What players say
Players describe it as a relaxing turn-based ball-rolling puzzle with no timing elements. The 96 levels are challenging but fair, with a hint system that only suggests the next move. Some players wish the rhyming story instructions were clearer, and a few report a persistent camera effect causing motion sickness.
