The gameplay of the reviewed game features simple mechanics that are easy to learn and enjoyable for short sessions, reminiscent of popular puzzle games like "Puzzle Fighter" and "Puyo Pop." While some players appreciate the variety and depth introduced throughout the levels, others criticize the game for being a lackluster port with limited sound and visual appeal, suggesting it doesn't stand out in a saturated market. Overall, the gameplay is accessible and offers a mix of fun and challenge, though opinions vary on its originality and execution.
“The gameplay is comfortable and easy to grasp from the beginning and takes a bit before it gets challenging, but once it does, it offers a good variety of gameplay and level types.”
“This one-man team created a very deep puzzler with a ton of varying gameplay rules, resulting in some interesting twists.”
“Conclusion: between the lazy port to PC, the mechanics that have been played out before and done better in other casual games, the market saturation, the rather limited sound assets, and the plain and uninteresting visual presentation, I would advise to stay well away.”
“Very much a single-player version of many of the popular 'puzzle fighter' games, but with more streamlined mechanics (you're selecting which groups of blocks to 'pop' with your mouse instead of shifting the puzzle pieces to form combos).”
“A lot of the basic mechanics are pushed to the limit in this color matching game, twisting the direction and space of play.”
