Has potential

You are supposed to be able to choose what the live action actors do at multiple points in the story, driving the direction that the story will take. Unfortunately I was only able to do this once per chapter, which was very frustrating because at the end of each chapter you were shown the plot map where all the decision points were. It was over very quick-15 minutes or so.The story had potential, the death of a child through the mothers negligence, a very sad and real accidental drowning in the tub.
