The gameplay is criticized for being frustrating and riddled with bugs, detracting from the intended calming experience of a puzzle game. Players face increasing complexity across levels, which may lead to more frustration than enjoyment.
- “Very poor puzzle game with a lot of bugs, and gameplay that is likely to be more frustrating than calming.”
- “More critically though is the frustrations of the gameplay itself - in the early (spring) levels you have 4 shapes and 4 colours and to get three stars on the level you need at least one of each, this increases to 5/4 in summer, 5/5 in autumn and finally six of each in winter.”
