The Box is Alive

The Box is Alive is a 3D, physics-based platformer about a sentient package trying to deliver itself from a warehouse to a welcome mat. With no couriers around, you guide the box through dangerous levels, using careful movement and route planning to reach its destination on time.

The world of Boreal

Boreal was once the world’s dominant shipping service, but it is gone. The warehouse is dark and silent, and the humans have vanished. As you make your way through the levels, you can uncover what happened to Boreal and the humans, why the box is alive and whether something is watching you.

Movement and abilities

The movement system rewards creativity and precision: button-mashing is not enough to get through the obstacles. You unlock abilities as you progress, opening faster routes that carry greater risks. Triple-jump between shelves, glide across shredders and tilt around tight corners to find paths and speed up deliveries.

Playable characters

You can unlock cardboard companions as playable characters. Each has a distinct shape and playstyle, offering different ways to solve problems and navigate levels as they head toward their own destinations.
