"Boxbound: Experience Postal Worker Stress Soon"

by Audrey Apr 26,2025

If you've ever fantasized about the life of a postal worker, grappling with the high-stress environment of swift deliveries and tight deadlines, you might find the concept puzzling. But if that's your kind of thrill, then the upcoming satirical, story-adjacent puzzler Boxbound could be your next obsession.

In Boxbound, you step into the shoes of a postal worker alongside your colleague Peter. The core gameplay revolves around stacking variously-shaped boxes onto a winding grid and making deliveries as you navigate the bustling city streets, deftly avoiding obstacles. But the game throws a curveball with unexpected events like power outages and debris that you'll need to clear from the grid.

As if that wasn't challenging enough, the world outside your delivery vehicle is in constant flux. Peter, your fellow employee, will keep you updated on the bizarre occurrences that drastically alter your work environment in increasingly odd ways.

Set to launch on March 31st, Boxbound offers a distinctive charm that's sure to keep players engaged.

It's a world I'm eager to explore!
