The gameplay is noted for its uniqueness, particularly in its innovative use of sound, but it suffers from a lack of replayability due to the absence of random or infinite modes. Players find the progression too slow and the core gameplay loop unsatisfying, which detracts from the overall experience.
“Third: interesting gameplay, but since there's no 'random' and/or 'infinite' mode, there is no replayability, which would have been a really nice thing to have.”
“It's tempting to recommend this based on the fact that it's unique, and I'd like to see more games take chances like this has (particularly with uniquely using sound), but the core gameplay loop is just too stilted as it stands now.”

Players find the gameplay interesting; however, the lack of a "random" or "infinite" mode significantly limits replayability, which many feel would enhance the overall experience.

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and frustrating, often involving repetitive actions and a lack of clear direction, which detracts from the overall experience.
“This quickly, and I mean really quickly, became a tedious act of trying to remember where I had tried to walk and guessing where the path would go next.”
