The game that made me skeptical of all early-access video games going forward. A damn shame cuz the beta I played was a lot of fun. A shame to see such potential squandered.

Solid foundation but extremely lacking in content. The Steam version is somehow worse than the Alpha release.

The alpha was so much better :(

It's a shame what happened to this game... I recall the alpha being much more fun.


In 6 years the game was completely killed. It’s impossible to play, talents and experience have been removed. They made a region lock, which forcibly takes away all your gear. It would be better if she remained an alpha and never left.

За 6 лет игру убили окончательно. Играть невозможно, убрали таланты, опыт. сделали регион лок, который насильно отнимает у тебя весь твой шмот. Лучше бы она оставалась альфой и никогда не вышла.

Ricordo chiaramente quanto fossi felice quando ho saputo che sarebbe uscito, e poi quanto fossi divertito dalle orribili scelte del dev. Peccato, aveva un gran potenziale.

Review is for the alpha version

This looked at the alpha release and what made it fun and decided to remove it

Cube World had amazing potential, but suffered from the sad reality of very distant developer who couldn't let go of his creation. Cube World Alpha was an amazing experience, and it brought me some of the most excitement I have ever had surrounding a game like this. Tragically, the excitement was crushed by unreleased updates. The worst part is that when an update was finally released, it completely ruined the game we had all come to know and love.

I would definitely recommend anyone who has not experienced this game to do so. However, make sure you play the Alpha version of the game, because the full release version on Steam is not the version of Cube World I would recommend to anyone. You can download Alpha copies of the game completely free these days and still have hours of fun with friends, or solo if that's your vibe.

A prime example of "procedurally generate everything" quickly leading to stale and predictable content. I am perhaps being too harsh, but despite offering everything, Cube World did not hold my attention for more than a single play session.

Actually, from what I remember, this game had some good ideas. Lots of theoretically interesting ways to incorporate procgen. The problem, as always, is without sufficient structure it ends up being nothing.

I think nostalgia propelled my expectations for this game a bit higher than need be, but that still doesn't explain why the alpha for this game that came out years ago had more to offer than the official release. The lack of post-launch support for the game isn't really helping its case either.

Le sale connard de dev qui a réussi à nous sortir une alpha incroyable pour revenir 4 ans après avec une bêta qui est nulle à chier

if it ever gets that Omega update then maybe ill see if its good again

Joguei um pouquinho logo quando lançou. Me agradou, mas não foi o suficiente para eu gastar muitas horas de jogo. Vi que o jogo segue com atualizações e espero que consiga se destacar com sua própria personalidade!

words simply cannot describe how destroyed I was after what they did to the original alpha version

Good game, could have potential, but the developers decided to cum

Foi um grande jogo durante seu alpha, depois se tornou uma das experiências mais decepcionantes.


Quadratisch, praktisch und wann kommt ein Update.

A ideia é muito boa, mas nunca vi um jogo tão grande, tão vazio. Muito potencial não aproveitado.

Region-locking XP was a terrible decision
Progression for this game is non-existent given how artifiacts (Levels) work

One of the worst developer stories, and what came back years later was absolutely not worth the wait.
