But sometimes the collisions with the words seem really odd. I'll be moving in an empty space and die suddenly. I'll hit a positive word, get "Life" to pop up on-screen, then death will pop up elsewhere and the game ends. I'm not sure, but it's not a terribly enjoyable experience when my actions seem to be either ignored, or a largely futile. It just ends up where it's not terribly interesting to interact with, considering the limited scope of reactions to my input.
If feels incomplete, rather than minimalist. But it is unconventional for sure.
