Awesome but short little puzzle game. Really took me by surprise. I started out playing this game using a guide for a quick 100%, but stayed for the story and atmosphere!

Short interesting puzzle game with a bit of a creepy atmosphere. I highly recommend you do not just go to the guide section of the game to cheat fly through the levels. The game is actually a bit too easy as I flew through it in 45 mins. There are only 30 levels, and I got the game on sale for a $1. I wouldn't really pay any more that $2-$3 as the game is repetitive, short, and has zero replay value. BUT...I did have fun with it... 6 / 10 ...on a deep sale

A delightful title indeed! It's a fun and quirky experience, especially with Patch’s voice—his commentary during the breaks adds a lot of charm. The humor really shines through, and it's always amusing to see such unique attempts in gameplay. The puzzles themselves can be quite tricky, though I guess that might just be me—some players may find them more approachable. But if you enjoy a challenge, this game delivers! Definitely worth giving a try, especially if you’re up for something different. Enjoy the 6-way experience, it’s a good one!

A clever puzzler with Escher-like models that trick your eyes as you move a block to its goal. It feels like the game wants to engage you more than it lets on. A fun way to spend an hour or two!
