Users report significant stability issues with the game, including persistent glitches that hinder gameplay, such as getting stuck in continuous scrolling. These problems have led some players to consider refunding the game, with hopes of revisiting it once stability improves.
“Refunding this game for now. I may come back to it later, but some of the glitches it currently has make it nearly impossible to play. For example, I keep getting stuck in a continuous scroll through the screens. The programming of the robot seems a little confusing, but that may be due to the continuous scrolling through the steps and the inability to use the built-in help because of it.”
“The game crashes frequently, making it frustrating to progress. I often lose my progress due to these stability issues, which really detracts from the overall experience.”
“I encountered multiple bugs that caused the game to freeze. It's disappointing because the concept is great, but the stability issues ruin the enjoyment.”
