Development Ĭube World began development in June 2011, with designer Wolfram von Funck describing it as a 3D voxel-based game with a focus on exploration and role-playing game elements, citing games such as The Legend of Zelda, Secret of Mana, and World of Warcraft as inspiration. Crafting is also a part of the game it allows players to create food, potions, weapons, and armor, as well as cosmetics. Players can also tame animals, such as sheep or turtles, which fight alongside them, or, in some cases, can be ridden to traverse the world more quickly. The world is populated with monsters and creatures that can be killed for better armor and weapons, which results in stronger stats and abilities and allows players to choose specializations which best suit their playstyle, such as warriors being able to choose between focusing on damage or defensive abilities, or mages focusing on damage or healing abilities. The player then chooses one of four classes: warrior, rogue, ranger, or mage, each of which have access to unique armour, weapons, and abilities. The game features character creation, which involves the player first choosing a race and sex, then customising the look of the character. Players can use items such as hang gliders and boats to traverse the world more quickly.


It contains dungeons, including caverns and overworld castles, as well as biomes including grasslands, snowlands, deserts, and oceans. In Cube World, the player explores a large voxel-based world. An in-game screenshot showing a mage character on the overworld
