Minute of Islands Reviewed by Cyril Lachel on . I think it's fair to say that Minute of Islands will not be for everybody. This is not a light-hearted 2D platformer about island hopping, but rather an introspective examination of a girl who is definitely going through something traumatic. The visuals, although gorgeously drawn and bursting with personality, are morose and filled with despair. The art style perfectly matches the complicated emotions conveyed through the well-written narration and deliberately paced quest. The only downside is that the puzzles and gameplay tend to take a backseat to the story, which ends up being the main reason to set sail on this devastating adventure. It may be slow, repetitive and a little depressing, but Minute of Islands is the kind of game that will stick with you for years to come. Rating: 85%
