I like my games like a Blue Mars: atmospheric. Fresh tomatoes only, please.

But seriously, music was spot-on, complementing the relaxing gameplay. Relaxing until you have to drift your way out of a crater. Whole thing is an attention test. Loved it.

Great game.  I didn't realize how much I wanted to drive a rover around.  During the boring sections I was hypnotized by the map scrolling past.  Game play is punctuated by scary cliffs that have to be navigated that creates a nice roller-coaster shaped attention curve.  My one gripe would be that I didn't know I only had enough energy to ping 3 / 4 times and still make it to the station so I wasted a lot of time on runs where it was impossible to succeed.

Haha well we didn't want to make it TOO easy ;) Tip: don't over do it on the Pinging, that drains your battery FAST!
