The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players praising the cute and appealing art style, while others criticize the simplistic 2D visuals as a letdown, especially for a mobile app. Overall, many find the graphics charming and suitable for the game's puzzle-platformer approach, though some feel they lack depth and complexity. The visuals are generally described as neat and engaging, contributing positively to the overall experience.
- “Epic game fun puzzles, very insane graphics.”
- “Graphics 10/10.”
- “A charming, simple game with a good puzzle-platformer approach and nice art style.”
- “Simple, lazy 2D graphics are a massive letdown. This is to be expected from a mobile app, but also the nicest thing about this is that they aren't retro pixel art.”
- “Because 'free to play' caught and held my attention, I didn't read the other reviews that described the graphics as too simple (referring to the base levels only) or too chaotic (referring to past updates killing published levels) or too buggy (mostly from 2019) or too gory (it's now a puff of white fur; I didn't know it used to be blood!).”
- “Some game objects are available to buy for coins and diamonds to use, but they are mostly for aesthetic purposes, so you don't lose much without them.”

The gameplay is characterized by simple yet addictive mechanics, primarily involving movement on a 2D grid and puzzle-solving through object manipulation. While the introduction of mechanics is seamless and engaging, some players find the overall gameplay to be somewhat shallow compared to more complex titles. Additionally, the inclusion of tutorial-like levels may detract from the overall depth and replayability of the experience.
- “The devs clearly know how to make a good puzzle as mechanics get introduced seamlessly and create fascinating fusion.”
- “Simple mechanics but addicting gameplay.”
- “Gameplay consists of moving around a 2D grid level and pushing boxes and objects around to trigger various effects while avoiding enemies.”
- “While this is obviously technically deficient, and the gameplay is somewhat shallow in the era of games like CS:GO, Skyrim, and Mass Effect, that's not the real problem.”
- “There are a few sets of pack-in levels that are mostly just glorified tutorials, introducing you to various mechanics, enemy and power-up types, etc., one stage at a time.”

The game's monetization model has drawn mixed reviews, with many players criticizing the presence of microtransactions and labeling it as a cash grab, particularly for a title that originated as a mobile app. While some in-game purchases are purely cosmetic, others feel that the overall approach detracts from the experience, with calls for a one-time purchase option to unlock content instead. Despite these concerns, the initial free-to-play offering is still recommended for those on a budget.
- “Others have mentioned the elephant in the room that is this game's monetization model, but from what I've seen, the in-game purchases (apart from level expansion packs) are solely cosmetic.”
- “There are in-game purchases, so it's not truly free for gamers on a strict budget, but I do encourage checking out the first kingdom (which is free to play) at the very least.”
- “In-game purchases aren't needed so far, but I wish we could pay once on the store page to unlock some stuff and support the dev.”
- “Used to be pretty decent, but I hate that they added microtransactions.”
- “Utterly cancerous mobile app; pay-to-play/pay-to-win cash grabbing is the problem here.”
- “The reason I'm giving it a thumbs down compared to a thumbs up is the free-to-play monetization method they implemented.”
