Nice relaxing puzzle game with beautiful graphics and calming music.
Fun and simple gameplay that makes it a great time killer, perfect for casual play.
Solid puzzles that challenge the mind and provide a nostalgic experience reminiscent of classic games.

Frequent collision issues where boulders get stuck, hindering progress and requiring level restarts.
Lack of variety in mechanics and a slow pace may leave some players wanting more challenge.
Achievements only go up to puzzle 35 despite having 50 puzzles, which feels incomplete.
