The music in the game consists of a single repetitive track, which many players found grating over time. Users expressed disappointment at the lack of variety, suggesting that the inclusion of additional tracks would have significantly improved the experience.
“There's only one music track that gets very repetitive, and honestly, it would not have taken much for the developers to include another track or two.”
“I ended up lowering the music volume really low so it wouldn't grate as much.”

The gameplay is relatively simple and reminiscent of mobile games, offering a casual experience that can be enjoyed for a few hours. At a price of $3.99, it provides decent value for those seeking light entertainment.
“For a PC game, there's not a lot to it, and it's more what you would expect from a mobile game. However, for the price of $3.99, it's not bad for a few hours of casual gameplay.”
