  Questions
  
  

  
  1. When Did you start playing the game and how long have you been playing?

  • I started playing on December 26th of 2018. I've played for just under five years.
    

  3. What peaks your interest Playing the Cubic Castles?

  • The sandbox of options that the game has. If you get bored of mining, you can build instead. If you are bored of trading, you can socialize. The large range of things you can do is what makes this game special.
    

  3. What makes you stay and play Cubic Castles?

  • The epic community and the tools to build adventures and minigames. Those are the main reasons why I play.
    

  4. What were your memorable memories playing the game?

  • Entering Pen's Yard Rentals for the first time and thinking "what in the world is going on here??" Hosting my first bomb game where I forgot a Pedestrians Only bumper and everyone climbed over the glass wall with their cars; good times. Hosting my first event and realizing how fun building is in this game.
    

  5. What is your most favorite update?

  • The Adventure pack update with Player NPCs. The NPCs were a game changer for me.
    

  6. What is your Favorite Item/Clothes/Pets?

  • Player NPC/Pencil Wand/Doog
    

  7. What are the things you’re looking forward to?

  • An NPC improvement update if that's a possibility, but if not, looking forward to see if Cubic Castles 2 becomes a reality, or if CC 1 gets overhauled/upgraded.

  Questions
  

  
  1. When Did you start playing the game and how long have you been playing?
  I have started playing since September 6, 2016. I have been playing for a little over 7 years now. Although I have taken several breaks from the game, I have always returned to see how the game has changed or to see new players.
  
  2. What peaks your interest Playing the Cubic Castles?
  The fact that this game is an MMO and a Sandbox. The MMO aspect allows players to communicate and talk to eachother. The game has various ways of allowing people to get together like a central overworld or Hollawarps. The sandbox aspect allows creativity. People can build many things. Shops, parkours, or scenic realms to show off their skill. Both of these combined allow for player based realms. like Pen's Yard Rentals or Building contests. The absence of different servers or private servers makes the interconnectedness even better.
  
  3. What makes you stay and play Cubic Castles?
  The community. The players of this game are what makes me play the game. I get to speak to players and make new friends. The community is why things like bomb games and pulse games are still around. They host events, they create new builds, and they keep the game alive.
  
  4. What were your memorable memories playing the game?
  I have a few that I would like to share when I was a beginenr.
  I remember winning one of my 1st bomb games because the entire map was made out of trick dice and I happened to jump at the correct time.
  I also remember making Ultimate Candies during the 2018 Halloween event and selling them because it was able to give me enough cubits to buy my dream item at the time: The Spiderbrella.
  When UV Shades were around 20k, I saw a shop that was selling them for 2k as an error. I was always poor so I was freaking out, trying to do Tapjoy offeres before they were sold (I never got them D:)
  My last memory was of me finishing my starter realm. I took a long time mining and decorating it. My dumb self allowed anyone to mine since I assumed that when I was mining, people could tp to me and help me mine. Of course, someone did tp, but mined things since I still had free build on.
  
  5. What is your most favorite update?
  Custom textures. I enjoyed seeing all the artwork made with them. I have also loved seeing builds use custom textures in creative or cool ways. They look great and they have helped my builds a lot too. Although they aren't perfect, this could lead Sirkewberth to add more custom items like shirts or decos.
  
  6. What is your Favorite Item/Clothes/Pets?
  Glass. It is the most useful item in the game for me. It's cheap, it can display items. It can make see-through walls, It can be used with vends and prize machines to make them even more useful. Its a good alternative to scaffolding in some aspects since you can see through it, allowing you to see if there are any building mistakes. It's usefull in building and decorations.
  My favorite wearable is the Beard. It's a funny item that looks goofy when worn with masks. It can be funny seeing the beird fail to work properly with certain masks, but it can also look goon on certain masks too. It can be worn over glasses or "face" wearables, which can allow for more creativity.
  My favorite pet are the spiders. They are cute and I like how they come in groups, like chick pets.
  
  7. What are the things you’re looking forward to?
  More updates/changes that come from the community. Sirkewberth can add items based off of other people's suggestions, but I think that if he would add quality of life changes or updates based off of suggestions by the community, It would make them feel like they have an actual impact on the game. It gives players hope that people could make an impact on the game or it makes them feel better knowing that Sirkewberth listens to what people have to say. If he could do something, like at the very least comment on more suggestions or threades in general, it would be better.

  Questions
  

  1. When Did you start playing the game and how long have you been playing?
  I started playing in May of 2015, I've not played everyday since of course I've had yearly breaks at different periods. Still not max level which is embarrassing.
  2. What peaks your interest Playing the Cubic Castles?
  I think the social appeal is the biggest, I've got a lot of friends from the game over the years some of which I still talk to occasionally. The creative freedom to do as I please and build what I want. I love packs but I'm not really into trading, I find it hard and stressful to be a good businessman I just want to give discounts or give stuff away.
  3. What makes you stay and play Cubic Castles?
  More recently I just felt like coming back, seeing how the game is and I've been enjoying it! Seen a few old friends and had a good time.
  4. What were your memorable memories playing the game?
  I've got quite a few, from winning a clan race in Blue Angles, to joining it, to all the emotional moments I've had with people, to the various games I've participated in (Hinter's PDC, Gdog v Hinter pack openings etc) and people I've met along the way. People building stuff or doing things for me still holds a special place in my heart.
  5.What is your most favorite update?
  Hard to decide really, I had a lot of fun with seasonal updates in particular but if we're just talking general ones either the car update or the stamps update (light snow, light rain).
  6. What is your Favorite Item/Clothes/Pets?
  The thing I most regret in my time playing is selling my black cat that I unpacked in 2015. Still my favourite thing in the game to this day and its such a shame I sold it! Silly younger me just wanting more packs. I've always loved the angel wings and halos as well - coming back and seeing the coloured ones was a big surprise, got a purple one immediately.
  7. What are the things you’re looking forward to?
  I always look forward to the seasonal events as I say, they're usually where the most fun in the game happens, people come back and its usually a really good time. The possibilities for 10th anniversary are also exciting such as maybe a Cubic 2, would love to see this game properly revived in some form like that.

  Questions:
  
  1. When Did you start playing the game and how long have you been playing?
  - I've started playing Cubic Castles around late 2015, when the game is about to peak. I've taken long breaks but eventually I visit the game.
  
  2. What peaks your interest Playing the Cubic Castles?
  - The fact that this is sort of a combination of Minecraft and Roblox. It has lots of cool features like fishing, trading, building, making textures and even NPCs. Additionally, the cool minigames like bomb games, bottomless games, PvPs, Pulse games and many other interests me.
  
  3. What makes you stay and play Cubic Castles?
  - It would probably the new events, items, packs or features. As an inactive player, coming back for something new is kinda nice. I would also stay for the community. Although it is small, it is still thriving and well.
  
  4. What were your memorable memories playing the game?
  - I remember the final moments of Good Vs Bad event, it was a fierce competition! Qbees were spamming their relic sets, and Team Good won. I also remember on a random day when I was fishing, I got an ultra rare which is a slime costume. I remember being so shocked and happy when I got it in my inventory. My last memorable memories is with my friends playing sky wars in CC then acceloing and trolling each other.
  
  5.What is your most favorite update?
  - Since I can't pick a favorite I'll just say my top 3 favorite updates which are the dancing update, the NPC update and the custom textures update. The dancing update makes me enjoy the dance floors, the NPC update opened a huge opportunity to adventure realms which I loved, and the custom textures because I get to use,see and appreciate the arts and the textures that qbees have made.
  
  6. What is your Favorite Item/Clothes/Pets?
  - My favorite item would be the YellowOrange Checkered Wallpaper, because I love the color yellow, especially if it's a pastel type. My favorite wearable would be the red balloon, I always wished when I was younger to obtain it. It makes me feel like a happy little kid whenever I wear it. My favorite pet is the snowman, especially on its level 49 form. I like its goofiness, because it is literally a snow "man" with muscles. It was my dream pet since when I was really young.
  
  7. What are the things you’re looking forward to?
  - The things I look forward to are the further growth of Cubic Castles and its community, also the 10th anniversary of the game. I'm excited what they have to show! I look forward as well to the future events of CC, I hope it will be fun and enjoyable.
