The gameplay is a unique blend of adventure storytelling and tactical puzzle-solving, utilizing mechanics reminiscent of a Rubik's cube. Players must navigate obstacles and strategically eliminate knights to activate goals, though the tutorial is criticized for its lack of clarity in explaining the mechanics. Overall, the game offers a challenging and engaging experience for puzzle enthusiasts.
- “Using the Rubik's cube mechanic, you'll have to rotate not only the goal towards your figure to minimize the moves you make with the figure; there'll also be obstacles such as walls and knights that guard a tile they are facing. You must not only avoid that tile, but also remove the knights by moving to the tile they stand on from any other tile they don't guard, or otherwise the goal won't activate if there are still knights.”
- “Other puzzlers with a cubes-and-tiles environment but different puzzle mechanics are Death Squared and Felix the Reaper.”
- “For the bad points, I would say the tutorial is not really a tutorial as it doesn't explain the mechanics; it's more like a classic mode.”
