Description

An automatically controlled crane drops crates at the location of the person, the person must not be hit by a crate. By directing where crates are dropped the screen can be filled. Points are earned by placing down more crates, the more crates placed down the more points are earned to spend in the shop. But watch out for bombs, when either the player or a crate lands on top of it, it will explode and destroy crates around it. The bomb does not damage the player when exploding.

It's based on an old phone game where I no longer can find the name/source of, just vaguely remember the game-play.

I played this when I was younger on my late grandfather's old cell phone. Thanks for remaking this game.

just by playing this once, the game is awesome.

I love this game! Tho I wish it was a bit harder as time passed. Like the crane could start moving faster for every 10 coins the player holds, which in return would challenge the coin hoarders to spend the money and overall introduce more risk to the gameplay. :)
 What was the game engine used? Cuz I'm trying to make my own emulator using c++ and sfml and it's draining me mentally '-'

Thanks for trying out BoxZone :)
The crane has been tweaked a bit but requires some more love.
I've used the Godot Game Engine to develop this simple game.
