“Simple mechanics but can be really challenging.”
“Very original mechanics!”
“Simple mechanics - some puzzles are easy, some devilishly difficult.”
“Unfortunately, the extra mechanics are used in only 2 levels each.”
“Other mechanics used in only a few of the levels are: having a few tiles that you must decide where they should be placed, and having a tile whose value you must pick.”

Users report significant stability issues, particularly when using the shift+tab function, which can result in the game freezing, failing to respond, or displaying an empty Steam UI. Overall, the game's stability is considered problematic and frustrating.
“Don't even try to do shift+tab because one of the three outcomes will happen: either it does nothing, or it freezes the game, or if you are 'lucky' enough to see the Steam UI show up, it will be 'empty'.”
