	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 escape the planet.

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 escape the planet.

	At the beginning of [[World 5 ATfO (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 to help them escape the [[Black Smoke\|black smoke]], she abducts all four into the ship. 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 meteor's surface 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.

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.		Qudy goes back to the surface of the planet in order to destroy the purple cloud.

	<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~~.
