One cubivore, called Killer Cubivore, has become too powerful. All the other cubivores are forced to serve him and nature is thrown out of balance. One cubivore is growing more powerful in order to defeat Killer Cubivore and nature.

Gameplay[edit]

In Cubivore, the object of the game is to kill Killer Cubivore's minions.After defeating the enemy, the player gets an object which they can use to upgrade their own cubivore. Through battling and mating, the player's cubivore slowly becomes more powerful.

Battling itself is simple enough. Cubivores can attack, block, run, jump, and evade. Battles are mostly a matter of memorizing the enemy's attack pattern and attacking it's weak spot.
