Check out 'Binaries' if you fancy an eye bending challenge on Linux

By Liam Squires-Hand,
I decided to check out 'What The Box?' a new Early Access shooter because the idea of it sounds hilarious. Everyone is a box, in rooms full of boxes, but you have to figure out what box is another player and kill them.
