One of the most enjoyable things about playing Geometry Dash is the great sense of accomplishment one gets from finishing a challenging level. With time and practice, levels that were previously thought to be unachievable become easier to complete.

Yet another unique characteristic of this game is its active community. Using the inbuilt level editor, the community can create their own levels with literally thousands of various objects, triggers, and other visual effects. Thus, there are millions of levels created by the community for others to play – from very simple to extremely complicated and challenging.

In addition, the game encourages long-term commitment, as there are various cosmetic options to unlock, such as new icons, colors, trails, and other effects. These can be obtained via finishing certain achievements and secret missions in levels, as well as beating increasingly harder challenges.

Furthermore, the game helps improve one's ability to concentrate and react quickly, as well as to persist. Sometimes, completion of certain levels requires numerous attempts, and thus one learns how consistent work brings tangible results.
