Peter Molyneux’s new experimental game, Curiosity: What’s inside The Cube, has experienced a few delays through the prolonged Apple certification process but will finally be released in early November. Molyneux told Polygon in an interview that Curiosity will be released November 7th on iOS and Android.
Curiosity: What’s inside The Cube is Peter Molyneux’s new game where players work together, tapping away at a massive cube. Everyone is slowly tapping away layers of the same cube hoping to be the one person that discovers the secret hidden inside.
What’s actually inside the cube is still a secret to this day only known to Molyneux and his team at 22 Cans.
In fact the secret and overall experimental concept among other things were partly the reason the game took so long to get through Apple’s App Store certification process. “The approval process was looong,” Molyneux explained to our friends at Polygon. “We first submitted on the 1st of October, because Curiosity is so unique in both execution and concept, Apple obviously paid close attention to it. This meant it kept popping in and out of Cert. Apple have been wonderfully professional and their systems worked well.”
Curiosity will be a free-to-play title but will contain several different in-app purchases for upgrades and new tools. The new items are tools that enhance the speed and combo rate of the tapping among other things. Molyneux said the nature of the in-app purchases was another thing that Apple needed tweaked before the game could hit the App Store.
Lastly was the secret, 22 Cans did not want the folks at Apple to know the secret at the core of the cube which also lead to delays. “We also had to guard the secret of what was in the centre of the cube, with lots of back and forth, in the end we kept it secret,” Molyneux said to Polygon. “It was a fascinating experience. I have to say Apple were brilliant though.”
