The game's stability is significantly undermined by confusing navigation mechanics, particularly the inability to turn around, which often leads to players getting stuck or experiencing softlocks. This lack of coherence in movement contributes to a frustrating gameplay experience, as players are left without clear direction and may encounter frequent freezes.
- “For some reason instead of going back, you 'turn around', which not only makes the game more confusing to navigate, as the scenario is not coherent enough, but it also doesn't work most of the time. Literally, for no reason, the game won't let you turn around, and the only thing you can do is go forward, with no clue on where you are heading, most likely hitting a softlock that freezes the game.”
