The gameplay is generally enjoyable and offers a solid feel, particularly when played with friends, but it suffers from issues like loss of momentum and poor character control due to crowded environments and poorly placed map boosters. While it features a simple pick-up-and-play style with limited core mechanics, the inclusion of pickups adds some depth, and the time mechanic enhances the experience, making it feel like a speedrun. Overall, the game is fun but could benefit from more refined gameplay elements.
- “The gameplay overall functions and is fun, but it's very easy to lose momentum, which is not helped by multiple unpredictable dead-ends.”
- “The actual gameplay is relatively fun for some time, especially if you can get some friends to play with you.”
- “I like platformers myself, so this game is fun because of the time mechanic; it's like you're already playing a speedrun for every round.”
- “About the gameplay... most of the time you don't have the required control over your character, since everybody is jumping on top of each other or map boosters are poorly placed.”
- “So with a solid feel under its belt but just a small group of core game mechanics, the pickups are where some gameplay depth is served up... though it's still a pretty simple, pick-up-and-play type of game overall.”
