What players say
Players praise the tile-flipping puzzles for gradually introducing new mechanics at a gentle difficulty, with hints that avoid spoiling the solution. The story about a girl heading home is described as touching and emotional by many, though a few find the cutscenes flat and the soundtrack repetitive.
