Cute but no appealing

This game might be cute somehow, but I don't understand the high rates. I can barley control my hero, just walk from left to right and attack some random enemies. Sure the art is cute if you like the style (I actually I don't, but that is just my taste), but where the hell is actual gameplay which sucks me into the game. I got bored after less then 5 minutes, tried to keep playing but couldn't.
