What players say

Players describe it as a free minimalist 2D action game where you eat smaller shapes and avoid bigger ones, similar to the cell stage of Spore. Reviews are split: some find it a decent time-waster, while many complain the AI is unfairly fast and agile, especially on the first level, and that the game feels abandoned by the developer.
