Gameplay is characterized by its reliance on counting and measuring, which may pose challenges for players with dyscalculia. While it incorporates engaging roguelike elements reminiscent of Minesweeper, the distance mechanics can be difficult to assess visually. The tutorial provides a decent introduction but lacks clarity on some fundamental mechanics, often requiring players to experiment through failure.
“Minesweeper with really good tacked-on roguelike gameplay.”
“The tutorial, while decent, doesn't explain some basics and leaves it to you to figure out, which is fine with me, except to figure out some of these mechanics requires you to lose the game (or at least lose health).”
