It's not a demo, it's a complete product already being sold. I think it's nice that it isn't a traditional game.

I'm not a casual gamer so I think it's too simple. One should not however underestimate the casual gaming market, as it is huge.

I think it's not really a game and maybe calling it that sets unrealistic expectations. A toy? An experience?

I love things like this and wish there were more. I'm not a casual gamer and I'm not often a non-casual gamer (long periods of addiction to Minecraft, Skyrim and a few others not withstanding)

Maybe it's why I love PC VR which many "true gamers" complain is lacking in games. It's full of crazy, weird stuff and I love it.

You could also take a look at Dorfromantik. It's a similar game with actual goals and difficulty, but still with similar zen and calm aesthetics.
It is, in fact, a demo of that product.
