Qubes

Qubes is an online game for two players, who roll cubes around an arena to color its tiles. You compete to color the majority of the map before the round ends; the first player to win three rounds takes the match. Rounds end when time runs out or the entire map has been colored.

Game modes

You can play with a dynamic ruleset, which changes the rules, or use custom rules that stay in place for the whole match. Dynamic rules can determine whether the map is static or dynamic, whether green tiles are destroyed or remain after being colored, the round length in seconds, and how many rolls each player makes with their own color and with green.

Coloring the map

After a certain number of rolls, both cubes turn green and color tiles green before returning to their original colors. Depending on the rules, green tiles may be destroyed or remain on the map. On a dynamic map, tiles can be recolored by the other player; on a static map, they cannot.

Powerups

Powerups can appear around the arena during a match and affect you or your opponent. They include row or column colorers, speed modifiers that can speed you up or slow the other player down, and a snowflake that freezes your opponent.
