ZooCube (GameCube, PlayStation 2)

ZooCube is an unusual puzzle game where the player uses the titular cube to save the world's wildlife from freaky mutations inflicted by Dr. Buc Ooze.

Its biggest claim to fame is that it was the first puzzle game released on the GameCube.

To do:

  • Figure out how to open .igb files.
    • Check what beammeup.igb does.
  • Look through all the .txt files in the GameData directory.
  • Check for unused music or sounds.
