Engaging and clever puzzle mechanics with unique tentacle navigation concept.
Beautiful, charming graphics and soothing, pleasant soundtrack with themed music per stage.
Progressive difficulty that starts easy but offers challenging puzzles that require strategic thinking.

Lacks widescreen resolution support resulting in black bars on larger monitors.
Controls can feel imprecise or faulty at turns, especially the tentacle movement and mouse following behavior.
Limited gamification elements and insufficient variety of items to use with earned coins.
