  • gameplay19 mentions

    The gameplay of this puzzle adventure game is marred by inconsistent mechanics and frustrating physics, leading to frequent issues such as getting stuck or falling through the world. While the time travel mechanic and puzzle design show potential, many players find the gameplay slow, overly simplistic, and at times, broken, detracting from the overall experience. Despite some fun elements, the execution leaves much to be desired, making it feel more like a rough prototype than a polished title.

    • “Good puzzles, and the time travel mechanic sets the gold standard for future puzzle games.”
    • “The gameplay is all about combining parts, which are mostly found at the beginning of each level, to create machines that will get you around obstacles such as chasms, hills, and deadly spikes.”
    • “Perfect for children, this short and cute puzzle platformer offers interesting game mechanics and light-hearted, innocent humor.”
    • “While this puzzle adventure game is cute, it suffers from a lot of rough mechanics.”
    • “The rewind mechanic is in theory robust, but it doesn't checkpoint consistently - several times I loaded back only to be in the middle of a puzzle, out of reach of a physics object, or even worse, in the middle of a physics plane, resulting in me falling through the world entirely.”
    • “Frankly, the time travel back mechanic feels like a cop-out for poor game design; the developers knew you'd never finish the game if it didn't basically have built-in save states.”

    The humor in the game is a mixed bag, with some players appreciating its quirky and sarcastic banter, particularly between the characters Sack and the Doc, while others find it lacking and even pathetic.

    • “I enjoyed this for the humor, and it was an easy, quick game to play at a time when my life was too stressful and busy to play something with more depth.”
    • “From the quest for toasted sandwiches to Sack's hilariously sarcastic comments, this game is something different and fun, and I love its quirkiness.”
    • “With hilarious little quips from your buddy, Sack, who also doubles as your inventory, you get both a great game and insults at the same time.”
    • “The humor fell flat and felt forced, making the experience more frustrating than enjoyable.”
    • “I expected clever jokes, but instead, I was met with tired clichés and unoriginal gags.”
    • “The attempts at humor were so cringeworthy that I found myself rolling my eyes instead of laughing.”
