The gameplay is enjoyable and well-executed, featuring solid mechanics that allow players to master puzzles within a compact play area. While the experience may feel somewhat repetitive due to similar environments, the introduction of varied levels towards the end provides a refreshing change. Overall, the game is fun and polished, though it could benefit from additional mechanics and more complex puzzles to enhance depth.
- “Solid game mechanics.”
- “Once you hit the end of the game, you feel as though you've mastered the game's mechanics, and that you can solve any puzzle the game could throw at you.”
- “It's easy to lose yourself in the game, tweaking the angle of laser reflections and so on, with no artificial movement mechanics to think about.”
- “If you have played other games with these kinds of mechanics, then you are probably not going to find a lot new for you here. Compared to other games (such as Carpe Lucem - Seize the Light), there isn't a huge amount of content, but the room scale controls do add to the experience and it's fun to play through the levels, even if it's not all new.”
- “A lot of the game takes place down little trenches, which does feel a little samey after a while. However, the last set of levels switch up the environments, which makes for a really nice change, even if, by then, you will probably know enough about the mechanics that you won't be seeing them for too long!”
- “If some additional mechanics are added that require more thought and planning, along with more and better designed puzzles, it could be worth it.”
