What it is

A charming adventure game with a minute-long time loop. Explore, solve puzzles, and fight enemies within each short cycle.

What players liked

Players praise Minit as a fun, minimalistic puzzle game, often compared to The Legend of Zelda, where knowledge and abilities persist through one-minute lives.

The catch

The one minute death gimmick wears thin fast and leaves mostly tedious backtracking.

Why it is here

It is here because it sits in the band this site looks at: well reviewed at 89% positive, but with 2,857 reviews, far fewer than the household names carry.
