Well after having tried it, I must say I'm pretty disappointed by this game

-1 the soundtrack play speed is linked to the game speed which means that when you're enjoying a tune, it might be screwed up by your need to slow down the pace of the game.

-2 I thought it would be relaxing when in fact the game is very difficult very fast. You get thrown into a mess which wants to eat you (either passively or actively), and if you don't slow the game down then you get about 2s before getting eaten ...
and a single isolated bad move in a 20 minutes play time can make you restart the whole level... (depending on the level)
best level was the puzzle one probably, but then there was only one ...

worst of all : no difficulty adjustment ...
only solution, randomizing the level generation in the hope that you get better odds

Frustrating ....
