How it feels

A box-pushing puzzle game that feels like calm, deliberate observation and clever use of varied contraptions: roll carts, use sound, and search for hidden paths.

What players say

Players praise the game as a creative Sokoban variant stuffed with Chinese cultural references and pixel art charm, but consistently note a lack of undo, collision bugs, performance delays, and too few levels.
