While the game features enjoyable and straightforward puzzles, players have reported a significant stability issue where a glitch causes one puzzle to freeze and crash the game, preventing 100% completion of achievements.
“Fun and simple puzzles; however, the downside is that you can't achieve 100% completion for the achievements due to a glitch where one of the puzzles freezes, causing the game to crash.”
