Minit is a tremendous adventure which, even within its short length, makes good use of its initially deceptively simple minute-long timer gimmick. It's wholesome world and delightful design is sure to create a dedicated fan-base, and for good reason. Simply put, its a good time, sixty seconds at a time.

Minit is a game in the purest sense of the word, harkening to a time when solid gameplay and genuine joy were the sole cornerstones of design philosophy.

Minit is a prototype rather than a videogame, since it shows how far the indie games can go. A title that uses time as a mechanic to deliver an amazing design lesson to the players.

The twist at the core of Minit, that you play it sixty seconds at a time, is initially intriguing and engaging, but ends up clashing with the puzzle and exploration-heavy gameplay in a way that left me feeling agitated rather than charmed by this nostalgia-driven indie title.

Minit is a curious concept that is well executed, even if the One-Minute mechanic might not be for everyone is a curious experiment that pays off in a lot of ways and definitely shouldn't work as well. For fans of the classic Zelda games, this one is worth checking out.

Minit is an adventure with a twist—an adventure that turns into work, and a twist that turns into as much of an anchor as any unfulfilling day job.

Minit is a tiny gem of an indie title, easy to overlook but not to be missed. It's overflowing with secrets to be found, mysteries to be solved, and adventures to be had 60 seconds at a time. The bite-sized nature only adds to the charms and addictive nature of this 1-bit action-adventure game. With the small price tag of $9.99, it's more than worth a minute of your time.

Minit is a well-designed title which could be a little bit longer.

A smart, witty adventure that makes a virtue of its self-imposed constraints.

Minit takes an interesting approach with it's one minute timelimit but doesnt do much interesting stuff with it. In the end most aspects of the game suffer from that mechanic and the game collapses on it's own unique mechanic.

Minit is a game you play in shorts games of a minute that you'd like to play for hours.

It's a cute concept that will keep you enthralled for well more than 60 seconds.

Minit basic gameplay premises are super simple, but in many ways, it is super sophisticated in the way that its design had to be thought to work in an instance that was challenging but still fair and pleasant enough to convince the player of its proposal. I loved the premise, the jokes, the secrets, the fantastic soundtrack and pretty much everything that constituted this little adventure.

Minit manages to capture the nostalgic feeling of older games and some of its features are certainly fun. However outdated design choices may make it difficult to enjoy for modern gamers. This is the title to approach if you are willing to relive the memories of the past.

It's very charming, a lot of fun, and perhaps most importantly, executes its central conceit with deftness.

Minit's conceit is so simple and so straightforward, I thought I'd tire of it immediately. But I was dead wrong. What starts a little slow (and a bit frustrating) quickly turns into a fast-paced and rewarding experience that borrows as much from Super Meat Boy's unrelenting speed as it does from early 2D Zelda's gameplay.
