The gameplay is characterized by a charming and challenging puzzle design that introduces a variety of mechanics throughout the game, keeping players engaged. Levels are structured with a central path featuring easier puzzles that gradually introduce new concepts, while optional branches offer more difficult challenges for those seeking deeper engagement.
