing the cube. But that's not all! Once it’s cleared, you must fit new shapes into the empty spaces to complete the cube! Challenging levels in different themes: Every new level introduces new shapes and challenges. As you advance through the levels, face increasingly complex puzzles that will test your skills.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Shape Box! at none against Toy Swipe's 1. Shape Box! also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 5 days). Toy Swipe's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (15 vs 1). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.
