Feel-A-Maze offers a unique and engaging gameplay experience that tests mouse control and dexterity, making it enjoyable for both casual and skilled players.
The game features a variety of levels, including a Christmas-themed bonus section, and provides a satisfying challenge for achievement hunters with easy-to-obtain achievements.
Despite its simplicity, the game has a charming presentation with decent music and visual effects that enhance the overall experience.

The game is very short, with most players able to complete it in under an hour, leading to concerns about its value at full price.
Controls can be frustratingly unresponsive, with issues like lag and the ball trailing behind the mouse cursor, making it difficult to achieve high scores.
Many players find the gameplay repetitive and overly reliant on memorization rather than skill, which can lead to frustration and a lack of enjoyment.

The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players enjoying the Christmas theme remix and finding the soundtrack generally pleasant, while others criticize it as repetitive and generic. Although the music enhances the experience for some, the inability to turn it off and the slow transitions during level restarts detract from the overall enjoyment. Overall, while the music is considered decent, it lacks standout qualities and can become annoying in certain contexts.
- “The music is cool, especially the Christmas theme remix.”
- “The music is enjoyable too; I've definitely heard worse music in these kinds of games. In this case, it was pretty cool.”
- “Nice soundtrack!”
- “This is frustrating because when you restart the levels, they transition slowly and the music is annoying.”
- “The game is repetitive; there are about 3-4 electronic soundtracks that are alright, but nothing special. I've seen at least one level be reused in this awfully short game; they just added more monsters to it.”
- “The music is okay, but you should not expect anything special.”

- “It's simple point A to point B gameplay, guide a ball to the goal, rinse and repeat, unlock an achievement.”
