The game's optimization has been widely criticized, with users noting that it feels like a poorly executed port of the free mobile version, featuring inadequate controller and keyboard controls that fail to function properly. This has led to disappointment among players who expected a more refined experience on Steam.
“When I first saw this game available on Steam, I remember being excited thinking it would be an even better experience. To my shock and disbelief after purchasing, I discovered that this game is basically a complete port of the *free* mobile version with a light menu re-skin and terribly optimized controller/keyboard controls that don't function properly.”
