Trove, Pokemon Quest, Total Miner, and Planet Explorers are famous voxel-based video games where the player commands his character from either a first-person or a third-person perspective while exploring the sandbox open world environment to complete a variety of tasks. Some games come with free roaming, letting the player manipulate the environment freely and experience the voxel elements.

Crossy Road is another best example of Voxel, where the player commands a cute character, explore the environment from a top-down perspective with an objective to cross the road without colliding any vehicle or object.
