The game acts like it is designed for kids. It follows all the obnoxious gen Z trends, everything is in superbright colors, and speaks their design language. Hard to imagine that its userbase isn't mostly kids.

Kids' TV shows tend to have secondary audiences of their parents. I think this wouldn't apply to games as much but maybe there's some of that.
