I want to emphasize that the game says "arbitrary" in its title. Is it a little slow? Yes. Does it baby the players with a tutorial at the beginning and leaves figuring out the nuances of the game almost exclusively to the player's curiosity? For sure. But that's part of the joy--a randomness that's difficult to pin down to a pattern.

Cube&Star is colorful, minimalistic, smart, darkly and subtly funny (the Nietzchean quips from the various geometric creatures make me alternate between wanting to laugh or cry), and aesthetically exquisite. It wasn't hard to fall for the simplicity of this game, and I more than appreciate how relaxed I can feel playing it without it being totally mind-numbing.


It's casual but quietly rewarding, and well worth it. I recommend it wholeheartedly to both the whimsical and patient player looking for something a little different, if not Euclidean.
