“Although it looks easy, it isn't—the mechanics are simple, but the game itself is very challenging and gripping.”
“Wave mechanics generates its puzzles procedurally, which is very impressive on one hand as the generated puzzles are quite good, however, as the difficulty increases, I certainly miss the human touch to make some of the levels a bit more approachable.”
