Toxic Games has revealed that its unique first-person puzzle title QUBE is coming to the Wii U eShop.
QUBE — which stands for Quick Understanding of Block Extrusion, in case you were wondering — is currently available on PC and Mac. The objective of the game is to move around levels by manipulating coloured blocks.
Toxic posted an image of the game running on a Wii U GamePad on Twitter, and then published the following tweet:

You can check out the game in action in trailer below. It certainly looks interesting — will it be a day one purchase for you?

That games looks awesome. I loved the Portal games and this reminds me of those, so it should be good.
Wow,,this looks amazing!!!
portal was very good game but this is the best game i have seen cant wait to come to the wii u
The trailer looks like a lot of fun! I'm always a fan of puzzle games
need more input!
Frankly, even after watching the trailer, I don't get what the object of this game is.
@cornishlee Me neither, but it looks interesting...
Very unique.
I briefly played the demo on steam and while it was interesting it didn't have the same charm and appeal of Portal. But I am definitely willing to give it another shot on Wii U. I'm very glad to finally see games beginning to come to the eShop.
I wasn't much of a fan of Portal, I liked the concept and I'm a huge fan of puzzle games, but I found Portal really easy. Depending on how much this will be, I may or may not get it.
I've never played Portal on either the comp or home consoles, but was deeply impressed at Q.U.B.E. Since it's already released on Steam, I'm extremely pumped to see this game to be released at the eShop for Wii U. The off-TV gameplay using the GamePad is gonna be off the chain and the graphics will run as smooth as the PC counterpart. All we need now is a release date for Q.U.B.E. U.
Would be cool if you could use two Wii Remotes as each hand... never understood why more games didn't take advantage of asking player to use two remotes at the same time, unless it was a tech problem or not wanting to limit their potential audience.
GAIS, U SPILLED COLOR WRONG #HASHTAGSWAGGITYSWAGSWAHYOLO
I wouldn't have bought this on PC, but on the Wii U... eh, why not?
I think i'll buy this game if it's under £10
My friend thought this was portal3
Looks great judging from the trailer.
looks interesting. but also looks like a massive portal ripoff
@Chabbox
It's priced $9.99 on Steam. I would assume a similar price on eShop.
Going to try the demo on Steam to see if its any good. Would still be nice to see it come out on eShop whether or not it's very good. eShop needs more games.
There was a game on PS1 called Intelligent Qube or IQ. Very similar names.
...End of comment.
Oh my god how can I not get this. It reminds me a lot of Portal but it looks way more fun. Day one purchase, no doubt in my mind about that.
Interesting. The aesthetics remind me a lot of Portal. I wonder if we will be seeing a companion qube in this game?
@DerpSandwich
I loved intelligent cube.
I am actually impressed with what I saw in the trailer. It looks like Portal but it has its own game play elements that make it stand out. Definitely an interesting game.
Wow! Looks awesome, can't wait to play it on Wii U
That looks really good. This is a great addition to the WiiU. I must admit, as far as WiiU eShop games are concerned. I tend to buy puzzlers. So far all I have bought is Little Inferno and Toki Tori2 and I'm pretty sure I would buy Qube too!
@HeatBombastic Dude, the UK and Canadian spelling is Colour, not Color.
I own this on Steam, It's really quite good. For anyone who was turned off by the demo, it gets a lot more interesting in the later levels, the demo doesn't do them justice. I might pick this up if there's some cool new features or levels. otherwise O'' stick to it on Steam.
@LittleIrves Well they do have the nunchuck? Yea it has fewer buttons, but it's still just as good as a second Wiimote.
Huh...might have to look into this...is there any story to it like Portal?
I always thought a version of portal should have come to Wii because of the Wiimote and Nun-chuck so I am glad this is coming to the Wii U. Although ill admit, when I first saw this i didnt know if it was a real game or an experiment they were seeing how it would turn out!
I'm down with anything that looks like Portal. Can't wait to see a review on this.
You have my "Attention"
Portal, anyone? Looks pretty interesting though!
