I’ve played it several times, and bought it to play with my wife who is pretty discerning when it comes to games. We like it a lot! A few thoughts:
Do you like doing puzzles? It’s definitely more of a puzzle like activity than any other games I’ve played. Honestly, it’s a one player game that you can play cooperatively.
I think the game excels in spurts. Playing one time and then waiting a week in between is a bit of a letdown. It shines when you score 120, then go again and score 140 and unlock a box, the playing again and using the new scoring conditions to score 160 and unlock something else. But because there’s not tooo much variation in gameplay, playing the entire campaign in a day (10-15 games maybe?) would be a slog.
Overall, it’s a game I’d pull out on a rainy cold day with pleasure, but wouldn’t bring to game night. Hope it helps!
