You cannot "play" Death Stranding, GoW, Last of Us and call them good games and complain about this one, because is almost the same experience: Start the game, put the control down and keep watching cutscenes until it ends 😂.
Jokes aside, this game is aimed to very, very, very young children, which may not have enough age to grasp video game functionality. I think if they added some very easy challenge, the game could had worked better than letting it play itself.
Only "play it" if you have very young children in your house.
