The music in the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with many players describing it as repetitive and grating, featuring short loops that quickly become stale. While some found it initially pleasant, the lack of variety and length led to frustration, prompting players to disable the soundtrack in favor of their own music. Overall, the music detracts from the gaming experience rather than enhancing it.
- “I relaxed for 5 minutes to this music long enough to realize that I was going to be okay.”
- “Music is well done and does not take away from your focus on the game.”
- “If the songs had been a little longer, or if there were tons of them shuffling while I played, it would have been more entertaining.”
- “Pretty run of the mill abstract puzzle game with some of the most ear-bleeding noise masquerading as 'music' I have ever heard in a game like this.”
- “The music consists entirely of endlessly repeating loops that you get to hear for multiple levels at a time, which really gets stale.”
- “The music is just abysmal.”

Gameplay reviews highlight a lack of depth and structure, with many players finding the initial levels too easy and unengaging, leading to a high uninstall rate. While some enjoy the calming reflection mechanic, the overall execution is criticized for its limited mechanics and poorly designed levels, resulting in a frustrating experience that fails to provide satisfying challenges. Additionally, the game's thematic elements have raised concerns about its messaging, further detracting from the gameplay experience.
- “I really enjoy the reflection mechanic, and it is calming and pleasant to play.”
- “The basic gameplay has you using dots on a board as pivots to move other dots to other parts of the board in an effort to get the one dot that's colored red to a specified point on the board.”
- “I actually really liked the mechanic for those puzzles, but quite early into the game it starts feeling really buggy.”
- “The most commonly and easily attained achievement is for finishing the first 10 levels (it's under 1 minute, so less than 10 minutes of gameplay), but only around 5 percent of players bothered to get that far before uninstalling the game.”
- “In the beginning, they start strong and teach you the basic mechanics, but a majority of them were way too easy and seemingly have no real structure other than semi-randomly scattered dots, most of which are just for distraction.”
- “Perhaps one of the reasons for the lack of mechanics is that the level design appears to be almost non-existent, as if the dots were just randomly placed in most cases.”

The graphics of the game have been criticized for their simplistic 2D art style, which lacks depth and quality despite resolution options that merely scale up the visuals without enhancing them. Reviewers note that the dated appearance and minimalistic design do not meet the expectations of PC gamers, resulting in a lackluster visual experience. Overall, the game's graphics are seen as a significant drawback, failing to impress or elevate the gameplay.
- “While there are options to change the resolution for the game, all this does is scale up the simplistic 2D art assets used to make the game, which makes little or no difference to the graphics quality.”
- “Without any other substantial graphics tweaks, it's not possible for gamers to improve the lackluster 2D visuals.”
- “Considering this is being evaluated as a PC game, having the graphics phoned in like this isn't going to result in a high quality, visually impressive game that PC gamers are used to seeing.”

Overall, the stability problems are a major drawback, overshadowing the game's potential.
- “Incredibly buggy.”
- “An interesting idea let down by cluttered puzzle design and game-breaking glitches.”

- “Moral of the story, you never know what life holds in store for you, and if I would have given up when all the odds were stacked against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
- “I don't need a portal or Turing test story to get me through a Sudoku in real life, but these puzzles don't have the same hook for me that something like Sudoku does, so a little something extra could have gone a long way.”
