The graphics are criticized for being low-resolution and lacking creativity, with a suggestion that thematic designs for the blocks would enhance the visual experience. Additionally, the mapping of controls is poorly executed, detracting from the overall gameplay experience.
- “For that reason, there's effectively zero game content that you can't get from Sokoban. The lazy low-resolution graphics make it feel unpolished, and they mapped my HOTAS as if it were a peasant controller, causing the mouse pointer to keep going to the top right.”
- “A purely aesthetic change would have felt more complete if the blocks themselves, both movable and immovable, were themed.”
- “Non-aesthetic changes could have involved changing level sizes or layouts.”

The gameplay is characterized as "timeless sokoban," but some users criticize it for lacking innovation, as it does not introduce new mechanics, has no story, and features no leaderboards, which limits its appeal.
- “Timeless Sokoban gameplay”
- “The mechanics are intuitive and engaging, making every level a satisfying challenge.”
- “The puzzles are cleverly designed, providing a perfect balance of difficulty and fun.”
- “Since the game has no story, has no leaderboards, and introduces no new mechanics, there is no good reason for this restriction.”
grinding

Players find that the grinding aspect of the game becomes tedious as the puzzle difficulty increases primarily through added complexity rather than size, with levels often feeling restrictive and repetitive. While some shorter levels offer clever challenges, the overall experience can feel monotonous due to the limited scale and escalating block movement requirements.
- “But even by the middle levels, it became obvious that the puzzle difficulty advanced mostly by becoming more tedious and space-restrictive: the 72 levels never get bigger than around 8x8 (most are smaller), but they do add more and more blocks to be moved.”
- “When a tedious level was followed by shorter levels that had to be more clever because of their simplicity.”
