UNIQLO x BOXBOY! (game)

2025-01-22T11:34:07Z

QuagisCool: Added Italics

{{Notice Box|filename=Discontinued.png|text='''This game is semi-discontinued.''' This game is no longer intended to be officially accessible in English, due to its removal in the US Uniqlo app - however, due to how it was released, it can still be accessed in English by playing it online; see the "Obtaining" section of this article for more details on how to do so. The Japanese version can still be accessed by using the Japanese version of the Uniqlo app, or by playing it online.}}

{{Game|name=Uniqlo x Hakoboy!|image=Uniqlo x Hakoboy! logo.png|width=300px|developer=[[HAL Laboratory]]|publishers=Uniqlo|release=2017|platforms=iOS, Android, Web (likely unintentional)|price=Free|genre=Puzzle-platformer, advergame}}

'''''Uniqlo x Hakoboy!''''' is a free mobile advergame released in Japan in 2017, meant to promote a [[BOXBOY! (series)|''BOXBOY!'']]-themed promotion between [[HAL Laboratory]] and Japanese clothing company Uniqlo.

==Gameplay==
Instead of being able to both move Qbby around and create [[Box|boxes]], the game moves Qbby while the player makes boxes, which are then automatically thrown on the ground. Players tap on the screen and swipe in the direction they wish to create a box in. In some cases, Qbby's boxes will have the Uniqlo logo printed on them instead of the regular gray color. The level ends when the game moves Qbby toward the goal door. In the English version of the game, nine new levels are playable every day which rotate throughout the week; three are easy, three medium, and three hard. These levels are chosen based on which difficulty the player picks. In the Japanese version of the game, however, one out of two levels are randomly picked every day. The Japanese version also only allows you to play two levels a day. Upon playing through the game enough in the Japanese version, the player receives a coupon for Uniqlo products, and shows some art of [[Qbby (Trilogy)|Qbby]].

==Obtaining==
''Uniqlo x Hakoboy!'' is no longer playable in English from the US Uniqlo app, however it can (likely unintentionally) be accessed from the internet (see below). As for the Japanese version, it can still be played in the Japanese version of the Uniqlo app from the "Fun Stuff" option in the "Membership" tab. A Uniqlo account is required to play the game. Changing the app's language to Japanese in the US version of the Uniqlo app also makes the Japanese version of the game available. Like the English version, the Japanese version can (likely unintentionally) be accessed from a web browser.

Both versions of the game are also available to access from the internet. For the Japanese version, [https://www.uniqlo.com/jp/hakoboy/game/index.html?uid=21b6eba5b3a4bb36548114d8463b411cd21eb3b66c2998619f68d4972a22696a&weekday=0 the main stages can be accessed here], [https://www.uniqlo.com/jp/hakoboy/game/index.html?is_tutorial=true and the game's tutorial can be accessed here]. For the English version, [https://www.uniqlo.com/jp/hakoboy/en/top.html the main stages and tutorial can be accessed here.]

{{Notice Box|filename=Tip.png|text='''Important note about the online versions of Uniqlo x Hakoboy!''' The links to the web versions above were found by fellow ''BOXBOY!'' fan [[User:MilesTheCreator|MilesTheCreator]]. '''For the Japanese versions only,''' they have a play limit of two levels per day that applies to '''everyone who clicks the link.''' This means that when the play limit is reached, the game will be inaccessible for anyone using the links until the next day. This limit does not apply to the US version.}}

==Trivia==

*This game is made using the Cocos2d game engine, making it the first [[BOXBOY! (series)|''BOXBOY!'']] game to be released without the usage of the engine previously used by HAL Laboratory for the [[BOXBOY! trilogy|''BOXBOY!'' trilogy]] and many ''Kirby'' games released on the Nintendo 3DS.
**HAL Laboratory would later use the Cocos2d engine for the mobile version of Part Time UFO.
*This is the only [[BOXBOY! (series)|''BOXBOY!'']] game released on mobile phones.
**Qbby would later make several cameos in [https://part-time-ufo.fandom.com/wiki/Part_Time_UFO ''Part Time UFO''], meaning he has appeared in mobile games twice so far.

'''Box Baby''' is a female [[Qbaby]] who appears in ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'' as a non-playable character.
==Physical Appearance==
Box Baby is a small square with two eyes and two legs. She has small red cheeks. After the events of "A Tale For Two", she wears [[Box Mom]]'s bow on her head.
==Appearances==

=== ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'' ===
In ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'', Box Baby is separated from [[Qbby (BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!)|Qbby]], [[Qucy (BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!)|Qucy]], and another [[Qbaby]]. [[Box Dad]] and Box Mom help Box Baby traverse the different worlds in order to reunite her with the others. At the end of the multiplayer campaign, Box Mom gives Box Baby her bow before sending her into the [[Box Ship]] in order to escape the planet.

In "A Tall Tale" she, along with the other Qbaby, helps Qbby by teaching him Up Hook and Hop, and later rescuing him after the [[Black Smoke|black smoke]] planet's cloud has been destroyed.

Lore of BOXBOY!

2025-01-22T11:29:10Z

QuagisCool:

{{Stub}}
{{Third-party}}

As the ''BOXBOY!'' series is first and foremost a puzzle game, the series generally does not actively explore non-puzzle elements. However, there is a minimal storyline present throughout all mainline games, which can create lore implications. The story and lore are almost entirely open for interpretation as their presence is minimal, but there are some commonly-agreed upon theories surrounding them. On the BOXBOY WIKI!, most story-related content is taken at face value due to no official explanations usually being given. This article exists to catalogue the most popular theories ''BOXBOY!'' fans have come up with and typically agree upon in regard to the game's lore, however realistic or canonical those theories may be.
== Placement of {{B+B}} ==
The canonical placement of ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'' in the ''BOXBOY!'' series timeline is an occasional topic of discussion among the ''BOXBOY!'' community. It is not officially part of the [[BOXBOY! trilogy|''BOXBOY!'' trilogy]], as [[BYE-BYE BOXBOY!|''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'']] was officially referred to as the final game in the trilogy<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P60cMyXxlDE</ref>, so the game may take place before or after the events of the trilogy. An official trailer for the game released by [[Nintendo]], titled "''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'' - The Story So Far - Nintendo Switch", describes ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'' as "the next chapter in ''BOXBOY!''"<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rY4FgF6qBw</ref>, which is presumably referring to the trilogy - this appears to be the only true explanation from an official source as to where the game takes place.

Despite the official statement from Nintendo's YouTube channel, a more prevalent theory is that the game is not a sequel - rather, it is instead a prequel to the trilogy's events. This theory is evidenced by many small details prevalent in ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'s'' various ending cutscenes, which line up with the beginning of ''BOXBOY!'':
*In A Tale For One's "bad ending", after [[Qbby (BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!)|Qbby]] and [[Qucy (BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!)|Qucy]] fail to stop the black smoke meteor from colliding with the Box Planet, several chunks of debris crash onto the Box Planet. Among this debris is a box covered in black smoke with his eyes shut. Shortly after this happens, a box falls from the sky, and lands to the right of the blackened box, as some text saying "To be continued" appears. This scene is very similar to the beginning of ''BOXBOY!'', where Qbby falls from the sky, and lands to the right of a blacked-out box with his eyes shut.
*In A Tall Tale's ending, [[Qudy]] is rescued by two boxes resembling Qbby and Qucy, who are in the [[Box Ship]]. Despite their resemblance, these boxes cannot be Qbby and/or Qucy, as they were on the black smoke meteor during that time. These boxes also cannot be [[Box Mom]] and/or [[Box Dad]], as they sacrificed themselves to send [[Box Baby]] onto the Box Ship. The only two boxes that were remaining on the Box Ship after Qudy left it were Box Baby and an unnamed Qbaby. By process of elimination, it can be inferred that the two boxes who saved Qudy at the end of the campaign were the now-matured Box Baby and unnamed [[Qbaby]]. After Qudy is rescued, the Box Ship speeds towards the [[Box Planet]]. In ''BOXBOY!'', the Box Ship appears to be present at the same location.

'''World 18''', also known as '''The Savior of Planets''', is the 18th and final main World of ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!''. It is intended to introduce players to the [[Abilities|Remote Box]]. The Remote Box is a special type of [[Box|box]] that can have its position changed after it has been created. It is also not affected by gravity, meaning it can stay in one place indefinitely.

'''World 22''', also known as '''Creative Combos 2''' (JP: 可能性は無限大ハコ2セットその2), is the second and final Creative Combos world in ''BOXBOY!'', and the last World in the game overall. It, like [[World 21 (BOXBOY!)|World 21]], is unlocked upon completion of the Bonus Worlds.

World 22 continues the usage of combos, or creating two sets of boxes at once.

In Level 8, the final level of the game, the player is tasked with pressing one-time buttons to remove blocks in order to allow them to progress through the level. When all the one-time buttons have been pressed and no resets have been used, the remaining blocks spell out "HAL", representing the name of the game's development studio, [[HAL Laboratory]].

[[Category:Worlds]]
[[Category:BOXBOY!]]
==Trivia==

* The concept of creating two sets of boxes at once was revisited in ''BOXBOXBOY!'', with the ability being the sole focus of the game.
* Level 22-8 is the game's "HAL room". This is an easter egg hidden by the developers in various HAL Laboratory games where a secret room can be accessed showcasing the letters "HAL". The most famous example of this is the <nowiki>''</nowiki>Kirby<nowiki>''</nowiki> series' HAL rooms - however, unlike how ''BOXBOY!''<nowiki/>'s HAL rooms are dedicated levels intended to be played, the <nowiki>''</nowiki>Kirby<nowiki>''</nowiki> series HAL rooms are not meant to be found by the average player.

QuagisCool: Added Italics

[[File:Shop.png|thumb|The Shop's location in ''BOXBOY!'']]
The '''Shop''' is a recurring location within the ''BOXBOY!'' series where the player can purchase various items. These items are not required to complete the game, they are either meant to make levels easier to complete or they just serve as fun novelties with no gameplay benefit. Throughout the four main games in the series, the Shop has changed in terms of presentation, what items can be purchased, and the currencies required to purchase said items, but its most notable redesign was in [[Shop#BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!|''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'']].

== ''[[BOXBOY! (game)|BOXBOY!]]''==
[[File:BBShopInterface.png|thumb|The Shop, as seen in ''BOXBOY!'']]
The first major version of the Shop was introduced in ''BOXBOY!'' and would remain until ''[[BYE-BYE BOXBOY!]]''. The only currency used in the first version of the shop are [[Medal|Medals]].

In he shop sells [[:Category:Costumes|costumes]], the [[Music|game's original soundtrack]] (each track is sold individually), challenge stages (in the form of [[Time Attack]] and [[Score Attack]] stages), and [[Tips and Tricks|tip books]].

==''[[BOXBOXBOY!]]''==
[[File:BBBShopInterface.png|thumb|The Shop, as seen in ''BOXBOXBOY!'']]
In ''BOXBOXBOY!'', the shop's items have been modified. The "Tips and Tricks" section is removed and can instead be viewed for free on the pause menu, and [[Comics|short comics]] replace it in the Shop. Time Attack and Score Attack were completely absent from this game, and were instead replaced with [[World CW (BOXBOXBOY!)|World CW]], a free unlockable challenge world in which Qbby must complete a level using a special costume.

==''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!''==
[[File:B-BBBShopInterface.png|thumb|The Shop, as seen in ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'']]
The shop's items were also modified in ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'', with more new costumes to unlock with medals or [[Amiibo]], comics and songs. Challenge Stages returned in this game, this time being fairly short levels that have to be completed without jumping, using the Up Hook, etc.

==''[[BOXBOY! Series Demo Version]]''==
The most barebones Shop to date for obvious reasons, ''BOXBOY! Series Demo Version'' only has costumes and comics available for purchase, which are assortments of the costumes and comics from the previous games.

==''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!''==
In ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'', the shop was completely revamped for the first time since the series' inception, both in terms of what items can be purchased and how they can be bought.

The Shop now uses two currencies: Medals return and are joined by the new Target Medals. Medals are used to purchase Assist Items, music, Balloon Challenge stages, and comics, and Target Medals are used to purchase a random accessory from the dress-up box. Costumes were also revamped in this game, as instead of paying for costumes directly, [[accessories]] are randomly drawn from the Dress-up Box for 30 Target Medals. New to this Shop are [[Assist Items|assist items]], which can be used during stage selection to make levels slightly easier for the player to complete. Songs and comics return as normal, and Challenge Levels also make a return in this game, as [[Balloon Challenge|Balloon Challenges]].

* ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'' contains two comics, “Qucy’s Secret” and “Qucy’s Secret 2”, which are exclusive to the Japanese version of the game. This is likely because their material could be perceived as offensive or insensitive in some regions, due to their punchlines involving Qucy’s weight. These were replaced with “Snowball Fight!” and “How, Exactly?” respectively in other regions.

* ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'' contains two comics, “Qucy’s Secret” and “Qucy’s Secret 2”, which are exclusive to the Japanese version of the game. This is likely because their material could be perceived as offensive or insensitive in some regions, due to their punchlines involving Qucy’s weight. These were replaced “Snowball Fight!” and “How, Exactly?” respectively in other regions.

'''Qbabies''' are small box children that first appear in ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'' and later appear with a redesigned appearance in ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!''.
==Physical Appearance==

==== ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!''====
Qbabies look similar to [[Qbby (Trilogy)|Qbby]], however they are slightly smaller with little gray cheeks. Qbabies also have the back corner of their heads colored, ranging from either red, orange, blue or purple. The color depends on which planet they are from.

====''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!''====
Qbabies receive a visual overhaul in this game. Instead of having the back corners of their heads colored, Qbabies now have colored cheeks. Instead of there only being four possible colors, the Qbabies have multiple different possible colors. It is highly possible that Qbabies are the younger, child versions of boxes, and that they lose their cheeks once they get older.<ref>"Cheeky!" [[Comics|comic]] description, ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'' "''Maybe you just lose them when you get older...''"</ref>

==Games ==
==== ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!''====
The Qbabies debut in ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'' as NPCs that need to be rescued and brought to the end of the level. They follow Qbby as he progresses through each stage. The Qbabies can jump over small gaps and steps, as well as ride boxes spawned by Qbby.

====''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'' ====
The Qbabies return in ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'', albeit with an altered appearance. These Qbabies do not reside on individual planets; rather, they live on the [[Box Planet]]. Unlike in ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'', the Qbabies do not show up in levels; instead, they appear in the game's storyline as NPCs, such as [[Box Baby]].

==Trivia==

*Not much is known about every individual Qbaby besides [[Box Baby]].
*A Qbaby shown on the logo and title screen of ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'' with the back corner of his head colored purple does not appear anywhere else in the game, unlike the other Qbabies shown in the logo.

Black Smoke

2025-01-21T11:52:11Z

QuagisCool: Changed it back due to me realising the others do this

{{Spoiler}}[[File:Black Smoke Qbby.png|thumb|The effect of the Black Smoke on Qbby.]]
The '''Black Smoke''' is a destructive element found throughout the ''[[BOXBOY! (series)|BOXBOY!]]'' series. Not much is known about it, but it has been shown to render entire planets completely uninhabitable, and corrupt lifeforms, such as [[Box (species)|boxes]]. Once a planet has been infected with the black smoke, the black smoke can only be removed from the planet through the use of a [[machine]]. This requires the sacrifice of one or more boxes, turning them black and making them enter "a long sleep".<ref>Description of song "Qbaby Power" in ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'': "They fused with the planet to harness its energy. Now they enter a long sleep."</ref>

Throughout all the games in the series (with the exception of ''[[BOXBOXBOY!]]'', the primary goal for the main characters is to stop the black smoke's destructive effects on planets.

== Origin ==
Seemingly all the black smoke in the galaxy originates from the [[black smoke planet]], a planet covered in the substance. This planet appears in both ''[[BYE-BYE BOXBOY!]]'', and in a more powerful form in ''[[BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!]]''.

== In Games ==

=== ''[[BOXBOY! (game)|BOXBOY!]]'' ===
[[Qbby (Trilogy)|Qbby]] wakes up on a planet covered in Black Smoke at the beginning of ''BOXBOY!''. Along with [[Qucy (Trilogy)|Qucy]] and [[Qudy]] he restores the planet to its original green state.

=== ''BOXBOXBOY!'' ===
While the black smoke is not prominent in this game, it does appear in the post-credit scene foreshadowing the events of ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!''.

=== ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'' ===
In ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'', Qbby must travel across several planets that are covered with Black Smoke.

=== ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'' ===
In the first ending of ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'', a meteor sent from the black smoke planet crashes into the planet, covering it in Black Smoke. This is prevented in the alternate ending by [[Qbby (BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!)|Qbby]]'s [[Miracle Boy|fragments]] creating a second box who helps him activate the final machine on the surface of the meteor.

In [[A Tall Tale]], Qudy uses lasers on the Box Planet to weaken the black smoke planet, eventually weakening it to the point that Qudy lands on the planet itself and uses the power gained from clearing Worlds to weaken the planet further. His attempt fails due to a warphole spawning, which sucks the entire planet inside. Qudy instead uses his newfound power to teleport outside the planet, where the Box Ship sucks him up - with two boxes resembling Qbby and Qucy inside.

'''World 22''', also known as '''Creative Combos 2''' (JP: 可能性は無限大ハコ2セットその2), is the second and final Creative Combos world in ''BOXBOY!'', and the last World in the game overall. It, like [[World 21 (BOXBOY!)|World 21]], is unlocked upon completion of the Bonus Worlds.

World 22 continues the usage of combos, or creating two sets of boxes at once.

In Level 8, the final level of the game, the player is tasked with pressing one-time buttons to remove blocks in order to allow them to progress through the level. When all the one-time buttons have been pressed and no resets have been used, the remaining blocks spell out "HAL", representing the name of the game's development studio, [[HAL Laboratory]].

[[Category:Worlds]]
[[Category:BOXBOY!]]
==Trivia==

* The concept of creating two sets of boxes at once was revisited in ''BOXBOXBOY!'', with the ability being the sole focus of the game.
* Level 15-8 is the game's "HAL room". This is an easter egg hidden by the developers in various HAL Laboratory games where a secret room can be accessed showcasing the letters "HAL". The most famous example of this is the <nowiki>''</nowiki>Kirby<nowiki>''</nowiki> series' HAL rooms - however, unlike how ''BOXBOY!''<nowiki/>'s HAL rooms are dedicated levels intended to be played, the <nowiki>''</nowiki>Kirby<nowiki>''</nowiki> series HAL rooms are not meant to be found by the average player.

(game)|BOXBOY!]]'' ▪ ''[[BOXBOXBOY!]]'' ▪ ''[[BYE-BYE BOXBOY!]]''|firstgame={{BB}}|lastgame={{B-B BB}}}}

'''Qbby''' is the main protagonist and primary playable character of the ''[[BOXBOY! Trilogy|BOXBOY!]]'' [[BOXBOY! Trilogy|trilogy]]''.''
==Physical Appearance==
Qbby is a small white square box with two eyes and two legs.
==Biography==
As far as official material goes, Qbby fell from the sky. Like every other character in the series, Qbby has no audible dialogue, and as a result, not much is known about him.

However, Qbby does speak in the in-game comics, like the other characters. In the comics, Qbby is revealed to have a romantic relationship with Qucy.
==Gameplay==

=== ''[[BOXBOY! (game)|BOXBOY!]]'' ===
Qbby has the power to create more [[Box|boxes]] around him, though the number he can create depends on the certain stage he is in. Special costumes can change the gameplay slightly; for example, the [[Wizard]] [[:Category:Costumes|costume]] can increase his box limit.

=== ''[[BOXBOXBOY!]]'' ===
The same applies for the second installment in the series, except that Qbby can create two sets of boxes. The box limit now applies to both sets (not combined) as well. If save data is found from ''BOXBOY! ''and the user unlocked it, special costumes (like the Wizard costume) still work with their intended functions.

=== ''[[BYE-BYE BOXBOY!]]'' ===
Qbby can create one set of boxes, as per the first game. All rules from the original apply, except that in certain levels Qbby can be granted special [[abilities]] that allow his boxes to perform helpful actions. If save data is found from ''BOXBOY!'' and the user unlocked it, special costumes (like the Wizard costume) still work with their intended functions.

== Games ==

=== ''BOXBOY!'' ===
In ''BOXBOY!'', Qbby falls from the sky and wakes up in a world covered in [[Black Smoke|black smoke]]. He meets Qucy and Qudy, and together the three of them discover that the planet has been crashed into by a meteor. Eventually, Qbby and Qucy activate the final machine, restoring the planet, but sacrificing themselves in the process.

=== ''BOXBOXBOY!'' ===
In ''BOXBOXBOY!'', Qbby is joined by [[Planetron]], a being created by the planet, to help him restore himself and his friends.

=== ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'' ===
In ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'', Qbby travels between various planets and rescues the Qbabies.

== Appearances in other media ==

*Qbby appears as a collectible sticker in ''[https://wikirby.com/wiki/Kirby:_Planet_Robobot Kirby: Planet Robobot]''. Qbby also makes a small cameo in [https://wikirby.com/wiki/Kirby_Star_Allies ''Kirby Star Allies'']; one of the possible forms Kirby can take with the Stone ability shows Qbby sitting on the [[HAL Laboratory]]'s Yamanashi R&D Center next to Mt. Fuji.
*Qbby makes cameos in ''[https://part-time-ufo.fandom.com/wiki/Part_Time_UFO Part Time UFO]''<ref>''Part Time UFO'' launch trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lijECqltYNU</ref>, appearing in the background of levels.
**A costume is also available for purchase in Part Time UFO called "Qbby's UFO" which, when equipped, makes the player resemble Qbby, and, in 2-player mode on the Nintendo Switch version, the second player's costume resembles [[Qucy]]
*Qbby appears as a Support spirit in ''[https://www.ssbwiki.com/Super_Smash_Bros._Ultimate Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]''. He is an ace level spirit that gives players an [https://www.ssbwiki.com/Ore_Club Ore Club] in battle.
*Qbby makes an appearance in all six of the ''[https://nintendo-badge-arcade.fandom.com/wiki/BOXBOY! BOXBOY!]'' sets available in ''[https://nintendo-badge-arcade.fandom.com/wiki/Nintendo_Badge_Arcade Nintendo Badge Arcade]''.

==Trivia==
*Qbby is technically a cube, not a square. Due to the 2D format of every game in the series, he is always depicted as a square in-game. Some of the [[comics]] and the Qbby [[amiibo]], among other material, depict Qbby as a cube.<ref>''[[BYE-BYE BOXBOY!]]'' launch trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P60cMyXxlDE</ref>
*In one of the unlockable comics in ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'', Qbby is seen wearing [https://wikirby.com/wiki/Robobot_Armor Robobot Armor] - this is a reference to [https://wikirby.com/wiki/Kirby:_Planet_Robobot ''Kirby: Planet Robobot''].
*Qbby is not a good chef.<ref>[[Chef]] description, ''"Qbby has never been a great chef"''</ref>
*It is speculated that Qbby is the unnamed [[Qbaby]] with blue cheeks from ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'' as an adult, however this is unconfirmed.
*Qbby's name is said to "seem familiar somehow..." which may imply that his name is meant to be a parody of Kirby, the main protagonist of another game series made by HAL Laboratory.<ref>https://www.nintendo.com/en-gb/News/2017/October/Nintendo-eShop-sale-BOXBOY-2-5th-Anniversary-Sale-1287036.html</ref>

Black Smoke

[[File:2023-11-15 13-47-55.684 top.png|thumb|The Projector on the World Map.]]The '''Projector''' is a device accessible on ''BOXBOY!’''s World Map after completing [[World 7 (BOXBOY!)|World 7]]. Like [[Machine|Machines]], it is not a level but rather an important aspect of the series' story.

</gallery>
Upon completing World 7, the projector is accessible and available for use whenever the player wants to, where it can be accessed by approaching it and pressing A. If it's accessed, the camera pans up slightly, the Bottom Screen's World Map controls disappear, and Qbby's controls are locked by the game and cannot be used by the player. [[Qbby (Trilogy)|Qbby]], along with any of [[Qucy (Trilogy)|his]] [[Qudy|friends]] (if available) automatically move to a predetermined location. When the Projector starts up, the camera pans up even more so the Projector footage can be shown. The Projector then projects a flickering slideshow of four images of the [[Box Planet]], which supposedly took place before the events of the game.

The footage can be manually advanced by the player by pressing the A button. The first is a video of the Box Planet, with the [[Box Ship]] hovering above it. The second image shows the two objects from before along with a large meteor, appearing to be made out of [[Black Smoke]], on a direct collision course with the Box Planet. The third image shows the meteor very close to hitting the planet, and some decay is seen on the planet right next to its impact site. If this is the player's first time using the Projector, Qbby, along with his friends if they've been unlocked, will jump into the air in fear and begin to panic. If the player has already used the Projector before, Qbby and his friends do not react.

The fourth and final image shows the meteor having finally crashed on the planet, causing a large Black Smoke bubble-like object (presumably the meteor) to appear on the impact site, along with a large amount of decay on the surface of the planet's top half visibly spreading over the course of a few seconds. The Projector then turns itself off. If this is the player's first time viewing the Projector, Qbby and his friends will look at each other and seemingly talk to each other for a few seconds, before the game allows the player to take control of Qbby again. If the player has already used the Projector, this interaction does not take place, and after the camera pans back down, and again towards Qbby, the game gives the controls back to the player, and the Bottom Screen's World Map touch controls reappear again.

==Trivia==
*''BOXBOY!'' is the only game in the series to contain the Projector.

{{Stub}}{{Spoiler}}{{Character|name=Planetron|friends=[[Qbby (Trilogy)|Qbby]]|games={{BBB}}|image=Planetron.png}}

'''Planetron''' is a character in ''[[BOXBOXBOY!]]'' who helps [[Qbby (Trilogy)|Qbby]] throughout the game by giving him power-ups and [[abilities]].

== Physical Appearance ==
Planetron is a green square with a ring encircling it and two small black squares orbitting it. It looks similar to the [[Box Planet]].

== ''[[BOXBOXBOY!]]'' ==
Planetron's first and only appearance in the [[BOXBOY!

It grants Qbby his new ability to create two sets of [[Box|boxes]]. Each time Qbby completes a level in ''BOXBOXBOY!'', Planetron uses its power to help him get closer to saving Qucy and [[Qudy]], and, eventually, to revive Qbby himself.

'''Qbby''' is the main protagonist and primary playable character of the ''[[BOXBOY! Trilogy|BOXBOY!]]'' [[BOXBOY! Trilogy|trilogy]]''.''
==Physical Appearance==
Qbby is a small white square box with two eyes and two legs.
==Biography==
As far as official material goes, Qbby fell from the sky. Like every other character in the series, Qbby has no audible dialogue, and as a result, not much is known about him.

However, Qbby does speak in the in-game comics, like the other characters. In the comics, Qbby is revealed to have a romantic relationship with Qucy.
==Gameplay==

=== ''[[BOXBOY! (game)|BOXBOY!]]'' ===
Qbby has the power to create more [[Box|boxes]] around him, though the number he can create depends on the certain stage he is in. Special costumes can change the gameplay slightly; for example, the [[Wizard]] [[:Category:Costumes|costume]] can increase his box limit.

=== ''[[BOXBOXBOY!]]'' ===
The same applies for the second installment in the series, except that Qbby can create two sets of boxes. The box limit now applies to both sets (not combined) as well. If save data is found from ''BOXBOY! ''and the user unlocked it, special costumes (like the Wizard costume) still work with their intended functions.

=== ''[[BYE-BYE BOXBOY!]]'' ===
Qbby can create one set of boxes, as per the first game. All rules from the original apply, except that in certain levels Qbby can be granted special [[abilities]] that allow his boxes to perform helpful actions. If save data is found from ''BOXBOY!'' and the user unlocked it, special costumes (like the Wizard costume) still work with their intended functions.

== Games ==

=== ''BOXBOY!'' ===
In ''BOXBOY!'', Qbby falls from the sky and wakes up in a world covered in [[Black Smoke|black smoke]]. He meets Qucy and Qudy, and together the three of them discover that the planet has been crashed into by a meteor. Eventually, Qbby and Qucy activate the final machine, restoring the planet, but sacrificing themselves in the process.

=== ''BOXBOXBOY!'' ===
In ''BOXBOXBOY!'', Qbby is joined by [[Planetron]], a being created by the planet, to help him restore himself and his friends.

=== BYE-BYE BOXBOY! ===
In ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'', Qbby travels between various planets and rescues the Qbabies.

== Appearances in other media ==

*Qbby appears as a collectible sticker in ''[https://wikirby.com/wiki/Kirby:_Planet_Robobot Kirby: Planet Robobot]''. Qbby also makes a small cameo in [https://wikirby.com/wiki/Kirby_Star_Allies ''Kirby Star Allies'']; one of the possible forms Kirby can take with the Stone ability shows Qbby sitting on the [[HAL Laboratory]]'s Yamanashi R&D Center next to Mt. Fuji.
*Qbby makes cameos in ''[https://part-time-ufo.fandom.com/wiki/Part_Time_UFO Part Time UFO]''<ref>''Part Time UFO'' launch trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lijECqltYNU</ref>, appearing in the background of levels.
**A costume is also available for purchase in Part Time UFO called "Qbby's UFO" which, when equipped, makes the player resemble Qbby, and, in 2-player mode on the Nintendo Switch version, the second player's costume resembles [[Qucy]]
*Qbby appears as a Support spirit in ''[https://www.ssbwiki.com/Super_Smash_Bros._Ultimate Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]''. He is an ace level spirit that gives players an [https://www.ssbwiki.com/Ore_Club Ore Club] in battle.

==Trivia==
*Qbby is technically a cube, not a square. Due to the 2D format of every game in the series, he is always depicted as a square in-game. Some of the [[comics]] and the Qbby [[amiibo]], among other material, depict Qbby as a cube.<ref>''[[BYE-BYE BOXBOY!]]'' launch trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P60cMyXxlDE</ref>
*In one of the unlockable comics in ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'', Qbby is seen wearing [https://wikirby.com/wiki/Robobot_Armor Robobot Armor] - this is a reference to [https://wikirby.com/wiki/Kirby:_Planet_Robobot ''Kirby: Planet Robobot''].
*Qbby is not a good chef.<ref>[[Chef]] description, ''"Qbby has never been a great chef"''</ref>
*It is speculated that Qbby is the unnamed [[Qbaby]] with blue cheeks from ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'' as an adult, however this is unconfirmed.
*Qbby's name is said to "seem familiar somehow..." which may imply that his name is meant to be a parody of Kirby, the main protagonist of another game series made by HAL Laboratory.<ref>https://www.nintendo.com/en-gb/News/2017/October/Nintendo-eShop-sale-BOXBOY-2-5th-Anniversary-Sale-1287036.html</ref>

BOXBOY! Day

QuagisCool: Added Italics

{{Stub}}

'''''BOXBOY!'' Day''' is an unofficial holiday created by [[HAL Laboratory]], which was made to promote the [[BOXBOY! (series)|''BOXBOY!'' series]]. It takes place annually on the fifth of August.
==Events==
As ''BOXBOY!'' Day is not a real holiday, no major events take place during it. The most common thing that HAL Laboratory has done during ''BOXBOY!'' Day is merely just to mention it on social media.

On rare occasions, however, HAL has commemorated the day with events. For example, between August 5th and August 31st of 2018, [[UNIQLO x BOXBOY! (game)|''UNIQLO x BOXBOY!'']] held a special event for ''BOXBOY!'' Day where players with the highest scores could win prizes, such as a [[Qbby (Trilogy)|Qbby]] keychain or ''BOXBOY!'' comic book. The grand prize for the player who scored the most points over the course of the event was a copy of ''Hakoboy! Stuffed Box''.<ref>https://www.uniqlo.com/jp/hakoboy/85days/2018/index.html</ref>

Unofficially, some fans of the ''BOXBOY!'' series may celebrate ''BOXBOY!'' Day on social media platforms, such as Discord and X (formerly Twitter), or draw fan art commemorating the day.
==Trivia==
*The date "08/05" can be read in Japanese as "ha ko". ハコ (Hako) is the Japanese word for "box".

Shop

2025-01-20T13:08:36Z

QuagisCool: Added Italics

[[File:Shop.png|thumb|The Shop's location in ''BOXBOY!'']]
The '''Shop''' is a recurring location within the ''BOXBOY!'' series where the player can purchase various items. These items are not required to complete the game, they are either meant to make levels easier to complete or they just serve as fun novelties with no gameplay benefit. Throughout the four main games in the series, the Shop has changed in terms of presentation, what items can be purchased, and the currencies required to purchase said items, but its most notable redesign was in [[Shop#BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!|''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'']].

== ''[[BOXBOY! (game)|BOXBOY!]]''==
[[File:BBShopInterface.png|thumb|The Shop, as seen in ''BOXBOY!'']]
The first major version of the Shop was introduced in ''BOXBOY!'' and would remain until ''[[BYE-BYE BOXBOY!]]''. The only currency used in the first version of the shop are [[Medal|Medals]].

In he shop sells [[:Category:Costumes|costumes]], the [[Music|game's original soundtrack]] (each track is sold individually), challenge stages (in the form of [[Time Attack]] and [[Score Attack]] stages), and [[Tips and Tricks|tip books]].

==''[[BOXBOXBOY!]]''==
[[File:BBBShopInterface.png|thumb|The Shop, as seen in ''BOXBOXBOY!'']]
In ''BOXBOXBOY!'', the shop's items have been modified. The "Tips and Tricks" section is removed and can instead be viewed for free on the pause menu, and [[Comics|short comics]] replace it in the Shop. Time Attack and Score Attack were completely absent from this game, and were instead replaced with [[World CW (BOXBOXBOY!)|World CW]], a free unlockable challenge world in which Qbby must complete a level using a special costume.

==''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!''==
[[File:B-BBBShopInterface.png|thumb|The Shop, as seen in BYE-BYE BOXBOY!]]
The shop's items were also modified in ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'', with more new costumes to unlock with medals or [[Amiibo]], comics and songs. Challenge Stages returned in this game, this time being fairly short levels that have to be completed without jumping, using the Up Hook, etc.

==''[[BOXBOY! Series Demo Version]]''==
The most barebones Shop to date for obvious reasons, ''BOXBOY! Series Demo Version'' only has costumes and comics available for purchase, which are assortments of the costumes and comics from the previous games.

==''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!''==
In ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'', the shop was completely revamped for the first time since the series' inception, both in terms of what items can be purchased and how they can be bought.

The Shop now uses two currencies: Medals return and are joined by the new Target Medals. Medals are used to purchase Assist Items, music, Balloon Challenge stages, and comics, and Target Medals are used to purchase a random accessory from the dress-up box. Costumes were also revamped in this game, as instead of paying for costumes directly, [[accessories]] are randomly drawn from the Dress-up Box for 30 Target Medals. New to this Shop are [[Assist Items|assist items]], which can be used during stage selection to make levels slightly easier for the player to complete. Songs and comics return as normal, and Challenge Levels also make a return in this game, as [[Balloon Challenge|Balloon Challenges]].

{{Shop description|This special costume increases your speed. It's perfect when you need to be light on your feet.}}

'''Ninja''' is a special costume introduced in ''[[BOXBOY!]]'' that can be unlocked and purchased after completing the main game. It increases the player's speed.

==Use in speedrunning==
As the Ninja costume increases the player's speed, the costume is an essential item in [[BOXBOY! speedrunning|''BOXBOY!'' speedrunning]], specifically during the "All Worlds" and "All Crowns" runs. To save time, after the credits have played, runners will buy and equip the Ninja costume from the Shop. While it can only be unlocked late-game, it only costs roughly 30 seconds to buy an item that can ultimately remove entire minutes of the player walking.

(game)|BOXBOY!]]'' ▪ ''[[BOXBOXBOY!]]'' ▪ ''[[BYE-BYE BOXBOY!]]''|firstgame={{BB}}|lastgame={{B-B BB}}}}

'''Qbby''' is the main protagonist and primary playable character of the ''[[BOXBOY! Trilogy|BOXBOY!]]'' [[BOXBOY! Trilogy|Trilogy]]''.''
==Physical Appearance==
Qbby is a small white square box with two eyes and two legs.
==Biography==
As far as official material goes, Qbby fell from the sky. Like every other character in the series, Qbby has no audible dialogue, and as a result, not much is known about him.

However, Qbby does speak in the in-game comics, like the other characters. In the comics, Qbby is revealed to have a romantic relationship with Qucy.
==Gameplay==

=== ''[[BOXBOY! (game)|BOXBOY!]]'' ===
Qbby has the power to create more [[Box|boxes]] around him, though the number he can create depends on the certain stage he is in. Special costumes can change the gameplay slightly; for example, the [[Wizard]] [[:Category:Costumes|costume]] can increase his box limit.

=== ''[[BOXBOXBOY!]]'' ===
The same applies for the second installment in the series, except that Qbby can create two sets of boxes. The box limit now applies to both sets (not combined) as well. If save data is found from ''BOXBOY! ''and the user unlocked it, special costumes (like the Wizard costume) still work with their intended functions.

=== ''[[BYE-BYE BOXBOY!]]'' ===
Qbby can create one set of boxes, as per the first game. All rules from the original apply, except that in certain levels Qbby can be granted special [[abilities]] that allow his boxes to perform helpful actions. If save data is found from ''BOXBOY!'' and the user unlocked it, special costumes (like the Wizard costume) still work with their intended functions.

== Games ==

=== ''BOXBOY!'' ===
In ''BOXBOY!'', Qbby falls from the sky and wakes up in a world covered in [[Black Smoke|black smoke]]. He meets Qucy and Qudy, and together the three of them discover that the planet has been crashed into by a meteor. Eventually, Qbby and Qucy activate the final machine, restoring the planet, but sacrificing themselves in the process.

=== ''BOXBOXBOY!'' ===
In ''BOXBOXBOY!'', Qbby is joined by [[Planetron]], a being created by the planet, to help him restore himself and his friends.

=== BYE-BYE BOXBOY! ===
In ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'', Qbby travels between various planets and rescues the Qbabies.

== Appearances in other media ==

*Qbby appears as a collectible sticker in ''[https://wikirby.com/wiki/Kirby:_Planet_Robobot Kirby: Planet Robobot]''. Qbby also makes a small cameo in [https://wikirby.com/wiki/Kirby_Star_Allies ''Kirby Star Allies'']; one of the possible forms Kirby can take with the Stone ability shows Qbby sitting on the [[HAL Laboratory]]'s Yamanashi R&D Center next to Mt. Fuji.
*Qbby makes cameos in ''[https://part-time-ufo.fandom.com/wiki/Part_Time_UFO Part Time UFO]''<ref>''Part Time UFO'' launch trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lijECqltYNU</ref>, appearing in the background of levels.
**A costume is also available for purchase in Part Time UFO called "Qbby's UFO" which, when equipped, makes the player resemble Qbby, and, in 2-player mode on the Nintendo Switch version, the second player's costume resembles [[Qucy]]
*Qbby appears as a Support spirit in ''[https://www.ssbwiki.com/Super_Smash_Bros._Ultimate Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]''. He is an ace level spirit that gives players an [https://www.ssbwiki.com/Ore_Club Ore Club] in battle.
*Qbby makes an appearance in all six of the ''[https://nintendo-badge-arcade.fandom.com/wiki/BOXBOY! BOXBOY!]'' sets available in ''[https://nintendo-badge-arcade.fandom.com/wiki/Nintendo_Badge_Arcade Nintendo Badge Arcade]''.

==Trivia==
*Qbby is technically a cube, not a square. Due to the 2D format of every game in the series, he is always depicted as a square in-game. Some of the [[comics]] and the Qbby [[amiibo]], among other material, depict Qbby as a cube.<ref>''[[BYE-BYE BOXBOY!]]'' launch trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P60cMyXxlDE</ref>
*In one of the unlockable comics in ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'', Qbby is seen wearing [https://wikirby.com/wiki/Robobot_Armor Robobot Armor] - this is a reference to [https://wikirby.com/wiki/Kirby:_Planet_Robobot ''Kirby: Planet Robobot''].
*Qbby is not a good chef.<ref>[[Chef]] description, ''"Qbby has never been a great chef"''</ref>
*It is speculated that Qbby is the unnamed [[Qbaby]] with blue cheeks from ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'' as an adult, however this is unconfirmed.
*Qbby's name is said to "seem familiar somehow..." which may imply that his name is meant to be a parody of Kirby, the main protagonist of another game series made by HAL Laboratory.<ref>https://www.nintendo.com/en-gb/News/2017/October/Nintendo-eShop-sale-BOXBOY-2-5th-Anniversary-Sale-1287036.html</ref>

</gallery>
Upon completing World 7, the projector is accessible and available for use whenever the player wants to, where it can be accessed by approaching it and pressing A. If it's accessed, the camera pans up slightly, the Bottom Screen's World Map controls disappear, and Qbby's controls are locked by the game and cannot be used by the player. [[Qbby (Trilogy)|Qbby]], along with any of [[Qucy (Trilogy)|his]] [[Qudy|friends]] (if available) automatically move to a predetermined location. When the Projector starts up, the camera pans up even more so the Projector footage can be shown. The Projector then projects a flickering slideshow of four images of the [[Box Planet]], which supposedly took place before the events of the game.

The footage can be manually advanced by the player by pressing the A button. The first is a video of the Box Planet, with the [[Box Ship]] hovering above it. The second image shows the two objects from before along with a large meteor, appearing to be made out of [[Black Smoke]], on a direct collision course with the Box Planet. The third image shows the meteor very close to hitting the planet, and some decay is seen on the planet right next to its impact site. If this is the player's first time using the Projector, Qbby, along with his friends if they've been unlocked, will jump into the air in fear and begin to panic. If the player has already used the Projector before, Qbby and his friends do not react.

The fourth and final image shows the meteor having finally crashed on the planet, causing a large Black Smoke bubble-like object (presumably the meteor) to appear on the impact site, along with a large amount of decay on the surface of the planet's top half visibly spreading over the course of a few seconds. The Projector then turns itself off. If this is the player's first time viewing the Projector, Qbby and his friends will look at each other and seemingly talk to each other for a few seconds, before the game allows the player to take control of Qbby again. If the player has already used the Projector, this interaction does not take place, and after the camera pans back down, and again towards Qbby, the game gives the controls back to the player, and the Bottom Screen's World Map touch controls reappear again.

==Trivia==
*''BOXBOY!'' is the only game in the series to contain the Projector.

Upon completing World 7, the projector is accessible and available for use whenever the player wants to, where it can be accessed by approaching it and pressing A. If it's accessed, the camera pans up slightly, the Bottom Screen's World Map controls disappear, and Qbby's controls are locked by the game and cannot be used by the player. [[Qbby (Trilogy)|Qbby]], along with any of [[Qucy (Trilogy)|his]] [[Qudy|friends]] (if available) automatically move to a predetermined location. When the Projector starts up, the camera pans up even more so the Projector footage can be shown. The Projector then projects a flickering slideshow of four images of the [[Box Planet]], which supposedly took place before the events of the game.

The footage can be manually advanced by the player by pressing the A button. The first is a video of the Box Planet, with the [[Box Ship]] hovering above it. The second image shows the two objects from before along with a large meteor, appearing to be made out of [[Black Smoke]], on a direct collision course with the Box Planet. The third image shows the meteor very close to hitting the planet, and some decay is seen on the planet right next to its impact site. If this is the player's first time using the Projector, Qbby, along with his friends if they've been unlocked, will jump into the air in fear and begin to panic. If the player has already used the Projector before, Qbby and his friends do not react.

The fourth and final image shows the meteor having finally crashed on the planet, causing a large Black Smoke bubble-like object (presumably the meteor) to appear on the impact site, along with a large amount of decay on the surface of the planet's top half visibly spreading over the course of a few seconds. The Projector then turns itself off. If this is the player's first time viewing the Projector, Qbby and his friends will look at each other and seemingly talk to each other for a few seconds, before the game allows the player to take control of Qbby again. If the player has already used the Projector, this interaction does not take place, and after the camera pans back down, and again towards Qbby, the game gives the controls back to the player, and the Bottom Screen's World Map touch controls reappear again.

==Trivia==
*''BOXBOY!'' is the only game in the series to contain the Projector.

'''Qucy''' is one of the three main protagonists in the [[BOXBOY! Trilogy|''BOXBOY!'' Trilogy]]. She looks just like [[Qbby (Trilogy)|Qbby]], only she has a bow and eyelashes.

== Biography ==
As far as official material goes, Qucy originated from the [[Box Ship]], which she exited after Qbby pressed a button in ''[[BOXBOY!]]''. Like every other character in the series, Qucy has no audible dialogue, and as a result, not much is known about her. Her name even went unknown until the release of ''[[BOXBOXBOY!]]''.

However, Qucy does speak in the in-game [[comics]], like the other characters. In the comics, Qucy is revealed to have a romantic relationship with Qbby.

== Physical Appearance ==
In the [[BOXBOY! Trilogy|''BOXBOY!'' Trilogy]], Qucy is a small square box with two eyes and two legs. She has a big bow on the top of her head, as well as long eyelashes, and other than these features she is identical to [[Qbby (Trilogy)|Qbby]].

== Games ==

==== ''BOXBOY!'' ====
Qucy appears as a non-playable character in ''[[BOXBOY!]]''. She is encountered after completing the second [[Worlds|world]], where she falls from a Box Ship.

==== ''BOXBOXBOY!'' ====
Qucy appears as a non-playable character in ''[[BOXBOXBOY!]]''.

==== ''BYE-BYE BOXBOY!'' ====
Qucy appears as a main character in ''[[BYE-BYE BOXBOY!]]''. If the player either completes all the courses or scans the Qbby amiibo, Qucy is unlocked as a costume.

The [[BOXBOY! (series)|''BOXBOY!'' series]] contains multiple 4-koma style tie-in comics, which are either available online or in-game. In ''BOXBOY!'', comics were not available in-game, and were instead available as tie-in comics provided at Nintendo's websites for ''BOXBOY!'', such as boxboy.nintendo.com. Beginning with ''[[BOXBOXBOY!]]'', comics were added to the [[Shop]].

For many years following their removal from the Nintendo website in 2019, these comics did not resurface on the known internet for many years due to a failure to publicly archive them. In 2024, however, a few fans of the game provided their copies of these comics, and they can now be documented on the BOXBOY WIKI!. "Out of Proportion", however, has yet to be found. For this reason, the comic has been substituted with its Japanese version. If you have any screenshots or archives of the English translation of "Out of Proportion" for personal use, you are highly encouraged to share it with the BOXBOY! community for archival purposes and to help the BOXBOY WIKI! complete its library of comics. ''The ''BOXBOY WIKI!'' would like to thank the following individuals for helping us locate the previously missing comics:
* [[User:Audaaa|Audaaa]] and several others for finding "The Awakening"
* TheBrawlGirl for finding "A Legend is Born" and "Box House"
* Thermospore for finding "Danger!"''

* The above online comics were available for viewing on Play Nintendo and boxboy.nintendo.com/extras.
* A few Japan-exclusive comics in the ''BOXBOY!'' trilogy which make fun of Qucy's weight were not included in international versions of the games, most likely due to their material being considered inappropriate or sensitive in some regions.

'''Send Demo''' is a feature introduced (and currently exclusive to) ''BOXBOY!''. It allows a player to locally communicate with another console in the Nintendo 3DS family to distribute the [[BOXBOY! Demo|''BOXBOY! Demo'']] using Download Play.

== Trivia ==

* As the ''BOXBOY! Demo'' was never available for download on Nintendo eShop, this feature is the only way to obtain it.
** By extension, the ''BOXBOY! Demo'' will be the only Nintendo 3DS ''BOXBOY!'' game still legally obtainable digitally upon the eShop's closure due to it only being obtainable through Download Play.
* This feature requires at least two consoles.
* This feature is the only feature in the entirety of the [[BOXBOY! (series)|''BOXBOY!'' series]] that allows for local communication with other systems, as ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'' only includes "couch co-op" multiplayer.

'''''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!''''' is a puzzle platformer video game developed by [[HAL Laboratory]] and published by [[Nintendo]] for the Nintendo Switch system on April 26, 2019. It is the first mainline ''[[BOXBOY! (series)|BOXBOY!]]'' game on a device other than the 3DS, and is heavily focused on two-player. The game has the most stages of any in the series, with 270 between the 3 campaigns.

The game will be backwards-compatible with the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 console that will launch in 2025, making this the first game in the series to be backwards-compatible with another console.<ref>https://x.com/NintendoCoLtd/status/1853972163033968794</ref>

== Description ==

=== English (US) ===
Think outside the box to save a world in peril! As Qbby or Qucy, you'll create boxes and use them to surmount more than 270 puzzling stages—the most in the series to date! The box planet is plagued with obstacles, so jump, climb, drift, ride, and warp your way past them in three modes, complete with their own stories, stages, challenges, and techniques. You can even team up for a 2-player adventure starring both star-crossed boxes!

A Tale for Two is a new mode in which—for the first time in the series—two players can work together to solve puzzles... Or one brave player can alternate between Qbby and Qucy! On top of that, there's a third adventure starring Qudy, the tall one, and thanks to his extra-tall boxes, you'll even have to think outside the rectangle! As you beat stages, you'll uncover more, and if you're efficient, earn medals you can use to score everything from boxy accessories to simple comics to helpful items at the in-game shop. Got your eye on a sweet sailor costume? Then try Balloon Challenge: if you get all ten balloons before the time runs out, you'll score extra medals!

=== English (UK) ===
The fan-favourite 2D puzzle-platformer series comes to Nintendo Switch, in ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'' Think outside the box – alone or with a friend in co-op – as you help Qbby and his pals solve tricky puzzles across 270 brainteasing stages!

==Plot==
[[Qbby (BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!)|Qbby]] enters through a level door into a green field and sees [[Qucy (BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!)|Qucy]] who is with two [[Qbaby|Qbabies]], one with blue cheeks and one with red cheeks. A meteor falls between the [[Box Baby|red-cheeked Qbaby]] and the others, separating the ground.

After [[Box Dad]] and [[Box Mom]] enter through a level door into a green field, black meteors begin falling from the sky and the ground turns black. They encounter Box Baby, who then joins them. After traversing a few [[worlds]], a chunk of the meteor hits the ground the three are standing on, sending them underground. They find the [[Box Ship]], so Box Mom gives her bow to Box Baby and her and Box Dad sacrifice themselves to power it so that Box Baby can board it and escape the planet.

At the beginning of [[World 5 (BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!)|World 5]], Qbby and Qucy encounter a grey [[Qudy]] and manage to restore him. He then accompanies the group. Qbby, Qucy, Qudy, and the blue-cheeked Qbaby find the Box Ship that Box Baby boarded, and they abduct all four into the Box Ship to help them escape the [[Black Smoke|black smoke]] and meteors falling on the planet. After Qbby, Qucy, and the Qbabies are reunited, the Box Ship's monitor shows that the meteors falling onto the planets are caused by a purple cloud. It sends a giant meteor at the planet, prompting Qbby and Qucy to go onto the surface of the large meteor in order to destroy it before it can make contact with the planet. The Box Ship shoots three drills which connect with the meteor in various places, slowing it down.

Qudy goes back to the surface of the planet in order to destroy the purple cloud. By collecting four fragments from different worlds, Qudy powers a machine that shoots two lasers directly into the purple cloud, substantially weakening it. The Qbabies arrive to take Qudy into the purple cloud so that he can destroy it. A portal opens in space after he partially blows it up and begins sucking the cloud into it, causing him to panic, but he is teleported off-planet and into space, where is he rescued by two boxes who resemble Qbby and Qucy. The Box Ship then veers toward the now-decayed Box Planet.

Meanwhile, Qbby and Qucy travel across the meteor in order to power the drills. They encounter a separate box who sacrifices themselves to power the first drill, which cracks the meteor. Later, Qucy sacrifices herself to activate the second drill, which causes a second crack in the meteor.

====First Ending====
At the end of the last world, if the story is completed without gaining all four [[Miracle Boy|fragments]], Qbby finds that the final drill requires two boxes instead of one. He sits down in the gap and closes his eyes before the smoke covers the entire area. The meteor, undestroyed, crashes into the planet, causing it to fall apart. A grey Qbby then falls onto the broken planet with his eyes shut. The credits then roll. At the end of the credits, a post-credit scene is shown where a white box falls from the sky next to the grey Qbby. At the bottom right screen, the text "To be continued" shows.

While unconfirmed, it is commonly believed that this ending leads to ''[[BOXBOY! (game)|BOXBOY!]]''<nowiki/>'s beginning.

====Second Ending====
If the story is completed after gaining all four fragments (by completing all stories), Qbby arrives at the final drill and notices that it requires two boxes instead of one. He sits in the drill and closes his eyes. The four fragments then combine to create a second box which is glowing. It sits in the other gap of the drill, allowing it to be activated, which subsequently destroys the meteor. The black smoke moves away from the planet and it is green again. The credits roll, showing the Qbabies playing and running around on a green field after the world has been saved. They then look up as the camera pans up to reveal space, where, as the "The End" text appears, four stars glow for a brief moment.

==Characters==
<blockquote>''Main article: [[:Category:Characters|Characters]]''</blockquote>''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'' features 3 playable characters. In single-player mode, the player plays as Qbby or Qucy (switchable using ZR and ZL on the Switch controller), featuring the moves and [[abilities]] from previous games. In two-player, the first player is Box Dad, while the second player is Box Mom. There is no actual difference between them, besides Box Mom's [[Box|boxes]] having a bow on them to prevent confusion. After beating either "A Tale For One" or "A Tale For Two", a bonus campaign featuring Qudy is unlocked. Being taller than the other characters, Qudy's boxes are rectangular and he can turn sideways to make horizontal boxes instead of vertical.

== Game Modes==

===A Tale For One===
''"1 player: A brave youth stands against the danger that threatens the world! The main story"''

A Tale For One is a single player story in ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!'' where the player controls Qbby or Qucy through various levels. In this game mode, the player can switch between playing as Qbby and Qucy who mechanically have no difference.

=== A Tale For Two===
''"1-2 players: An adventure for two to protect the planet! Work together to reach the goal!"''

A Tale For Two is ''BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!''<nowiki/>'s multiplayer mode where player 1 controls Box Dad and player 2 controls Box Mom. Appearance and gameplay-wise, these characters are identical to Qbby and Qucy.

===A Tall Tale===
''"1 player: The tall one stirs...! A third story to sink your teeth into."''

A Tall Tale is a game mode unlockable by completing one of the other two. Players control Qudy who creates oblong boxes instead of squares.

==Trivia==

*''BOXBOY + BOXGIRL!'' is the first game in the [[BOXBOY! (series)|''BOXBOY!'' series]] which features multiplayer.
*This game is the first (and currently only) ''BOXBOY!'' title available on Nintendo Switch
*This game is the only mainline ''BOXBOY!'' game which has never been [[Hakoboy! Stuffed Box|released physically]] in cartridge form.
**A physical download card which contains a code to download the game from Nintendo eShop was released exclusively in Japan.
*This game has a total of 270 levels across all campaigns combined, making it the ''BOXBOY!'' game with the highest level count as of 2024.
*This game's [[shop]] is completely overhauled from previous entries in the series, not only in obtainable items but also its layout being an area the player can walk in rather than a UI.
*This game is the first mainline game to not include [[Spiky]].
*This game is the first canon game to not take place during the events of the [[BOXBOY! trilogy|''BOXBOY!'' trilogy]].
**The placement of this game is debatable, however - see [[Lore of BOXBOY!|Lore of ''BOXBOY!'']] for further details.
*This game is the first (and only) ''BOXBOY!'' game which can be bought digitally from [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humble_Bundle Humble Bundle] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_(company) Amazon].
*This is the first mainline ''BOXBOY!'' game since [[BOXBOXBOY!]]''[[BOXBOXBOY!]]'' to not contain [[Amiibo]] support.
*This is the first mainline ''BOXBOY!'' game to not be a part of the [[BOXBOY! Trilogy|trilogy]].

*Unlike the previous 3DS entries in the ''BOXBOY!'' series, this game is intended to run at 60FPS rather than 30FPS.
**However, many critics reported in reviews that the game frequently dipped significantly below this frame rate.

* This game was built using the [[wikipedia:Unity (game engine)|Unity]] game engine as opposed to the custom engine used for the [[BOXBOY! trilogy|trilogy]] and many 3DS ''Kirby'' games.
**This is not the first ''BOXBOY!'' game to use an engine different from the one used in the trilogy; the first is ''[[UNIQLO x BOXBOY! (game)|UNIQLO x BOXBOY!]]'', which uses Cocos2d.
*As of March 27th, 2023, this is the only ''BOXBOY!'' title still available for purchase digitally.
*With the exception of the [[Qucy (costume)|Qucy costume]], this is the first ''BOXBOY!'' game in which Qucy is a playable character.
