Sound Qube
Sega Saturn · 1998
About this game
Sound Qube is a puzzle game in which the player uses sound cues to identify and eliminate cubes from a stack.
Each stage presents the player with a three-dimensional grid of cubes, which is viewed from a corner that shows two sides, and which can be freely rotated to see all sides.

The player controls a cursor which can pulse a sonar into a row of blocks; blue sonars can be pulsed into the left face of the stack, while red sonars can be pulsed into the right.
Different types of cubes respond to different types of pulses; once identified, the player can mark the color of a cube.
Red, Blue, and White cubes can be eliminated by locking multiple of the same color and firing a sonar pulse, while Purple "Core" cubes can also be locked and eliminated solo, though attempting to eliminate a cube as the wrong color will penalize the player with a loss of energy.
The goal of each stage is to find and eliminate all of the Core cubes, which will respond to both red and blue sonar pulses, before the time energy runs out.
About Sega Saturn
The Sega Saturn (1994/1995) struggled commercially against the PlayStation despite strong 2D capabilities and a library beloved by shoot-'em-up and RPG fans. Its relatively low sales translated directly into low print runs for many games, making the Saturn one of the more expensive retro platforms to collect completely — several titles now sell for hundreds of euros in good condition.
Gamevaro tracks Sound Qube for Sega Saturn with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Sound Qube to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This SAT release dates back to 1998.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
