Cube Connect is a logic-puzzle, sliding-tile ball game. Across stages, the player slides blocks into different positions on a grid to create channels for anthropomorphic balls to roll smoothly toward finish lines. They also collect coins and earn points. The game times their play. To earn the highest score, they must rearrange the blocks quickly so that they can have the best possible time.
The game displays the blocks and grid at an angle. The player slides the blocks across the empty square grid spaces. They might slide a block with a curved section of channel up to attach it to a straight section, or a straight section left between two other sections. The ball starts to roll automatically within seconds, which means the player must rearrange the blocks quickly to prevent the ball from rolling off a block onto the grid.
Cube Connect also features special blocks. Blue blocks with arrows act like ramps that the ball can use as a jump point across an empty grid space. Blocks that feature columns of light allow the ball to teleport. When the player creates an uninterrupted channel, the ball rolls along it, collecting coins on the way, until it reaches the finish block and flag.
