    Despite its flaws, though, The Sandbox is a remarkable little app that will keep you busy for ages. It's hard to have any serious grievances with a game that molds itself according to your mood.

    The Sandbox is already one heck of a game, freemium or not, and it has nowhere else to go from here but up.

    Even without spending any money or unlocking every single element in the game, The Sandbox is still a wonderful time killer that is perfect for people who enjoy experimenting, destroying, and building in a fun sandbox environment.

    The sky isn't quite the limit, but The Sandbox is well on the way. And with a planned Universal update in the works, its canvas is set to grow. So go, make something amazing.

    The Sandbox offers an interesting digital playground, but with some annoyances.

    The Sandbox delivers an original and fresh experience, packed with a simple but effective touch interface and some interesting social elements. What a pity the story mode is so poor and uninspiring, while you're forced to buy some mana once you complete a bunch of missions.
