boxod is actually a collection of 4 puzzle games, each constructed of "boxes" stacked into cubes or pyramids. The game cubes or pyramids can contain from 2 to 8 Levels (rows and columns of boxes). The 6 faces of individual boxes can each show different colors and images. The games involve manipulating boxes and levels to match colors and images on each side of the overall cube or pyramid.

The 4 games are called Jigsaw Cube, Jumbled Cube, Jumbled Pyramid and Rebukes Cube. These games are easy for fairly young kids to learn, and yet provide enough challenge to interest people of all ages. A Control Panel contains simple and intuitive controls to manipulate game elements. Boxes can be "opened" by right-clicking the mouse to possibly reveal a helpful hint.
