The gameplay is described as simple and initially fun, but many players feel it lacks depth and replayability, often becoming boring after a short period. While the mechanics are easy to learn, there is a consensus that the game would benefit from additional features, maps, and mechanics to enhance the experience and encourage longer play sessions. Suggestions for improvement include adding traps, light control, and more varied objectives to increase engagement.
- “The gameplay mechanics are easy to learn and don't have many complex tricks; it is just basic hide and seek, earning points as you go.”
- “Many times, as a hider, I was impressed after getting caught by a seeker without more fuel since I couldn't see him, so this could be a good mechanic to catch people off guard.”
- “Good gameplay; the visuals are good too.”
- “This game has a lot of potential, but I would change some things because it felt lacking in mechanics and replayability (I'm reviewing this with the library map).”
- “It's nice to play this for 30 minutes to a maximum of 1 hour, then it gets pretty boring because there's no replayability or more mechanics to do anything else to outplay.”
- “It doesn't have enough maps, mechanics, or replayability yet, which is why I think at this point it should be sold for roughly a dollar. Once it's out of early access with more mechanics and plenty of maps, as well as the option for custom-made maps, then I would sell it for probably $5-$7.50 AUD depending on the reviews and success.”

The game currently suffers from limited replayability due to predictable object placements and a lack of diverse mechanics, making it easy for players to become accustomed to the gameplay. Users express a desire for changes that would enhance the experience, such as randomized object locations and additional gameplay elements, to encourage repeated play sessions. Without these improvements, the game tends to become monotonous after a short duration.
- “The game offers a fresh experience every time, as objects are randomly placed, making it challenging to adapt and ensuring high replayability.”
- “With the seeker constantly gaining ground on the hider, each round feels unique and intense, enhancing the game's replay value.”
- “The dynamic nature of the game keeps players on their toes, as familiar strategies may not work twice, making each playthrough exciting and unpredictable.”
- “This game has a lot of potential, but I would change some things because it felt lacking in mechanics and replayability (I'm reviewing this with the library map).”
- “I hope some of these mechanics get added since I would like to play this again with my friends and get more people to play it. It's nice to play this for 30 minutes to a maximum of 1 hour, but then it gets pretty boring because there's no replayability or more mechanics to outplay.”
