grinding
2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious, as it often turns into a repetitive clicking exercise to navigate characters through increasingly difficult levels filled with randomized pathfinding challenges. The game features a significant number of levels, but the escalating difficulty may lead to frustration rather than enjoyment.
- “This game is a tedious puzzler that devolves into a frenzied clicking fest, requiring players to rotate tiles in a pipeline-style to route characters away from instant-death pits with randomized pathfinding.”
- “While there are a fair number of levels, I can only assume that the difficulty and, consequently, the tediousness increases as more pathfinding types are introduced.”
