Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
That been said I cannot stress out the replayability this title offers, especially if you are after the achivments as well, since most of them require an even tighter completion time on specific levels.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Paired with an energetic electronic soundtrack, the audiovisual design reinforces the relentless tempo of gameplay and helps sustain focus during repeated attempts.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
Very challenging and addictive game, when regular attempts to pass the level becomes some kind of meditation (if you will not crash your gamepad of the wall while playing first levels).
