User reviews

Users praise sand:box for its ad-free, offline gameplay and creative sandbox experience with a wide range of materials. The game is simple and enjoyable for players of all ages, backed by a fair premium purchase. However, multiple reviews highlight the absence of tutorials and explanations, limited undo and zoom functions, and unrealistic physics. Players also request enhancements such as sound effects, gravity options, and multiplayer features to enrich gameplay.

Cons

Lack of in-game tutorials or descriptions making it hard for new users to understand material functions.
No undo/redo functionality, causing frustration when mistakes are made.
Brush size adjustment and zoom options are limited and inconvenient to access.
Certain game physics and mechanics are unrealistic or inconsistent, leading to confusion.

Still have no idea how anything works in this game and yet I still find myself coming back over and over and just messing around. Mostly with uranium honestly. Lots of fun and it's good to see new stuff getting added. Only suggestion would be maybe adding some tips in game on how certain materials or objects function, as it's not always clear. Regardless, still lots of fun. Now back to building my nuclear reactor :P

This game is fun and amazing! I love to mess around with it, although I have one idea, and that would be really cool. Can you add a Material creator? I think it would be interesting if we could make our own materials, with their own colors, properties, e.t.c. We could make and save a few liquids, or powders, or a solid material, or a gas, give them custom colors, make them explosive, cold, hot, basically edit their temperature, e.t.c Also more save slots. Thanks for listening!
