'Stick People Sticking Together', that's the slogan the manufacturer of Cube World uses. We know, it's a kind of weird slogan but once you read the story below you'll understand why they choose this slogan.Everyone knows the good old Tamagotchi games that popped up, well this toy is a far more advanced version of this popular virtual game.
Imagine you have a set of cubes, in each cube there's a digital person living and working. The person is isolated as long as it is not connected with other cubes.
That's how this toy works, the cubes have magnetic contacts. Once connected with another cube, the digital persons will try to communicate with eachother.
Mindy will start wrangling Casey's dog, Stephen will throw a ball to Jo, ... That's where the game gets interesting. You can observe how these 'imaginary' digital creatures communicate with eachother.
You can control a digital person by using the buttons. But the coolest thing is when you simply connect a couple of cubes to one another and see them do funny stuff.
Pretty cheap, $30 available over at ThinkGeek
