30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's the perfect mix of a Low skill floor, a *VERY* high skill ceiling, and high skill expression.

Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
5 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's supposed to be a meaningless mesh of random objects and assets, and it definitely succeeds in that, but I found some parts especially peaceful in combination with the sound design.
