Cubuild is a creative sandbox that is all about building. Pick a material, pick a shape and start: every block is unlocked from the first minute. There is no survival, no monsters, no mining and no crafting. Nothing stands between you and what you want to build. BUILD ANYTHING • More than 70 materials: stone, brick, wood, metal, fabric in 15 colors, glass and stained glass. • 8 shapes for every building material: block, slab, stairs, slope, vertical slab, pillar, beam and panel. • Windows, doors and trapdoors that open and close. • Flowers, ferns, vines and mushrooms for the finishing touches. A WORLD THAT FEELS ALIVE • Three liquids: water, lava and slime. They flow, spread and tumble down as waterfalls. • Colored light: lamps, lanterns and neon in nine colors tint everything around them. • A full day and night cycle with sunrise, sunset and stars. The Totem of Light skips ahead to morning or evening. BUILD IT, GLUE IT, DRIVE IT • Glue any build into a single vehicle, add a seat and set off. • Floaters keep boats on the water, propellers lift flying machines into the sky. ENDLESS WORLDS • Landscape: an endless terrain of mountains, forests, deserts, rivers, lakes and oceans, different in every world. • Five flat sites for a clean start: Meadow, Lagoon, Plateau, Snowfield and Void. • Create as many worlds as you like and move any of them to another device as a single file. TOOLS FOR BUILDERS • Pick block, fast flight, a ghost preview of each block before you place it, and a third-person camera. • Cleaners clear a building site in one go. • Experimental options in Settings: WorldEdit for editing whole areas (fill, replace, copy, paste, shapes, undo), sounds, and a ready-made map, Island City. Plays on iPhone, iPad and Mac. On Mac, with keyboard and mouse. Interface in 12 languages. No ads, no in-app purchases. [Подписи на скриншотах / Screenshot captions] 1.
