What texture you've applied (if any) doesn't matter for this particular problem.
The solution should be fairly straightforward though: it should just be a matter of adding an appropriate collider to the 'box' game object, adding a script that implements the OnMouseDown() function, and calling Destroy() with the game object as the argument in the body of the function. (I haven't actually tested this, but it seems like it should do what you're wanting.)
Do you got an example script? also is it possible to play an animation such as the box' been destroyed not just it disappearing lol .. thank you
For a 'destroy/remove' effect, one solution would be to instantiate a new object representing the removal effect when you remove the existing object. As for an example script, it's very simple, so you don't really need one. First, create a script that includes an empty On$$anonymous$$ouseDown() function; then, add a single line of code to the body of that function to destroy the game object (it should look something like this: Destroy(gameObject);). If you try that and it doesn't work, I'd recommend posting your code to your original post here or in a new post in the forums so that we can take a look.
