Hi, sorry for the late answer.

There are multiple ways to achieve this, here are two:
1) You can iterate over all known boxes and check whether one is in the direction behind the current box. You can get the direction by using player.transform.forward, or by substracting the player and current box position.
2) You can RayCast from the box in the direction the player is facing, and check how far away the returned colliding object is. Note, that you'll have to add Collider to your boxes in order for this to work.
