Overall, the visuals contribute positively to the game's atmosphere, complementing its challenging yet enjoyable gameplay.
“Fun little puzzle game with really nice details and graphics.”
“In contrast to the car puzzler, the graphics/art is improved and even though there is only a single song in the game, its selection, together with thunder sound effects, emphasizes the struggle of heroes navigating through the unknown territory - adding a cool atmosphere to the game.”
“The levels are challenging but not very tough and the art style is nice and polished.”

The gameplay features a gradual learning curve, with a tutorial that introduces mechanics across 70 levels, making it easy to learn but challenging to master. However, the mirror mechanic can create confusion, as it doesn't clearly indicate when tiles are blocked, particularly in larger levels, leading to frustration. Overall, the increasing complexity of puzzles keeps players engaged as they progress.
“The gameplay is easy to learn but hard to master, since the difficulty of the levels gradually goes up!”
“The 'campaign' offers 70 levels, which are not extremely difficult, but just like in the case of the developer's first game 'Car Puzzler', there are more and more game mechanics unlocked, and puzzles thus become more and more challenging as one progresses.”
“Here is the tutorial which you’ll play through each level learning how the game and its mechanics work.”
“The mirror mechanic introduced in later levels stops one tile from moving if its partner cannot move; however, the UI indicator for the blocked tile doesn't show for each mirror pair, so tiles just seemingly can't move in certain directions. This is a real pain in the large levels.”
“The gameplay is easy to learn but hard to master, as the difficulty of the levels gradually increases!”
“The 'campaign' offers 70 levels, which are not extremely difficult, but similar to the developer's first game 'Car Puzzler', more game mechanics are unlocked, making puzzles increasingly challenging as one progresses.”
