![]() I found myself not wanting to put this down and complete it in one go, but I had to go back to it with a fresh head (having slept on it) to figure out my next move! But it was such an enjoyable journey. The only odd bit is sometimes if you zoom in on something the background can look a bit blocky and fuzzy, but that doesn’t impact the gameplay in any way. They’ve done a fantastic job – I cannot fault it and I feel they have been casted perfectly.Ĭonsidering the whole game takes place in a small, simple area, it is graphically beautiful. Every bit of dialogue is voiced and you won’t need to read anything or sit in silence. The narrative and storyline are brilliant and the voice acting is flawless. It does sometimes get frustrating, especially the further you progress as you have to go through the motions again and again, but you are able to forward repeated dialogue or sleep in the bed to forward time. I pray that no one ever looks up a guide of what to do and just enjoys the ride of working things out, as the satisfaction of progressing is great. You have that sense of pressure and urgency for having to gain the information you need as you only have that limited window of time. ![]() There’s a lot of trial and error, and if you’re like me there also a bit of doing things just to see what will happen and how much you can annoy your wife! Every bit of information you learn feels important and helps you adapt your actions after each loop. ![]() You can drag items from your inventory to interact with the environment or other characters. The game mechanics are point and click, where you control the cursor with the analogue stick and click to inspect on object, pick it up or move around the apartment. Your evening is interrupted by a police officer, voiced by the brilliant Willem Dafoe, who knocks on the door and accuses one of them of committing a crime. You control the male protagonist who lives with his wife. It’s played from a top-down perspective in a small apartment with a kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and closet. Time passes in real time and when your time is up (or you reach an impasse) it loops back to the beginning. Back when this was announced in E3 last year it completely peaked my interest, especially with voice acting from the likes of Daisy Ridley, James McAvoy and Willem Dafoe.įor those who don’t know, the premise of Twelve Minutes is of a man stuck in a time loop and it’s up to you to figure out why and how to get out of it. It came straight to Xbox Game Pass for everyone to enjoy. First off, I will try my best to make this review completely spoiler free as this is one of the most enjoyable titles I have played this year since Hitman 3 back in January and I’d recommend that everyone play with as little prior knowledge as possible.ĭeveloped by Luis Antonio and published by Annapuma Interactive, Twelve Minutes is a highly-anticipated, unique narrative adventure game.
