The music in the game receives mixed reviews; while some players praise the catchy chiptune-lite soundtrack and engaging themes, others find it repetitive and lacking in variety. A few users noted that they preferred to play with their own music instead of the in-game tracks, indicating a desire for more diverse music options. Overall, the soundtrack is appreciated for its quality, but many feel it could benefit from additional tracks.
“The music and characters are also quite engaging and fun, adding to the experience.”
“Also, the chiptune-lite soundtrack is great; you listen to that level 3 theme and tell me it isn't the catchiest thing in existence.”
“And yes, the soundtrack and the art were all done by Antoine Latour, and it's all fantastic.”
“The music is awful; one upbeat track throughout the whole game. I turned it off.”
“Though I played the first 20 stages with the in-game music, I've found myself playing the game while listening to music on Spotify or a podcast.”

The game's story is generally well-received, praised for its humor, engaging characters, and polished dialogue, although some players find it overly chatty and less challenging compared to the puzzles. While the narrative adds charm to the experience, it often takes a backseat to the gameplay, which some players appreciate as it allows for a focus on the puzzles. Overall, the story enhances the game but may not satisfy those seeking a more substantial narrative challenge.
“It's a really, really fun puzzler with a fantastic art style, a polished UI, and a very funny story to bring everything together.”
“All I can say are praises: great visuals, a funny plot and dialogue, good soundtrack... so many levels and puzzle pieces for such a cheap game, and they've nailed the learning curve.”
“Well-written (sometimes a bit too chatty) story; I really liked the characters.”
“The story was boring, with too much meaningless and dull dialogue.”
“There is a story in this game, but it takes a clear backseat to the puzzles, which is not ideal.”
“Now that wouldn't be a problem if the main story levels were harder; most of them are casual, and I really wanted a challenge.”
