The gameplay is noted for its hidden mechanics, such as the ability to create boxes, which adds depth but can initially feel obtuse. Players appreciate the revisit of familiar concepts with more accessible controls, suggesting the game has potential despite its complexity.
“Once you discover the hidden mechanics (e.g. you can create boxes of your own), it takes a completely different angle.”
“Nice to revisit this concept I had seen in other games, and see it done with arguably easier to control gameplay mechanics.”
“The gameplay is a bit obtuse.”
“This game has some potential and the mechanic is complex.”
