    I have never reviewed a game on Metacrtic so that already shows my love for this game. Considering this comes from a fresh new developer they have done a fantastic job in making a mystical world with very few models and effects. The game is relaxing and rewarding while the frequent checkpoints make most of the game painless.

Considering this comes from a fresh new developer they have done a fantastic job in making a mystical world with very few models and effects. The game is relaxing and rewarding while the frequent checkpoints make most of the game painless. Clocking in at around 4/5 hours on your first play through it isn't bad at the price tag of £7. The biggest factor and the main reason I have given the game a 7 is for the lack of narrative. The game tries to hint at a story through the cubes, symbols and status laying around but it isn't enough. Just like Q.U.B.E and Anti chamber it fails to deliver in this department. With that being said I was compelled to play the game and found my self immersed in the game world.

    Thank you Liquid Flower for creating such a brilliant little game and good luck in the future!    … Expand

    Honestly, there is little bad I can say about Qbeh-1. In a try-hard industry of pretentious or sloppy writing and presentation, Qbeh-1 teaches us that it’s sometimes okay to just be a game and nothing else. If you like challenging puzzles and enjoy a fun meditative zen aesthetic, get this game – it’s worth your time.

    While the game is pretty simple and far from being a compelling and engrossing experience, being merely good, if you like serene affairs that focus on exploration and let you choose your own pace, without being overly challenging, you’ll find Qbeh-1 to be a pretty good fit.

    If you’re up for an artistically ambitious puzzle game and don’t mind getting lost in the stages (literally), Qbeh-1: The Atlas Cube will mesmerize you the whole way through.
