I never understood the fascination with DM games. For some reason, they never tickled my gamer sweet spot. I could say 3 was okay, but I was never overly into it. This, however, really was awful. Some parts I could give fair excuses to. Cutscenes, fine, I play a lot of games with long cutscenes. Jumping puzzles. Well, I've always been poor at those, so it's probably just be. But the board game? No, I drew the line there. It's not difficult it's just boring and as you said, a pointless delay. That killed any sense of flow for me.
