The gameplay features a simple concept of navigating hazards and collecting points, but is hindered by cumbersome controls that detract from the experience. While it presents a challenging puzzle mechanic, it quickly becomes repetitive and lacks the dynamism needed to engage players, making it more suitable as a brief distraction rather than a fully-fledged game. Overall, the gameplay is seen as underwhelming and not recommended for casual gamers.
- “The red balls are the hazards, the small green dots are points you collect to raise your score, and blue dots slow down the gameplay.”
- “Dupio plays out more as a mini-game with a single puzzle mechanic – much like those found in HOGs (such as hacking a safe or matching corresponding symbols). It is an interesting concept about controlling two characters; however, it is too short and just not dynamic enough to recommend for even a casual gamer.”
- “The controls are a significant burden to the gameplay.”
- “Quite a challenge with an easy game idea; gameplay is very hard but gets boring quickly, making it more suitable for spare time.”
- “Dupio plays out more as a mini-game with a single puzzle mechanic – much like those found in hidden object games. It is an interesting concept about controlling two characters; however, it is too short and just not dynamic enough to recommend for even a casual gamer.”
