Games

BOXBOY!

Qbby has the power to create more boxes around him, though the number he can create depends on the certain stage he is in. The Wizard costume can increase his box limit, but no costume can decrease it.

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, the Wizard costume still works.

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, the Wizard costume still works.

BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!

All rules from the original apply.
