"Taking in the big pixelated picture Puzzle Box Maker is a niche title that’s important to have available as an option in the Switch library. There’s absolutely nothing quite like it on the system and that makes it both a major risk and refreshing to see. Conceivably there’s a never-ending amount of content possible with it, you just need to be very aware of the limits of what is capable of. If you’d like to explore your creative side and be able to experience your art in a unique way, or particularly if you’re raising a younger gamer who still isn’t quite ready for prime time, this could be a great title to explore."

About
Puzzle Box Maker lets you design and solve custom platformer puzzles using pixel art. Build mazes, traps, and obstacles with a grid-based editor then test them in real time. The game emphasizes sharing creations online, letting others tackle your challenges or download theirs. Movement feels tight and responsive, with simple controls that focus on precise jumps and timing. The standout feature is the open-ended level design tools which let anyone from casual players to artists craft intricate worlds. Community-made puzzles range from lighthearted jokes to brutally complex tests. A 2021 Switch port added portability without sacrificing the core creative loop. The minimalist approach appeals to players who enjoy tinkering as much as solving.
