The gameplay is minimalistic and lacks depth, focusing instead on a relaxing experience of growing a plant, reminiscent of a simplistic "snake" game. While the visuals and music are pleasant, the overall interaction is overly simplistic, leading to a lack of engaging gameplay elements.
“The idea of this 'art experience' is to 'relax' by growing a plant in what looks like a 'snake' ripoff from Construct 2. Don't laugh, they used Construct 2 for this; even if this was a game, it would disqualify it, except with all the gameplay removed.”
“Nice music, simple visuals, and very simple gameplay.”

The music in the game is described as relaxing and complements the simple visuals and gameplay, enhancing the overall experience. Players appreciate how the soothing soundtrack pairs well with the game's nature-themed elements, such as the occasional visits from bees and ladybugs.
“The developer behind this game is a master of game development; not only can you move the plant to the relaxing music, but sometimes you get visited by bees and ladybugs.”
“Nice music, simple visuals, and very simple gameplay.”
