Dave writes: "We could complain about the flimsy gameplay, but we’d rather focus on what Minute of Islands does so well. It’s in those moments where you stumble on a whale graveyard, or colossal moray eels swaying in the currents. It’s how the climactic moments hit you like a tidal wave. It’s in the delicately constructed backdrops, which often look like a Where’s Wally re-sketched by David Cronenberg."
MonsterVine: "Minute of Islands is an incredibly stunning game with a timely narrative, minimal gameplay, and small platforming puzzles."
Minute of Islands desperately wants to be a deep and meaningful tale, but its lack of challenge doesn't manage to overcome its abundance of charm.
COG writes: Minute of Islands tells a simultaneously mythic and personal story of a young girl trying to repair a dying world.
