The gameplay features a unique herding mechanic that supports both co-op and versus modes, allowing players to switch seamlessly without needing to learn new controls, making it accessible for all ages. However, the lack of a campaign mode or progression elements diminishes its long-term appeal compared to similar games like Overcooked. Overall, while the gameplay is dynamic and fun, it may feel less engaging due to its limited structure.
- “It captures an integral dichotomy between co-op and versus which allows you to jump instantly between the two without learning any new mechanics or controls, which is perfect for all ages and perhaps environments that aren't conducive to detailed explanation.”
- “The herding mechanic is unique and fun, and lends itself to some Overcooked-style local co-op, but it just isn't as catchy because there's no campaign mode or any feeling of progression.”
- “This way several different gameplay variables could be brought in which would add a lot to differentiate the dynamic of the game.”
