- The game is set in a solar system of a moon, a star, and four planets.

- The demo has 101 Steam user reviews, 100 percent of them positive.
Set in a solar system of a moon, a star, and four planets, it asks players to work out the rules of six celestial bodies by placing symbols on a grid and watching how they behave. It has more than 120 handcrafted puzzles, runs about 2 to 4 hours, and supports Japanese.
Dorta built the game around discovery rather than instruction. There is no long tutorial: each celestial body follows its own rules, and a rule worked out in one puzzle becomes the clue for the next. The six bodies can be visited in any order.
The demo has been available since September and has drawn 101 Steam user reviews, all of them positive. Comments cited in the report describe solving puzzles by trial and error without being sure of the rules, and praise the simple, logical presentation. The full release adds the remaining puzzles to that structure.
