The goal of the game is to involve as far as possible. It features new missions compared to its predecessor.

German online video game magazine ntower gave the game 5 out of 10 points, and wrote: "[...] Das Gameplay ist extrem simpel gehalten, im Gegensatz zum Vorgänger gibt es jedoch immerhin kleinere Missionen. Visuell ist Sparkle 3 Genesis recht ansprechend und dient vor allem Dingen einem Zweck: Sich zu entspannen. [...]" (" [...] The gameplay is extremely simple, however, in contrast to the predecessor, there are at least small missions. Visually, Sparkle 3 Genesis is quite appealing and serves one purpose above all: to relax. [...]").[6]
Online video game magazine switchplayer.net gave the game 2.5 out of 5 stars, and wrote: "[The game] is a kind of contemplative experience that puts you in control of an ever-evolving creature. Unfortunately, it lacks variety and sounds more like a mini-game stretched out to become longer and, consequently, tedious."[5]
