The gameplay is characterized by a surreal experience with numerous similar levels and a reliance on randomness, which can lead to repeated attempts. While some players find it challenging for a casual game, the matching mechanics and the option to purchase power-ups enhance enjoyment, despite hints of mobile game design and micro-transaction influences. Overall, players appreciate the fun factor, even if it requires some persistence.
