We stop in with iello and talk about one game which is a fantastic look back at retro video gaming. 8BitBox is a fantastic set of four different games which allows you to see if you’re any better with your cardboard and chits than you were with a joystick.
Win A Copy Of 8BitBox
It’s time to stop in with Robin and learn more about the game so you get to see what it’s like ahead of winning yourself a copy!
This game is touching something deep inside my 6 to 8 year old soul.
Pac-Man, F-Zero and Track & Field this is a great thing to take on the road, camping etc. I like it and who does not love retro.
brings back memories
Ah, the board game of my misspent youth. Great stuff!
Game looks amazing and cool selection of retro games
A nice idea. I can see this being well received round the gaming table.
8 bit box looks really cool.
this game look awesome!!! great design
Damit, 8BitBox is going to make me fire up pac-man just to play it again!
it is on my list – i am child of the 80s
Nice idea… Like the idea of making retro console into board games
This looks amazing, I need this in my life. Such a good idea.
such a cool idea. looks like fun! 🙂
This I must have! Hope it comes to my gameshop soon!
i just wonder if this is more gimmick than game. still it looks fun though
Love the retro pixel aesthetic.
This looks fun 🙂
That’s really cool. Each game needs to be simple, and they are, and they really evoke the feeling of retro games. Love it! The controller idea is genius.
I grew up with games like these.
Really good looking product! Love the 8 bit theme.
bacl to the good old days
Very retro, love the look of this
hah creative name!
I like that they combine four mini games into one package, and the retro game concept. However, I don’t know if a video gamer would simply prefer to play a video game rather than a board game pretending to be one.
this looks like a funny game
That’s definitely scratching my Retro itch.
I love the design and I am curious, but I can’t help but think that all it has is style and will lack gameplay fun and replay value.
Very cool idea
I didn’t recognise any of those games either…
I need to get my (very) old NES out of the cupboard!
Cute game. Visually stunning
Reminds me of my childhood and the countless hours spent playing games on Commodore 64. Ah fun times.
Cool idea to pack in a bunch of mini games
Looks good.
Love the retro vibe
I am always hooked when I see games of all kinds givin the 8-bit look, it just makes it feel more special and nostalgic. I would love this to add to my collection.
iello have a really nice style to their games
Unfortunatelly, I have heard only bad from people testing it: nice components – but no game(s).
wowow this looks really cool
This I really need to play! Brings back my childhood!
8 and 16 bit era has some of the best games ever made in it
What a cool game
Video game inspired visuals like these are a welcomed addition to the table top.
