Minit is super charming and stands out in writing and presentation. It manages to do a lot with very little visual presentation and includes lots of fun to discover secrets and extras just below the surface.
I'm more surprised than anything that I didn't mind retreading my steps so many times. The titular countdown was a fun limiter! It encouraged me to mentally map out the space, move deliberately and it never inhibited my enjoyment. It's through this that I can recognize the great world design.
I don't think I'll be taking the time to explore the world much past rolling credits, as the time limit curbs that. I also wish that since beating the game, the 'Continue' option sent me prior to the final boss encounter with everything I'd collected!
Minit is a great game and everyone should give it a shot.
