The gameplay is criticized for being dull and overly simplistic, featuring 60 easy levels with inconsistent physics that detract from the experience. Players report issues with bomb placement and structures collapsing without interaction, leading to a lack of engagement. Additionally, the repetitive music further diminishes the overall enjoyment of the game.

The story emphasizes resilience and the unpredictability of life, highlighting that perseverance can lead to unexpected outcomes. While it draws clear inspiration from the Angry Birds franchise, the narrative focuses on personal growth and overcoming challenges rather than the original game's mechanics.
“Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
“While there is no catapult flinging birds at pigs, the game is clearly inspired by Angry Birds, and the 'story' presented is also very clearly inspired by Angry Birds.”
