Game encourages exploration to find spatulas and Patrick's socks, but also penalizes innovative exploration with invisible level boundaries that reset you at the beginning of the level. That being said, great game for kids since there is almost zero penalty for dying (you start back at the beginning of the room and keep everything you had collected). I enjoyed the puzzle-solving adventure and catchy soundtrack throughout! Physics are a little difficult to get used to, but that could partially be the age-factor.
