>the gameplay is simple but not the main thing
That's a really vague criterion. For example I'd personally say that the Ys games have anime style and have very simple gameplay (especially the bump system games) but I wouldn't write them off as having no substance as games, some of them are pretty tough and that fucking bat lives eternally in my head rent-free. Popful Mail that I posted earlier is also a fairly uncomplicated action platformer but also has a fairly brutal difficulty curve depending on the version of the game. That's admittedly just a few examples from the same dev but the line between actual game that happens to have anime style and games without substance that exclusively exist to prey on otaku is a very fine one to say the least.
