What players say

Players praise the core screen-wrapping mechanic and clever puzzle design, but opinions split on later levels: some enjoy the challenge while others find them frustrating due to no checkpoints and long sequences. The game had a memory leak that was fixed years after release, and the level editor no longer works.
