- “The mechanics are annoying and hyper simplistic.”
- “The game does a good job of always throwing you something to do - I wish the pace of bomb dropping was lower. By mid-game, bombs with shorter fuses start appearing and the levels get larger. I can imagine that by late game, the gameplay devolves into almost a slow grind to remove obstacles, learn the connect-the-dot pattern, and let bombs explode, only connecting it all in one shot at the very end.”
