What players say
Players praise the creative mix of sokoban-style sliding puzzles with Metroidvania exploration and RPG elements. The puzzles are varied and challenging, with a large map to explore and distinctive pixel art. Some find the puzzles start to feel repetitive before the end, and a few report minor bugs.
