Gekraxel is easy to learn with wonderful game mechanics, making it a fun experience that can be enjoyed at any time.
The game features fast-paced gameplay and a minimalistic art style that enhances focus on gameplay, making it appealing for fans of precision-platformers.
The competitive aspect, including daily challenges and the ability to see the fastest runs, encourages players to improve their skills and enjoy the game repeatedly.

The lack of checkpoints and the slow wallclimbing mechanic can lead to significant frustration, especially with one-hit kills and excessive fall damage.
Players are immediately kicked out of a level upon dying in modes other than the Daily Challenge, which discourages speedrunning and can disrupt the flow of gameplay.
Some players have experienced technical issues, such as the game not working with controllers, which detracts from the overall experience.

Overall, the game effectively communicates essential gameplay information, enhancing the overall experience.
- “It is really easy to learn and the game mechanics are wonderful!”
- “This discourages speedrunning, which feels odd to me as the gameplay really lends itself to speedrunning.”
- “It makes gameplay information (when you can grab the walls, location of the portal) display really well and you can focus purely on getting the best path or fastest time through the level.”
