Minutes of Islands is truly an impressive game, both visually and narratively. While its slow-burn nature might deter some players from experiencing what it has to offer, it's hard not to admit that it does what it does well.

80%Minute of Islands (Nintendo Switch)
What Minute of Islands lacks in gameplay, it makes up for with it’s beautiful world and in-depth story telling. If you want a fast-paced, action-packed adventure, Minute of Islands is a game you’ll want to skip. But for those who want a more relaxing, narrative-based game, I highly recommend checking it out.
80%Minute of Islands Review – Somewhere, beyond the sea
Studio Fizbin have crafted a wonderful experience that achieves exactly what it sets out to do. It’s set in an intriguing world and tells an emotional story that explores a specific type of sadness, and how it affects relationships between loved ones. I can’t remember the last time a game affected me so much that I yelled at my screen due to something a character said. Despite my pedantry, I had a brilliant time with Minute of Islands and look forward to playing it again some day.
