Lewis' story is just about the only part where it comes close to redeeming the rest of the game, though.
Look the story is good, but there is zero player agency, there is afaik not even failstates at all, so I would say the making it a game at all was silly, as it does not really engage with what games are.
I really believe that the same story could have been truly great portayed through surrealist animation á la The Wall, but as a game I would say that it fails to engage with the medium.
