Minit

A bit too expensive for how long you can play it. I 100%'d it in 4 hours.
However!
The game itself is really funny and cute, the characters are pretty memorable due to their funny voices and feel. Even though it's all in black and white, the areas are easily recognisable and nice to look at. The little puzzles are fun as well. Not to mention the music is pretty darn amazing and catchy.
Gameplay: 9/10
Music: 10/10
Visuals: 9/10
Price: 5/10
Totally recommend, just maybe wait till it goes on sale?

Its a nice, short game that you might play on your laptop during a vacation or on a road trip. If you're a completionist, you'll be happy to know that it can be 100%ed in like 3-4 hours.

When they told me that this game was only one minute long, I said "That's either impossible or the game is terrible."
Well there is egg all over my face now, huh? I was wrong on both counts.
Guess we all have a lot left to learn about the world.

An 8-bit-ish, Zelda-inspired, puzzle/adventure game where you die every 60 seconds and have to start over, but some things you do have an impact on the world that lasts between lives.

Minit is a game apparently simple but plenty of secrets, funny and addictive. It is a minimalist concept of adventure games, where you have 60 seconds of duration for each life. It is very well designed, with cute graphics similars to the old Zelda games, and with good soundtrack.
The bad things: some clues are hard to find and, mainly, the lenght of the game is too short (about 2 hours).
If you like the old fashion graphics and you're looking for a different adventure, it's a quite good option.
Recommended (specially with discount).

Zelda in 60 seconds chunks? Such a neat idea! The game is really short, but super sweet, so to me it was worth it.

Appropriately named, Minit is among the best throwbacks to the very first Zelda I've played, albeit with a twist of its own. One that annoyed me at first until I came to terms with its workings.
You get 60 seconds in each run after which you die and respawn at your Home. Befitting a well-designed it's not like the entire slate is wipe clean, though. You keep whatever progress you've made – be it finding that last annoying hotel resident hiding among the bandits or unlocking a camera. My comparison to Zelda was not an off-hand comment either seeing as Minit operates on basically identical formula with the distinction it's a lot more condensed because everything has to be within a minute's reach. With what few coins you find you can buy faster shoes to move around and you do unlock Home teleporters. Without a map you're left to rely on your own devices and memorizing what each screen contains. Contrary to the above I'd say neither combat or dungeons are the most vital elements here as it's more finding your way through the world.
You know story would be the first paragraph for me to tackle in reviews, but there really isn't much here. It's gradually unveiled that a local factory is up to no good and you almost accidentally end up involved in foiling their plans to manufacture swords. Characters with few lines stood out more for me than any overarching narrative. Possibly because I was clinging to their every word fearing obtuse hints to keep a watchful eye on, but at no point did I find myself lost.
Looking at screenshots you can clearly tell we're working with a monochromatic pixel presentation here and yet what it won't convey to you is effort that went into charmingly animating Minit. There's low fidelity appeal here you either like or can't stand on artistic principle. Now, this soundtrack is not above flexing. There's even a jukebox in the game that lets you listen to a rather impressive repertoire.
