Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and excessively slow-paced, with a level selection process that prolongs gameplay unnecessarily. The minimalistic design and lack of features, such as achievements and cloud saving, contribute to a frustrating experience that feels more suited for mobile play than PC. Overall, the grinding is seen as a significant drawback, making the game less enjoyable for repeated play.
“It is tedious, ultra-slow paced; I suppose they try to stretch a 25-minute game to some 50 minutes.”
“The game is super minimalistic, featuring a tedious previous-next level select that takes a lot of time to switch between levels, with just mute and fullscreen toggles. It's perfect for playing once on the phone and never again.”
“One achievement, no cloud saving (but not needed anyway), almost no settings, no progress reset, and a tedious level select. It feels made for the phone but sold on a PC.”
