Boxed In is one of those indie games that snuck up on me—I stumbled across it while browsing itch.io last year, and the minimalist puzzle design hooked me immediately. The short answer is: sometimes. The developer occasionally runs promotions or free weekends, especially during events like Steam Next Fest. I snagged my copy during one of those periods, but the regular price is usually under $10, which feels fair for how cleverly it plays with spatial reasoning.
What’s interesting is how the community around it has grown. There’s a Discord where fans share custom level codes, and the creator even spotlighted some player-made puzzles in an update. If you’re tight on cash, I’d recommend wishlisting it and keeping an eye on indie game bundles—it’s popped up in a few charity packs alongside gems like 'Baba Is You.' The tactile joy of sliding those cubes around is worth the wait for a sale, though.
