    The gameplay features a charming collectathon experience centered around a unique cube-laying mechanic, where players strategically place togges to uncover collectibles and solve puzzles. While the visuals and music are praised for their vibrancy and charm, some players find the gameplay inconsistent and initially complex, though it becomes more enjoyable as they adapt. Overall, the game shows potential for fun and creativity, especially after patches that address earlier issues.

    • “A delightful collectathon built around a novel and versatile cube-laying mechanic.”
    • “A unique gameplay that uses togges (the little charismatic cubes) as a means of exploration (each colored togge has different capabilities) and to solve puzzles in a well-crafted world that has the perfect size.”
    • “The block mechanics are really clever, the visuals are vibrant, the music surprised me a lot, and I laughed a few times while playing.”
    • “Cute graphics, sounds, music, texts and characters, but the idea and gameplay is not fun and not intuitive.”
    • “For starters, the togge connecting mechanic is... inconsistent.”
    • “Overall I had my gripes but I think the game eventually started to grow on me thanks to some of the patches fixing some of the game's problems (originally can only carry one power-up for example) and there is a lot of love and passion put into it with its beautiful cartoonish visuals and creative traversal gameplay.”

Overall, the game's presentation is considered top-notch, with a strong emphasis on creativity and visual appeal.

    • “The presentation is top-notch, with a number of expansive and colorful worlds that all have their unique flavor and never feel derivative of typical platformer cliches: a pastry city in the middle of a desert, a level based on scaling a giant oriental-themed tree, a medieval town on a crescent moon... the sound and visuals are very nice, and it's always satisfying to absorb one of the fruits you're tasked with collecting.”
    • “Unreal Engine 4 visuals highlight vibrant colors and cutesy designs.”
    • “Overall, I had my gripes, but I think the game eventually started to grow on me thanks to some of the patches fixing some of the game's problems (originally could only carry one power-up, for example) and there is a lot of love and passion put into it with its beautiful cartoonish visuals and creative traversal gameplay.”
