Yes you can repeat that time for however long you feel like it, but I lose interest after that because it's the same game play loop over and over.
They're not intended to be used for long drawn out play sessions, and for some reason the only thing I can think is like a mission in Horizon Zero Dawn/ Forbidden West or Assassins Creed Valhalla where you're infiltrating a stronghold and it's intended to take longer than 15 minutes to do. Not to mention, I just don't think a mobile game with mobile controls could pull of the game play feel of those games.
They have their place, I guess, but they'll never replace PC or console gaming for me.
