- Boink offers simple addictive fun with layers of complexity that keep players engaged even when away from the game.
- The game is entertaining and well thought out, especially with the variety of bouncer types and the satisfaction of achieving high point scores.
- It provides a soothing experience that is enjoyable to keep running in the background while doing other activities.
- Progression is slow and tedious, requiring the game to be left running constantly without meaningful offline progression.
- The game lacks content and variety, with limited bouncer types and no significant gameplay changes after multiple resets.
- The mechanics for placing bumpers are frustratingly finicky, lacking features like grid snap or zoom for better control.

“The game is frustratingly slow, needlessly tedious, insanely devoid of content, and lacking in any hooks to keep you interested past a round or two.”
“Unfortunately, placing said bumpers is the most frustratingly tedious and finicky thing I've ever had to do.”
