You play as Newbie, a living cardboard box created by the Global Postal Service as it tries to avoid bankruptcy. Explore a hub and worlds ranging from tropical islands to frozen peaks, meeting box characters and confronting the Wild Cards.
Jump, roll, navigate obstacles, complete challenges, gather tapes and hidden stamps, and rescue boxes in need. Earn stamps from challenges and collectibles to unlock access to boss fights against Boss Wild and his minions.
Outside the single-player adventure, local multiplayer supports up to four players in races and arena modes, including delivery-route races, item collecting, and battles. Challenges and hidden finds also unlock box clothing and accessories for customization.
The supplied reviews are mixed. Some players enjoy the platforming and traversal, and appreciate the unusual box protagonist and the game's simple, charming tone. Others find the controls frustrating or the stamp hunt disrupts the pacing.
