I saw a different presentation of this game than Emily and what I saw was 95% puzzling, and 5% action. The action boils down to a slow-moving robot approaching you gradually, and you having to pick the right sound from your inventory to disable it. You don't have to shoot it or melee attack it or anything.
To my mind it's an adventure game that happens to be direct controlled and also has some puzzles disguised as action. Despite having the appearance of BGE, it's not like that at all. Judging from the demo, it has a Full Throttle levels of action at most.
The Metronome guys seemed very adventure literate by the way, referencing multiple adventure games during their talk. At the very least, we should not write this one off right away.
