“The game has very innovative mechanics combining both completely original elements with concepts I've seen in other puzzle games to great effect and novel outcomes.”
“Smart puzzles, smart solutions, excellent excellent design, teaches you new mechanics in the most graceful and enjoyable way that makes you feel like your mind is expanding, similar to how it feels to discover new mechanics in Stephen's Sausage Roll!”
“The main temperature system is rich enough that the game would be worthwhile even just as an extended version of the first world, but instead we got area upon area of clever, surprising mechanics.”
“The mechanics are incredibly deep -- although they might be too deep, I'm still struggling to understand pistons.”
“All the mechanics in this game are very precise, and if you don't fully understand them, it will come back to bite you later.”
“The game doesn't really look impressive, but 10 worlds and 350 levels sounds like a lot of content, but what can you really do with just hot + cold mechanics?”
