This is a weird one. It's a small arcade-y game where you're a sea slug, and shells and enemies randomly appear on the screen. You can wear the shells, which you can then use to block enemy attacks (though only a limited amount of times) or throw the shell as an attacking projectile, which consumes the shell and then you have to dodge enemies until you get another shell.

And that's about it. The rest is just seeing how far you get and if you can get a high score. For me, this is a resounding "Meh".
