- “That said, there are definitely some good points to the game - levels that are really fun, with interesting maze mechanics (such as a maze of all transparent walls).”
- “It's like two different games, as though the author got tired of one gameplay style and switched to another midway through.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious, suggesting that the lack of varied landmarks and angles diminishes the enjoyment of exploration. They feel that introducing more diverse elements could enhance the experience and reduce the monotony.
- “I suppose that's the point, but I feel like a few landmarks and a couple of non-right angles would really help make the exploration fun rather than quickly tedious.”

The story is largely considered minimal and unengaging, with many players opting to skip through it quickly due to its lack of substance.
- “The story, to the extent it exists at all, is best skipped as quickly as you can tap through it (which is very quick, thankfully).”
