Looking at gameplay of the mobile versions of this game kinda ruined it for me, since this was incredibly obviously made for those platforms. Absolutely no reason for this to have a PC port.

It's busywork. It's not even interesting busywork, like a crossword or sudoku or something, pretty much everything here is "walk over here and get this item and put it in the spot that it's supposed to go" or "copy the pattern from this 7x7 grid onto this other 7x7 grid exactly". There's a couple speedbumps here and there but they felt more like mistakes than puzzles, like the game wasn't properly conveying what it wanted me to do. But that only happened once every 20 minutes or so, pretty much all of this is just a simple completion task one after another. Which, I guess, is fine if you're just using it to kill 5 minutes on the bus, but it's kind of a drag in increments longer than that.

I played a little bit past the first half but the only thing that happens is that the levels get longer. It's just the same exact busywork completion tasks as before, but there's a bunch of them strung together. Add to that the really clumsy port job (on mobile, this is a point and click game, not a game where you walk around! So what would take 5 seconds there takes 20 on the PC port, because you can't walk down a 1 foot tall ledge, and you can't jump over 6 inches of shrubbery, plus you have to slowly walk there instead of just tapping and being there) and I realized that it wasn't worth my time to keep at it for the hour or so left of this. Skip.
