The gameplay is criticized for its lack of quality in character control, leading to a disjointed experience in the 2D platformer. However, the game features a solid structure with an effective win-or-die-trying mechanic and the ability to save progress, allowing players to resume their adventure later.
“The game features a decent structure: the win-or-die-trying mechanic works well, and gameplay is saved so you can pick up again later.”
“Character and control miss the bar for quality, resulting in a 2D platformer that appears to be a mismatched collection of gameplay elements.”
