The gameplay is centered around a unique portal mechanic that allows players to manipulate blocks in innovative ways, such as phasing through obstacles and storing blocks for later use. While the core mechanic is engaging and creatively designed, some players feel that the lack of additional mechanics and depth may limit long-term enjoyment. Overall, the game offers a satisfying and challenging puzzle experience, particularly for fans of the sokoban genre, despite its brevity.
“The core mechanic is your character’s ability to cast magic ‘portals’ (that’s what they’re called in-game, but they don’t behave like typical portals you see in games) that allow you to walk on water, phase through blocks, or even store blocks and then manifest them later.”
“You get a special portal mechanic that seems like it would trivialize most puzzles, but the game has crafted a challenging and engaging experience that kept me interested throughout my entire playthrough.”
“The mechanic combines 'phasing' and 'storing' of blocks, which creates a surprising number of possible moves in very compact puzzle layouts.”
“I found this portal mechanic quite original and fun, but sadly there are no additional mechanics beyond that, besides the usual block-pushing.”
“No new elements are introduced after the tutorial section, though you will discover one or two subtleties about the portal mechanic that aren’t explicitly mentioned in the tutorial after a few non-tutorial puzzles.”
“While its core mechanic is undeniably unique, there isn’t really that much depth to it for it to blow your mind, especially when there aren’t any further mechanics introduced.”
