Reviews
- The game features a beautiful design, cute characters, and a relaxing atmosphere, making it enjoyable for players of all ages.
- It offers a decent challenge, especially in later levels, and allows for 3-star completion without the use of power-ups, which adds to the satisfaction of solving puzzles.
- The developers are responsive and actively work on updates, fixing issues and adding new features, which enhances the overall experience.
- The power-ups can feel overpowered and diminish the challenge of solving puzzles, leading to a lack of incentive to complete levels without them.
- Some levels do not have a clear minimum move requirement for 3-star completion, which can lead to frustration when trying to achieve perfect scores.
- The game can become repetitive, with limited mechanics introduced across stages, and there are missed opportunities for more engaging design elements.

The gameplay is characterized by a solid visual style and engaging puzzle mechanics, though it suffers from repetitiveness due to limited variety in introduced mechanics. While the current 95 levels offer a decent experience, upcoming updates promise new elements that could enhance the overall design. Overall, the execution of gameplay and user interface is well-received, drawing comparisons to similar titles.
“Game mechanics include elevators, guiding arrows, and teleports, the latter of which is maybe the only thing I have a problem with, but not a huge one.”
“The game came out with 95 levels, but more are on the way with new mechanics, like lasers and push blocks.”
“Very well executed in gameplay and UI.”
“The gameplay is repetitive; the few mechanics introduced across stages do little to add variety.”
“While there is a lot to like here, such as the outstanding visual style, cute characters, and the primary puzzle mechanics, I'm not sure if I should actually recommend this game.”
“More stages are in development, so perhaps new mechanics will breathe life into its average design.”

The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players finding it nice and pleasant, while others describe it as annoying and tedious, leading them to turn it off quickly. Overall, the audio experience is considered less appealing, with many players suggesting that it may only be enjoyable for short periods.
“Pleasant music and cute animals :)”
“Nice music.”
“Only worth it for free; fun but extremely tedious time-waster puzzle. Fun for short periods of time, but the music and sounds are pretty annoying. Get it for free if you can or at a really low price.”
“No hard feelings though, not many puzzlers have a soundtrack I can listen to for long, let alone all the way to the end.”

The graphics feature a charming diorama-like presentation with detailed forests and animated animals that enhance the overall experience, despite graphics not being the primary focus in puzzlers. Players appreciate the visual appeal, which complements the game's challenging nature.
“The diorama-like presentation of forests and cute animals immediately won me over, and I found small details like moving animals in the background hours into the game.”
“The graphics look really nice, and the game itself is challenging enough.”
“The graphics feel outdated and lack the polish expected from modern games.”
“Character models are poorly designed and lack detail, making them feel lifeless.”
“The environments are bland and repetitive, which detracts from the overall experience.”

Reviews indicate that the grinding aspect of the game is seen as tedious and time-consuming, making it more enjoyable in short bursts rather than as a prolonged experience. Players suggest it is only worth engaging with if obtained for free or at a very low price, as the repetitive nature can become frustrating, especially with the accompanying music and sounds.
