The gameplay mechanics are considered mediocre and not particularly enjoyable, though some users find the low price of 79p justifiable. Additionally, the game attempts to incorporate complex scientific theories, such as quantum mechanics and relativity, into its design.
“The mechanics of the game are pretty mediocre, but the game is only 79p, so I will allow it. Overall, it's not that fun.”
