Replayability is generally limited, as levels remain the same after completion, reducing the incentive to return.

- “The game requires you to have pinpoint accuracy, so finding the differences the first time is bothersome. However, once you know where the differences are, they remain the same on that level after completion, leading to almost no replayability unless you want to see how quickly you can complete a level.”
