  • The game has an interesting concept and unique content that intrigued some players.
  • Some puzzles in the game were enjoyable and provided a fun experience in the initial stages.
  • There is potential for the game to be enjoyable if the crashing issues are resolved.
  • The game is plagued by constant crashes, making it unplayable for most users.
  • The tutorial fails to adequately teach core mechanics, leading to confusion during gameplay.
  • The game is very short, with repetitive objectives and limited content, resulting in a disappointing experience.
  • music
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has been criticized for being excessively loud compared to other sound effects, with players expressing a strong desire for volume control options. Additionally, the soundtrack, credited to Grey Killer, suffers from repetitive looping of the same track across multiple levels, leading to player frustration, especially when music is absent in certain instances. Overall, the music experience is seen as lacking variety and control.

    • “The music volume is stupidly loud, especially compared to the other game sounds.”
    • “For the love of Pete, give us the option to mute the music or to adjust it.”
    • “The store page notes a soundtrack by Grey Killer, but I got the same song in consecutive levels and it looped the whole time. The third level didn't have music before it crashed, and I gave up when I got the same objectives as the previous two.”
  • optimization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users report that crashes frequently occur when transitioning to the second level of the game, suggesting potential optimization issues or script errors related to the level transition.

    • “The crashes seem to happen when trying to load the second level of the game (after the basic tutorial). This may be caused by an optimization issue or the level transition itself. The crashes may also be caused by script errors being created by the AI.”
    • “The game suffers from severe optimization problems, leading to frequent frame drops and stuttering during gameplay.”
    • “I experienced multiple crashes and long loading times, which indicate that the optimization of the game is far from satisfactory.”
  • story
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is considered minimal and lacks depth, which may leave players wanting more. Additionally, a frustrating bug in a mission hampers the experience, as players struggle to complete a task without being caught.

    • “The story is very light and lacks depth.”
    • “The narrative feels underdeveloped and fails to engage the player.”
  • gameplay
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the gameplay experience frustrating due to a lack of effective tutorials that fail to adequately teach the core mechanics, leading to confusion and difficulty in mastering the game.

    • “But after a while, things got more infuriating, as the game doesn't teach you the core mechanics very well.”
    • “The tutorial doesn't teach the game mechanics well.”
