The Magnus Box Arcade

Flappy Box

Your backups run quietly in the background. This is what you do while they finish. Fly the box through the server racks, rack up points, and take a run at the founder's score. Mike got 37 and he will not let anyone forget it.

Beat the founder
Tap, click, or hit space to fly the box through the racks. Score 38 and you outrank Mike. Score 50 and you're a legend.
Score: 0 Rank: Password Resetter Mike: 37 Best: 0

Controls: tap, click, spacebar, or the up arrow. That's it. The physics are unforgiving on purpose.

The game is free. So is the trial.

If you can thread a box through a datacenter, imagine what you can do with backups that actually finish.
