How it feels
A methodical logic puzzle where you manually redirect a character through traps and mechanisms, often failing in unexpected ways.

What players say
Players describe a logic-puzzle hybrid of Sokoban and Lemmings that starts gently but spikes brutally around level 20-30. Solving each puzzle feels intensely rewarding, though some say later solutions seem unintended. Mini-games are flagged as buggy and alt-tabbing in fullscreen breaks the game.
