I thought it was a lovely simplification of the mechanics of communication and social intelligence.
It's also extremely interesting from an artificial intelligence perspective, or even from the perspective of the definition of intelligence.
A language essentially develops from the constraints the mechanics of the game imposes (and this might be temporary, or with multiple meanings associated to the same gestures, to be evaluated contextually within different successive state evaluations).
This game delighted me from an artistic perspective, in that it demonstrated interesting ideas to me about social abstraction and social adaptability.
