Minit is a peculiar little adventure played sixty seconds at a time. Journey outside the comfort of your home to help unusual folk, uncover countless secrets, and overcome dangerous foes, all in hopes of lifting a rather unfortunate curse that ends each day after just one minute. Minit is a collaboration between Kitty Calis, Jan Willem Nijman, Jukio Kallio & Dominik Johann.

100% Achiement Review:
My hours are inflated for this, but I had fun, even after losing my first save game.
The gist of the game is that its basically Zelda Majora's mask, but in the classic zelda style, where you are stuck in a time loop, but the time loops are only a minute long. This may not sound like a lot, but its one of those games where you start to master where things are and get more and more accomplished in the game.
For achievements, there are 100% collectible achievements for items, health power ups, and coins. You will get all the coins trying to get all the items, because you have to buy an item to get the last item.
When you beat the game there is great satisfaction... and then you find out its not over. Beating the game does not break you out of the time loop. There is a new game + where the game continues, from the beginning, except... You start the loop out with the sword that breaks at the end of the first loop, and now all of your time loops are only 40 seconds, You only have 1 health and collecting health pickups does nothing, AND to top it all off, some things moved around. You have the option to unlock a fast travel between your 4 checkpoint beds pretty early on in the base game, but in new game plus you have to play MOST of the game before you can find the item to fix the boat to get to the island with the teleporter. Exhausting, but challenging, and I felt fully fulfilled.
Until I realized there was one more achievement (technically two, because on my 2nd playthrough I accidentally killed the snake next to the aforementioned item, and you need to play the game through once without killing snakes). The last achievment, was to beat the game in under 25 turns.
Ok so, yeah, after you have mastered new game +, 25 turns is actually pretty easy to accomplish. Once you know the game like the back of your hand you can optimize your run. You actually can entirely skip the whole island area and unlocking the fast travel system because if you properly optimize your route you won't need that, and it saves a whole 2 runs.
Anyway. Difficult 100% but wholly satisfying.

Fantastic little game! Really keeps you on you engaged with it's unique minute run game loop. 9/10

Wanted a short adventure and got it, moderately mysterious, got stuck on a couple tasks, and overall I feels it has nice balance of exploration, quests, hidden extras & main campaign (there's NG+ for 100%, speed running and such, but I returned only to give bone to the dog).
D-pad and two button controls - makes it a cool arcade cabinet game. Got some tech issues of game running half-speed at first launch, and fighting ain't quite tight, but those issues were light, while the bare minimum of what should be in a complete game is working and leaves a good aftertaste.

In the game Minit you pick up a cursed sword that kills you every 60 seconds. You respawn with the tasks you completed remaining done but every quest requires you do in within a minute. Took me a couple hours to complete and was a nice little quirky adventure game that I found rather enjoyable and clever. The 60 second timer was useful in making me hyper focused on the game which was an interesting trick that Minit played on my gamer goblin brain.
Rating: 7/10

A charming and thoroughly enjoyable answer to the question "what if NES Zelda, but also Groundhog Day?"
