I learned about it through a girl I'm currently seeing. She is very far removed from the whole tech scene. Her cousin told her to try it, and then she told me to try it and impress her by getting a high score. So I tried it, enjoyed it (masochism involved here), and the very next day my roommate asked me if I knew of the game. We've been competing with each other for high scores ever since.

So yes, at the beginning I thought it was good.
