Boring and unintuitive. The game is about 90% frustration trying to predict what it wants you to do next, making it a puzzler in a perverse sort of way. Most of the remaining 10% is the artsy package it's wrapped in that I don't care for either, but that's just for me.

If you are playing this and are experiencing this frustration, the answer is usually that there's an unclued item in the background that you're supposed to interact with.
