Patrick's Parabox is an indie Puzzle Game made by Patrick Traynor, released on Steam and itch.io in March of 2022 for PC, Mac, and Linux. The goal is to push boxes around so that every square outline is covered, and then get to the goal, which resembles one of those same outlines, but with eyes like the Player Character's. The main gimmick is that many boxes have space in them that other boxes can be pushed into, or that you can enter yourself. Soon enough, you encounter boxes that contain themselves, and things only get more complex from there. | |

Warp Whistle | |
| Patrick's Parabox (Video Game) / int_159850a5 | comment |
Warp Whistle: There is a tile in the upper-left corner of every hub that lets you travel between any you have already unlocked without walking all the way back. | |

No Plot? No Problem! | |
| Patrick's Parabox (Video Game) / int_1fffccf7 | comment |
No Plot? No Problem!: Why are you pushing boxes around, and traversing levels within levels? Who knows, but it's fun. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
| Patrick's Parabox (Video Game) / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: It is very possible to cause an "Infinite Exit" paradox by pushing a box into its own exit long before this becomes necessary to solve many late-game puzzles. | |

A Winner Is You | |
| Patrick's Parabox (Video Game) / int_27b418da | comment |
A Winner Is You: Stepping on the goal in the Multi Infinite world prompts the camera to zoom all the way out, showing all of the levels you have completed in the process, with the Intro hub becoming the "O" in the game's title, followed by credits. | |

Recursive Reality | |
| Patrick's Parabox (Video Game) / int_352151a3 | comment |
Recursive Reality: Boxes can contain copies of themselves, allowing you to exit it from one edge and re-enter from the opposite end. The hub itself turns out to loop in on itself in a similar way as revealed in the ending. | |

| Patrick's Parabox (Video Game) / int_411a35bd | comment |
Body Surf: Late in the game, you start finding blocks that have empty versions of the player character's eyes. Pressing up against these without entering them causes you to switch control to that box. | |

Interface Screw | |
| Patrick's Parabox (Video Game) / int_66f763c0 | comment |
Interface Screw: Several optional levels are rendered in ASCII art instead of usual graphics. A pair of extra levels zoom in or out infinitely, forcing the player to constantly adjust which box they are focusing on. One level has a fixed viewpoint and zoom level focusing on one of the nested boxes instead of the player, so the player becomes tiny in boxes contained within it, and goes offscreen and has to feel out the surroundings outside it. | |

Gimmick Level | |
| Patrick's Parabox (Video Game) / int_8dd3f1da | comment |
Gimmick Level: Generally, a world will have at least one stage that contains an Interface Screw. In the post-game, a few "Appendix" worlds whose gimmicks change the game mechanics outright are also unlocked. Some extra levels have strange gimmicks not found anywhere else in the game, such as a box not being the same number of tiles wide as it is tall. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Patrick's Parabox (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: You only need to complete a certain number of levels in most worlds to unlock the next one. In the majority of cases, this is less than the number of levels in the world overall, so if a puzzle on the "main" path is giving you trouble, you can substitute one of the optional stages. It is also possible to unlock all of the levels from the Settings menu. | |
