The gameplay is characterized by a lazy minimalist art style and resembles that of a mobile app, leading some users to question its originality and quality, though its free availability mitigates concerns about it being an asset flip.
“The gameplay feels incredibly shallow and repetitive, making it hard to stay engaged for long.”
“The controls are unresponsive and clunky, which makes even simple tasks frustrating.”
