The gameplay is characterized by a blend of simple yet engaging mechanics that challenge players' problem-solving skills, particularly as they progress through increasingly complex puzzles. Players appreciate the variety introduced in each of the seven cities, which adds depth and keeps the experience fresh, while the intuitive design allows for discovery without explicit instructions. Overall, the combination of fun mechanics, tight level design, and a beautiful art style contributes to a rewarding puzzle-solving experience.
“The constraints in design were definitely a good choice to create enough variety for the extremely simple mechanics.”
“Multiple mechanics like enemies escaping from you when you get too close, enemies following you, teleport tiles, bosses that move until they hit something...”
“The puzzles are really well made, the mechanics are fun, and the art style is beautiful.”
“Some puzzles are easy and meant to teach you the mechanics, while others are intuitive enough to solve on your first try. However, from the third world onwards, you start encountering puzzles that become complicated even when brute-forcing them.”
“The gameplay is simple: you control a little pink-haired witch and can move any distance in eight directions every turn. However, the complexity of the mechanics increases significantly as you progress.”
“What I want from a puzzle game is a non-derivative set of simple mechanics that fit well together, tight and varied level design, and a bit of challenge. Unfortunately, this game falls short in delivering that.”
