    The gameplay is characterized by simple and intuitive controls, gradually introducing a variety of mechanics that keep the experience fresh and engaging.

The game effectively combines basic math with logic, creating a compelling "just one more puzzle" experience that appeals to both casual and hardcore puzzle enthusiasts.

    • “Controls are simple and intuitive, and while not all puzzles are immediately available, access to the next level of puzzles is gated behind a simple challenge puzzle mechanic, so no single puzzle variety outstays its welcome.”
    • “The maths, however, is so basic and instantaneous in the mind of any average person that it makes for fun and addictive puzzle-solving gameplay!”
    • “It's hard to describe the gameplay here.”
    • “However, from there on out it has way more mechanics.”
    • “The game introduces the mechanics slowly, so you're not overwhelmed.”
  • music
    30 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

  • replayability
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game boasts high replayability due to its low-investment nature and a plethora of user-friendly features, such as mouseover completion and hints, which enhance the overall experience.

  • grinding
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious, particularly at higher levels where complex arithmetic and manual color filling can feel more like a chore than a puzzle. The reliance on calculators and the repetitive nature of deduction and guesswork contribute to a sense of frustration, making the experience feel laborious rather than engaging.

    • “It becomes a bit tedious filling in the blanks, a certain amount of which is deduction based on arithmetic, some is sheer guesswork based on probability, and the rest is just a process of elimination.”
    • “My only annoyances are on the higher levels I found myself playing with a calculator on hand as sometimes a group of numbers will be like 'these numbers all multiply together to equal 3094' or whatever which gets a little tedious at times, and the levels where you have to manually fill in the colors yourself usually (not always) is just an extra step rather than a real puzzle element (all of the groups with < and > are very obviously the same group so why am I coloring them manually).”
    • “It's like grinding up numbers and shooting them up your vein.”
  • graphics
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics received mixed reviews, with some praising them as excellent (A+), while others found them to be subpar and unremarkable. Despite the varying opinions on the visual quality, many players emphasized that the gameplay remains the primary focus and is solid overall.

    • “A+ for graphics”
    • “Graphics are real meh - almost subpar.”
    • “Can't really tell anything else about it, since the graphics aren't important and the gameplay is quite solid really.”
  • story
