Boxville is 2-in-1: an animated film and a puzzle game. Boxville is an adventure puzzle game about speechless cans living in the city of boxes and drawing doodles on cardboards to tell the stories. Boxville is good for playing alone to dive into the atmosphere and challenge your brain with sophisticated logic puzzles and riddles, or playing with a friend or family to share unique audio-visual experiences and solve the puzzles together. Design The core idea of the game is that it’s not just a game - but also an animated film that you can watch and play at the same time. We designed Boxville’s gameplay with the purpose of taking away your anxiety and stress. You can explore and observe the world without rushing and pressure. The game is full of environmental quests and logical puzzles that we have carefully picked from among hundreds of options. Story Boxville is a city of boxes populated with old cans. They live quiet and happy lives with their everyday routines and habits. But one day, unexplained earthquakes disturbed their idyll... Blue Can (our hero) lost his best friend because of that. He started his search but it is not so easy to move through the city after earthquakes. He has to find a way to move forward, return the friend back home and discover the real reason for all those earthquakes. There are many adventures, new friends and it’s not only friends that are waiting for him on the way. He has to be curious, inventive, careful, and to help others, to reach his goal. What you can expect to see and hear in Boxville: - Hand-drawn graphics — all backgrounds and characters are carefully drawn by our artists. - Every animation and sound is created especially for each interaction. - Unique music track was created for every scene to accomplish the atmosphere of the game. - Tens of logical puzzles and mini-games are tightly incorporated into the story of the game. - There are no words in the game — all characters communicate via cartoony speechbubbles.
Bee Sweeper

Sweep the honeycomb. Don't wake the bees. Bee Sweeper is a cozy twist on the classic Minesweeper. Instead of a minefield, you get a warm honeycomb full of sleeping bees. Tap to reveal a cell, long-press to place a flag, and let the numbers guide you: each one tells you how many bees are resting next door. One careless tap and... bzzz! You've been stung. Sting too often and the round is over. Clear the whole honeycomb untouched and enjoy that perfect, satisfying win. EASY TO LEARN A friendly tutorial teaches you everything in a minute. No timers, no pressure. Just you, the numbers, and the hive. HARD TO PUT DOWN Work your way through handcrafted levels and rising difficulties, from your first careful taps to expert-level sweeps. One more level turns into ten. You've been warned. MAKE IT YOURS Unlock sweet themes and play the way you like, in your language (English, Deutsch, Español, Українська). TRACK YOUR PROGRESS Flawless clears, longest win streak, fewest stings, perfect levels. Your statistics remember every triumph (and every "happy little accident"). A MOMENT OF CALM Every round comes with a drop of wisdom: little quotes about bees, patience, and life from great minds through the ages. Prefer zero interruptions? A single purchase removes all ads, forever. Whether you're a Minesweeper veteran or a curious newbee, the hive is waiting. Grab your flags and start sweeping. Just... quietly.
