Players must utilize the gnome's flute in creative ways to interact with the environment. Common puzzle elements include making animals sing in harmony, manipulating sound-based mechanisms, and applying lateral thinking to discover solutions.

Each alien planet features a unique visual style, creatures, and interactive elements. Players can freely click on objects and characters, encouraging a sense of curiosity as they discover the varied, charming responses. Reviewers highlight this sense of exploration and discovery as a highlight.
