Mechanically though, the game is about memorization and trial-and-error. There's one point in the final level where the game tells you to move upwards and you have two blocks that are moving upwards. But one leads you to the exit, and one to a dead end. You even make the red herring start moving first so the player doesn't notice the correct one is an option. There is no way to beat the last level without failing, restarting, and trying again until you've memorized the pattern. The other levels are less egregious in that respect but it's always a factor.
These graphics could have complimented a simple and engaging puzzle game, but instead the game just feels like a really shiny and heartfelt "fuck you" to the player for not knowing the levels ahead of time.
