  • Clever and well-crafted puzzles that progressively increase in challenge and variety.
  • Cozy and relaxing vibe with satisfying and enjoyable mechanics, including a unique use of a cricket bat to interact with orbs.
  • Strong multiplayer/co-op mode that enhances fun and provides a different, laughter-filled experience with friends.
  • Alignment issues with the aiming crosshair and ball hits can cause frustration in gameplay.
  • Some players found the story to be mediocre or unengaging, and later puzzles occasionally becoming tedious.
  • The co-op campaign may feel short or lacking in content for some, with relatively few puzzles.
  • story
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is generally seen as well-written with good voice acting and enjoyable music, enhancing the single-player experience. However, it is considered somewhat average or "meh" by some players, and the cooperative mode lacks story content entirely. Overall, the story is appreciated but not a major highlight for all users.

    • “The story as far as I've played it is very well written and I'm very much looking forward to how it's gonna turn out.”
    • “The music ties in really nicely with the story of the single player mode and it was super fun playing through :)”
    • “I think the voice acting was really good and the story was alright.”
    • “Don't get me wrong, the puzzles are good and all, and looking at other reviews it seems like maybe there's a decent single player story to get through, but if you're buying this for the coop like I did, then it's not worth it at all for the 25 puzzles that are coop.”
    • “Later puzzles can be tedious and the story is a bit meh in my opinion.”
    • “The coop part doesn't contain any of the story, which is the right decision.”
  • gameplay
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is highly addictive and satisfying, with innovative mechanics that are gradually introduced to maintain freshness and increase challenge. It offers a comfortable yet engaging puzzle experience, supported by excellent level design. Even players new to puzzle games find it enjoyable and well-crafted.

    • “The mechanics are very satisfying, and few things feel better than sinking an orb right into the middle of a goal after figuring out a solution.”
    • “New mechanics are progressively rolled in as you get deeper and deeper into the game, keeping things fresh and steadily upping the challenge.”
    • “Great puzzle game with innovative, yet comfortable puzzle mechanics and a stellar level design to support them.”
  • music
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is praised for perfectly complementing the story and creating a relaxed, low-key atmosphere. It enhances the overall mood, making it ideal for casual play while enjoying the puzzles.

    • “The music ties in really nicely with the story of the single player mode and it was super fun playing through :)”
    • “Perfect game to sit down on the couch, at the PC or really anywhere to just chill for a while, listen to the great music and solve some puzzles.”
    • “I love the low-key feeling of the game, the mood and the music.”
  • humor
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find the humor in the game's playful interactions, such as using rocks to solve puzzles in unexpected ways, adding a lighthearted and amusing element to the experience.

  • grinding
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Grinding in the game can feel tedious, especially during later puzzles, which some players find monotonous. Additionally, the story may not be engaging enough to motivate continued play for all users.
