The game features in-game achievements but lacks Steam achievements, which users feel would be a simple addition. Monetization heavily relies on intrusive in-game advertisements, especially promoting mobile games, despite the game being sold at full price. There are no in-app purchases, and many players find the ads disruptive and inappropriate for a paid PC title.
- “But since I paid full price for this game, why does it have ads?”
- “In-game advertising that promotes iOS games.”
- “Bunch of iOS advertising inside a PC game, displayed in a vertical screen using only about 1/8 of my PC screen.”

The gameplay is simple and involves bouncing objects to collect items, but it feels slow and underwhelming due to high randomness. While mechanics are introduced gradually, the controls add to the difficulty, impacting the overall experience.
- “Mechanics are introduced gradually, but the high amount of randomness erodes the puzzle base.”
- “Otherwise, mechanically it's just one of those 'toss the thing towards the thing so it bounces on the other thing and collect all the bling bling.'”
- “Even if this weren't a lazy port, the gameplay is slow and underwhelming.”
- “Mechanics are introduced gradually but the high amount of randomness erodes the puzzle base.”
- “While the gameplay is really simple, controls are the reason this game is quite hard.”

Users find the music repetitive and unpleasant, often recommending turning it off to avoid the irritating soundtrack. The sound design contributes to a frustrating and unsettling gameplay experience.
- “Sound & music”
- “Between the repetitive music on loop, the cartoon animals staring at you and making all kinds of attention-grabbing motions - the aggressive flash of white whenever you fail a level - and the general creeping sensation of helplessness from having this walnut fall clumsily everywhere with very indirect control over it.”
- “The soundtrack is painful.”
- “My suggestion if you do play the game is to turn off the music as soon as possible.”
