“Has a very nice learning curve and smooth introduction of new mechanics.”
“Trial and error is the gameplay, but you need to think because the number of possible options rises and it's much faster to use your wits than to brute force every option.”
“The mechanics are introduced nice and slowly and the game makes sure that you understood their interactions before giving some more difficult puzzles.”
“At first I was disappointed - the mechanics were very basic, I was completing levels one after another.”
“The developers have thrown a lot of mechanics into the game but very few levels are actually challenging on a satisfying scale.”
“The only two negatives I have for this game are that you can brute force a lot of the early and mid-game levels as in many positions there aren't that many moves you can take that won't lead you to a losing position instantly.”
