The story has received mixed reviews, with many players finding it shallow and lacking depth, often describing it as more suited for a young adult audience.

- “Great graphics and storytelling, love the robot assistant idea.”
- “Beating the story (~3 hours) unlocks a fun gravity gun style wave shooter mode 'zombie challenge' with a leaderboard.”
- “The story itself is paper-thin and not immersive, which is compounded by the short nature of the game.”

The gameplay features a variety of mechanics introduced in each level, but they are not retained in subsequent areas, which some players find disappointing. While the game is short enough to prevent mechanics from becoming overly repetitive, it lacks replay value. Additionally, the reliance on hints for interactable items is criticized as a poor design choice, although some players enjoyed specific elements like the "minecart" gameplay.
- “I really enjoyed the 'minecart' gameplay.”
- “Each level integrates a new mechanic; however, they aren't carried over to future areas, which is a bummer.”
- “True, it occasionally points you to an interactable item that you missed in your pixel hunt, but that is just a crutch for what is a horrible mechanic in the first place.”
- “The game is short enough that the mechanics didn't get too repetitive; however, bear in mind that once you finish the game, you wouldn't be playing it again.”
