The gameplay is characterized by a unique blend of grotesque aesthetics and modular mechanics, reminiscent of a bio-mechanical version of Pipe Dream, featuring 8-bit-style visuals. However, many users feel it lacks depth and progression, often describing it as more of a demo than a fully realized game, with limited playtime that doesn't extend beyond an hour. While the basic mechanics are solid, the overall experience could benefit from more content and gameplay milestones.

The game suffers from significant optimization issues, particularly becoming unplayably laggy around 100,000 points, which detracts from the overall experience. Players feel that the lack of optimization limits gameplay options at higher levels.
- “This game needs optimization badly; around 100,000 points, it becomes unplayably laggy, and there's not much to do then anyway.”
