Loopop Cube: Loop Salad Portable・るぷぷキューブ ルプさらだ ぽ~たぶる

[gaygamer]

I’ve got Dimple Entertainment’s Loopop Cube: Lup Salad (the Japanese PlayStation version of which can be seen in the photo above) on the brain right now after writing and publishing a blog post about “five overlooked Nintendo DS games you need to play as soon as possible.”

If this is the first you’re hearing of it, Loopop Cube (or Rupupu Cube, as some translate its title) is a cute puzzle game that combines elements of Puzznic (or Bejeweled) and Sokoban (aka Boxxle). There’s a bit more to its gameplay than that, of course, but that’s the gist.

Want to learn more about this adorable (and addictive) game, which was released for the PS1, DS and PSP? Check out this old blog post of mine: http://www.thegaygamer.com/2012/12/12-import-games-i-bought-in-2012-but_28.html

That same blog post offers up a few more snapshots of the PlayStation version of Loopop Cube: Lup Salad, by the way. Oh, and if you’d like to see that iteration’s instruction manual, read my “Manual Stimulation” write-up about it.

My #CIBSunday offering this week is Datam Polystar’s Loopop Cube: Lup ★ Salad for the original PlayStation. 

If you’d like to learn more about this adorable action-puzzler, which later was ported to the DS and PSP (only in Japan, of course), go to http://www.thegaygamer.com/2012/12/12-import-games-i-bought-in-2012-but_28.html 

Also, check out its instruction manual, which somehow is even more precious than the packaging you see here, at: http://www.thegaygamer.com/2013/01/manual-stimulation-loopop-cube-lup.html
