The gameplay is characterized by its simplistic design paired with intricate mechanics, particularly the innovative use of gravity to solve puzzles, which keeps the experience fresh and engaging. While the game can be completed relatively quickly, it offers smooth and enjoyable gameplay that encourages experimentation without the frustration of frequent restarts. Overall, it is recommended for fans of puzzle platformers, especially when available at a discount.
“The mechanic of changing gravity in order to solve the different puzzles is used very well in this puzzle platformer.”
“Each stage requires you to use that mechanic in a different way, which avoids the dreaded repetition so many of these games have.”
“I'm not saying the gameplay is difficult (finished it in ~90 mins with 100% completion - so anywhere from 1hr-3hrs for this game).”
“One thing that constantly aggravated me during gameplay is how fast the force moves during the game (hmm, the force is strong with this one).”
“Gameplay is thought out and set up so you get to try and experiment with different setups as you play... without having to restart the level... which is refreshing.”
