The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some praising its simplicity and enjoyment, rating it as high as 9/10, while others criticize it for poor localization, lack of cohesive mechanics, and repetitive mechanics that quickly become tedious. Many players report frustration with interface issues, such as overlapping windows and an inability to quit from the main menu, leading to a lack of incentive to continue playing. Overall, the gameplay experience appears inconsistent, with significant room for improvement.
“The game has amazing, fairly simple gameplay.”
“Gameplay: 9/10”
“The gameplay is amazing!”
“After only 12 minutes of actual gameplay, this is certainly a harsh criticism and I'm sure the game will offer more features as it progresses, but after these 12 minutes I already know that I will never start the game again, as the game offers absolutely no incentive for me to do so.”
“Windows popping up on top of each other, poor localization (German) which leaves no idea what you actually clicked on for some options. The game can't be quit from the main menu, and it doesn't convey any idea of cohesive mechanics or balancing, which leads to just clicking on all available options during development rather than making a 'wise choice'. The bubble-click-boost mechanic gets old and annoying after just a few minutes.”
