Cubely: 3D Color by Number & Voxel Art Builder

A world you can build, one cube at a time.

Fill a 3D model cube by cube until a grey model turns into a fox, a rocket or a lighthouse. Then open a blank grid and build something nobody has made before.

Free to play, with optional in-app purchases. Android.

Cubely key art: a voxel cat, apple, turtle, puppy, bee and bird around the words Color, Build, Create.

Inside the game

What you can do

Color in full 3D

Pick a color, tap every cube wearing that number, and rotate the model to reach the cubes hidden on the sides and back.

Build your own

Start from an empty grid, place cubes, undo mistakes and name your creation. Then color it like any of the included models.

A new prompt every day

A fresh build idea each day, for when you want to make something but have no idea what.

Nothing to lose

No timer, no score and no lives. Play for ten minutes or spread a huge model over several sessions, and every model saves exactly where you left it.

The long version

Color by number, except the pictures are 3D.

Every model is built out of tiny voxel cubes. A few hundred for the quick ones, more than 3,000 for the biggest. Each cube wears a number. You pick a color from the numbered palette, tap the cubes carrying that number, and rotate the model to reach the sides and back you cannot see yet. A grey voxel model slowly turns into a fox, a rocket, a dinosaur, a lighthouse, a cupcake or a guitar.

That is the whole game. No timer, no score, no lives. It scratches the same itch as a pixel art coloring book, except this one you can turn over in your hands.

The smallest models are a few hundred cubes and make a quick session. The biggest have more than 3,000, and they are not a single-sitting job. Every model is rated Easy, Medium or Hard from its real cube count rather than a guess, so filtering to Easy genuinely gets you something quick.

Progress saves separately for every model, so you can leave a half-finished whale sitting there for a week and pick it back up exactly where you were.

Build your own

Cubely is not only a coloring game. Start from an empty grid and build something cube by cube. Place cubes, undo mistakes, give it a name, then color it in just like one of the included designs. Your builds live in My Creations, with their own thumbnails and coloring progress.

There is a new build prompt every day if you want somewhere to start. Some days you can ignore it.

Power-ups and coins

You earn coins by completing models and other activities, and can spend them on optional power-ups when you want to color faster.

  • Splash colors a small cluster of cubes
  • Bucket colors every cube with the selected number across the entire model, which is the one you want when a big model has hundreds of the same number
  • Brush lets you swipe across several cubes instead of tapping them one at a time

Every model can still be finished without them, because a coloring app that makes you grind is missing the point.

Put some music on, pick a model, and watch it come to life cube by cube.
