The game features beautiful space-themed images and a relaxing atmosphere, making it enjoyable for puzzle lovers.
It offers a unique twist with the rocket-building mechanic, allowing players to earn extra achievements while solving puzzles.
The game is accessible to players of all skill levels, with puzzles ranging from easy to challenging, and easy achievements for completionists.

The background noise can be painfully loud, and muting the music also mutes all in-game sounds, which can detract from the experience.
Many puzzles are considered too easy, and there is a limited variety of puzzles for the price, leading to a sense of repetitiveness.
The game has some bugs, particularly with pieces falling through the board, and the astronaut character can become annoying over time.

The gameplay is characterized by traditional puzzle mechanics with a unique twist, such as rotating pieces and utilizing power-ups, which enhance the experience. However, players note a lack of variety and replayability, as well as some frustrating design choices that detract from overall enjoyment. While the cosmic theme and initial puzzle-solving can be engaging, the experience may become tedious over time.
- “The added challenge of rotating pieces and employing power-ups like satellites, which I liken to calling upon the mystical powers of the ice wolves, elevates the gameplay.”
- “Its cosmic beauty and unique gameplay make it a must-try for anyone who enjoys puzzles and the wonders of space.”
- “So, the new mechanics of trading hints for achievements is kind of cool and encourages clean completion, and assembling the rocket itself is fun at the beginning.”

- “There is no replayability in this game as there are no end game mechanics or puzzle randomness.”
- “Some poor gameplay design (still no idea what the point of launching a rocket is?) makes for a bland and not very fun experience.”
