Incredible visuals, exceptional color work, atmospheric and very immersive music, and a game full of talent with an emotional finale. It left a deep impact on me.

Only made it past chapter 2 before I got tired with it. It is very slow.

I understand having slow moments in a story, I understand wanting the player to linger on an emotion. But forcing the character to stand still, rather than letting the player decide o do so themselves to take it in is NOT the way to do it.

When your game has no gameplay, basically no puzzle aspect, nothing to engage the player other than some decent visuals here and there and the story, then I want to progres the story.

Frankly I dont understand why the creator didnt make an animated short, or a comic, instead of this game. Everything is so on rails, no decisions can be made, no doing things out of order, no benefit gained from collecting memories and no secrets to explore as all the "hidden" areas are pointed out with glowing little white lines.

In short when the only thing this game has of any value is the artstyle and the vibes, this would have fared much better as an animation as instead it comes across as a game that does NOT respect the players time.

Minute of Islands is a different take on post-apocalyptic games. Instead of presenting way to survive or change the world around us Minute of Islands tries to focus on how we can move forward and live within a dying world. While I think there were tedious sections of the game, the slower pace and somber atmosphere gave way to a beautiful experience. The story and themes may not be the clearest but I think if you stop and give this game a chance you will see something beautiful, if only for a minute.
