The gameplay is characterized by its simplicity and accessibility, making it easy for anyone to learn. However, as players progress through the 40 levels, the challenge intensifies, demanding critical thinking and strategy to overcome increasingly complex puzzles. The introduction of new mechanics throughout the game adds variety and depth to the experience.

The game's music is described as relaxing and contributes to a quiet, lively atmosphere, but players can only turn it off rather than adjust the volume. Despite being developed by a single person, the music complements the clean visual design and enhances the overall experience, although some players may find the inability to lower the volume limiting.
“Developed by just one person, the game features a clean visual design and music that creates a quiet and lively atmosphere, easy to understand, using only 4 directions to move mixed with mathematical reasoning (not too hard) combined with a journey of possibilities.”
“The music brings a relaxing vibe to the game, enhancing the overall experience.”
“It has relaxing music that unfortunately cannot be lowered, only turned off.”
