22% positive mentions, 61% neutral mentions, 17% negative mentions
The gameplay is characterized by its simple yet unique mechanics, offering a solid puzzle experience that challenges players with tightly-designed levels and the introduction of new mechanics as they progress. While some users found the controls frustrating and the overall value questionable, others appreciated the depth and complexity of the puzzles, likening the experience to a Rubik's Cube where strategic movement is key. Overall, the game is recommended for those who enjoy a good challenge, especially if purchased at a discount.
- “The overall design and simple mechanics are very good.”
- “Great level design, unique artistic balance, simple mechanics, and a frustratingly great mastery point make for a recommended title.”
- “Ultimately, I sadly cannot recommend this game as the controls and the gameplay are quite bad.”
- “The puzzles are very tightly designed, constricted to small spaces but requiring upwards of a hundred moves to traverse in later levels, and new mechanics are introduced in each new puzzle set to make things just that more complex.”
- “The only mechanical improvement I found was that I asked for a slightly different control scheme (tab vs n to change selected cube).”
music

25% positive mentions, 50% neutral mentions, 25% negative mentions
The music in the game is described as relaxing and atmospheric, reminiscent of titles like Portal 2, but it can become repetitive and insistent, leading to frustration during challenging levels. While some players appreciate the calming effect of the soundtrack, others feel it lacks variety and can detract from the overall experience, especially during prolonged gameplay. Overall, the music contributes positively to the ambiance but could benefit from more diversity and creativity.
- “Relaxing music and great puzzle design.”
- “The game looks very nice even for its simplicity, and the ambient music is relaxing enough to calm you but not distracting enough to tear you away from the game while playing.”
- “I got this game for the soundtrack.”
- “The music is repetitive and boring.”
- “After the 42nd similar sequence of events, level 15 was beyond snark, it had gone beyond the blackest and darkest evil that has ever existed and that music playing in my ears hauntingly regaling me with the same distorted laserlight carnival tune like it's laughing at my aggravation, telling me I'll never finish this level, and seeming to grow louder and louder as the level bests me yet another time, I pressed alt+f4 and (uncharacteristically) rage quit entirely out of the application.”
- “15 had ceased its biting refrain, and the music had gone dead.”

- “Pleasant art style.”
- “Starts easy, gets harder; simple but nice looking graphics that get the job done.”
- “I also like the visuals and how the colors are used as well.”
- “It would help if the camera was fixed because you have to constantly rotate, and that for me is a major issue as it takes you out of the whole experience. The graphics are also a miss, unpolished and not easy on the eye, and the music is repetitive and boring.”
- “The graphics are fine; such a simple game doesn't need better graphics.”
- “The graphics are fine; such a simple game doesn't need better graphics.”
