How could I miss such a curiosity! It is a sort of "game concept" composed of 8 stages (unfortunately, only).
An android head in the middle of the screen, wires everywhere, colorful flash widgets, a psychedelic soundtrack signed Stephane Picq (Dune) . . . everything I love!
The goal: awaken the beauty by fixing the wiring in her brain before your opponent. You can sabotage his work, steal his parts, but be careful because he can do the same! The handling is a bit akward at first but if you do not touch anything and wait until the demo starts and watch it, you get to understand the gameplay.
A word about the "music", it is actually a collection of samples that are played sporadically based on the moves made by the two players (human or computer). This results in a maelstrom of sounds that contributes to the very atmospheric ambience of the game.
