Originally created to run on Nintendo Wii U console, Cube Life: Island Survival became one of the first Minecraft-style sandbox survival experiences available on Nintendo’s system.

CRAFT:
Gathering resources is a key element to survival. It allows you to craft weapons like swords, axes, and long bows for hunting and fighting.
FIGHT:
Some islands are occupied by local inhabitants and you can choose to befriend them, or if you prefer, be a bad guy and steal their items, animals,
