The graphics are cute and visually appealing, complemented by a relaxing soundtrack that enhances the overall gaming experience.
The inclusion of a hint system and the 'Ghost Cat' feature allows players to receive assistance when stuck, making the game more accessible and enjoyable.

The lack of an undo or rewind mechanic can lead to frustrating situations where players accidentally push blocks off the puzzle map, requiring a complete restart of the stage.
The camera controls can be problematic, especially at diagonal angles, making navigation and movement less intuitive.
The music, while initially relaxing, can become monotonous due to its repetitive nature, especially during prolonged play sessions.
