3 ok games in 1, LOTS of running around

This game is 3 games in 1. 1 is a walking around game kind of like monkey island. 1 is a turn based game kind of like the combat in darkest dungeon (without the party and difficulty). 1 is minigames like warioware. It unfortunately doesn't do any of them well enough to counteract the time wasted running around. The basic loop is you run around and interact with everything the game wants you to, do minigames to make money to upgrade your stuff, then do 1 on 1 turn based battle, then repeat. It kept going like this at the point where I stopped playing which was somewhere between fight 5-10 so I don't know if it changes later. You run around this game a LOT. It has a overworld map but each area has a beginning screen that takes a few seconds to run across to the main area and back. You have to do that so many times that it gets VERY tedious. There are a few secrets and a few events in them but 95% of the time you are just running through them just because. The dialogue and text are ok but it's not good enough to counter the running around needed for them. The minigames are just ok. Some just happens to be easier to make more money so I just stick with that until I'm fully upgraded. Typically takes about 5-10 attempts that last a few minutes each time. The turn based combat is just ok as well. You have action points you use to move around in a linear line, attack, or perform some action. You move around to manipulate your and your opponent's attack range or to get a slight boost in attack in some spots. You can slightly customize your mech but usually you just use 1 of 2 best part for each spot available at the time. Pilot actions follow a similar pattern but with a few more choices. Pilot actions vary in action point cost, damage, range, reload amount, armor, taunt to specific part, healing, etc. To me, the game was ok and I probably could have finished it if it didn't have SO MUCH time wasted running around. If you can tolerate that, then it may be ok for you.
