    • “Puzzles are well thought out and new mechanics are introduced without feeling overwhelming or like their purpose is to arbitrarily stump the player.”

    • “I could very much appreciate a 2D puzzler with an appropriately matching soundtrack, and no need for the cliché 8-bit reduced quality.”

    • “The art and music are charming, but you can see and hear that on the store page.”
