- Works well on old hardware and offers a unique and addictive gameplay experience.
- The story feels unnecessary and detracts from the puzzle experience.
- Microtransactions for hints create frustration and a feeling of being forced to pay more.
- Graphics and UI are poorly designed, making the game feel like a low-quality console port.

The story in the game is widely criticized for being unnecessary and poorly executed, with a weak connection to the puzzles and a dull, emotionless narration. Many reviewers found the storytelling cringe-worthy and felt that the narrative elements were shoehorned in, detracting from the overall experience. Improvements in voice acting and a more cohesive integration of puzzles and story could have significantly enhanced the game's potential.
“Perhaps it gives you more depth in the story.”
“Very thought-provoking with a good story; a lot of bad reviews come from the option to buy hints, but hints are given if you're still having a problem after around 4 minutes.”
“First of all, the developers decided to embed the puzzles into a narrated story that slowly unfolds when you successfully solve the puzzles.”
“The connection between the puzzles and the story is weak; objects you've discovered are often shoehorned into the story.”
“But even worse, the story is narrated by the most dull and emotionless voice I've ever heard in a game.”
“The 'story' is cringe-worthy.”

The monetization strategy of the game has drawn criticism for including microtransactions, such as purchasing hints, despite being a paid title. Additionally, players are frustrated by the presence of advertisements promoting other games, which adds to the feeling of being upsold after already paying for the game.
“You can buy 'hints' to help you find what you're looking for, but this raises concerns about microtransactions in a paid game.”
“I find it frustrating that there are in-app purchases on top of a game I already paid for.”
“You can buy 'hints' to tell you what you are looking for, cough microtransactions on a paid game cough, but this isn't what my complaint is about.”
“There are advertisements in the game directing you to their website for other mobile games.”
“On top of the in-app purchases, in a game I already spent money to buy?”

The music in the game is largely described as ambient and lacking in engagement, with players noting that the exciting tracks featured in the trailer do not appear during the initial levels. Many users express disappointment, feeling that the music serves more as background noise rather than enhancing the gameplay experience.
