Welcome to OxRox, a modern reimagining of Safrosoft’s 2001 classic RoX. It preserves the darker atmosphere, challenging puzzles and Boulder Dash-style gameplay of the original while adding co-op, modern controls and a powerful level editor.
Collect objectives, avoid hazards, outsmart enemies and plan around falling boulders. Fully deterministic gameplay makes every interaction predictable, allowing even complex levels to be understood and mastered.
Discover a wide range of handcrafted levels, from quick introductory challenges to large, intricate puzzles.
Play alone, online with a friend through Steam, or locally using two configurable input profiles.
Co-op offers the full OxRox experience with two Threshers, including dedicated levels, progression and leaderboards for both teammates.
Build your own solo or co-op levels with the integrated editor and share them through Steam Workshop.
The improved editor features a flexible dockable workspace, streamlined controls and full co-op building and testing.
OxRox supports mouse, keyboard and controllers throughout the game and editor, with improved navigation, configurable inputs, useful shortcuts and clear prompt glyphs for your current control scheme.
OxRox is both a tribute to RoX and a continuation of its ideas, made for returning fans and newcomers alike.
