The gameplay features a unique platforming experience, but players may struggle initially due to a poorly explained recharge mechanic that significantly eases difficulty once understood. Combat lacks variety, and while the game is considered average overall, the platforming elements are enjoyable for those who grasp the mechanics.

“Gameplay 9/10”
“Now after understanding this mechanic, the game becomes a lot easier, but it does bug me that this mechanic isn't explained or mentioned in any way inside the game.”
“I spent the first 10 minutes wondering why the game was so hard. After looking up some videos, I realized that there is an entire recharge mechanic that I was missing, which would make the game a lot easier.”

“Bought the game on discount; the gameplay is pretty average. The idea is interesting, but the author still needs to try harder. I played it for about 30 hours, and I would rather not recommend it.”
