I tried it yesterday. Interesting but odd and obtuse.
Not sure if bugs (maybe in Reason) or unimplemented features but some things just didn't seem to work. Effectively impossible to get exact Ratios.

Interestingly cloning what I did make in Algo by the numbers, resulted in a very different sound. I got closer by ear but just different in how it does things. Neither claims to be DX-accurate so not really surprising.

Yeah, I agree with the "odd and obtuse" description. The matrix layout and turning power buttons on and off for each node took awhile to get used to. Also, finally turning piano roll off helped the sound a lot. Velocity didn't seem to work all the time. Having said that, I did get some cool sounds out of it.
