Earlier this year, the interactive thriller Twelve Minutes arrived on the Xbox. Months on, the title by Annapurna Interactive and Luis Antonio is now making its way across to various other platforms including the Nintendo Switch on 7th December.
This game is a "real-time top-down" title featuring an accessible click and drag interface. It also includes voice work from James McAvoy, Daisy Ridley and Willem Dafoe. Here's a brief rundown about the loop you'll have to solve:
What should be a romantic evening with your wife turns into a nightmare when a police detective breaks into your home, accuses your wife of murder and beats you to death…
Only for you to find yourself immediately returned to the exact moment you opened the front door, stuck in a 12-minute time loop, doomed to relive the same terror again and again…
Unless you can find a way to use the knowledge of what’s coming to change the outcome and break the loop.

Wait a minute drum riff, this game seems real creative, but what would the sequel to this game be called?
Thirteen Minutes?
Thirteen Reasons Why
Eleven Minutes?
Twelve Seconds,
Twelve Hours,
Twelve Days,
Twelve Years?
Or just Twelve Minutes 2?
Great news, will be picking this up along with Death Door. A nice drop of high quality ports landing on Switch as of late, hopefully 12 Minutes ports well onto the Switch. Might be prudent to see if these go on sale over the holidays
I had an absolute blast with this on Gamepass. If you haven't had a chance to enjoy this yet I would highly recommend. Very interesting mystery and a super duper cast.
@HotGoomba why did you put 13 reasons why on there?
Speaking of 13 Reasons Why, I just finished the book
@anoyonmus Literally no reason other than the fact that when I was typing "Thirteen Minutes", it reminded me of the Netflix show.
Sadly is a really bad game, really awkward to play even for a graphic adventure and the story is all over the place.
all I've heard is half the twists are contrived or questionable so "Hooray"!
I like how indie games can now get fairly notable actors like indie movies can. But despite a cool premise, I've heard...things about this game.
It sure did try to do something with its story.
12 minutes of young Professor X, Rey Palpatine, and Green Goblin? Heck yeah, I'll check it out.
I'm glad more people will get the chance to play this.
This has intrigued me, as most annapurna games do. Definitely giving it a go.
Better be the best twelve minutes there are.
Sounds disturbing
The ending oh God no please help I thought
I escaped.hes back
@Zucaritas you so funny
@Zucaritas yeah THAT twist at the end was just eugh man, if you know you know unfortunately
@Dragwhite Enjoyed it till that... Do need to go back and clean up achievements though.
Digital only?
@Beermonkey yeah i was gonna say the game was great up until that part, gameplay was interesting, just the ending really put me off
Really didn't enjoy this when I played through earlier this year - it's not just that the story is whack and only Willem Dafoe is any good performance wise, but the puzzle gameplay side is pretty dire too.
This game was recommended to me by, of all people, the 13-year-old refugee kid I help out with his math homework.
Does sounds very interesting. :3
Played it earlier in the year on game pass. It's a cool premise that's unfortunately clunky as all hell, with some huge logical leaps in the gameplay and story. I'd recommend watching a playthrough over actually playing it, unless you fancy frustrating trial and error gameplay.
@HotGoomba 28 minutes later.
Yeah this is my least favourite game I’ve ever played. I’ve played some real stinkers but I think I’d rather replay Night at the Museum 2 on DS.
@OldPierre77 You haven’t even got to the worst bit. That whole sequence is absolutely horrible and yeah, fails in actually condemning the actions. But it gets worse. Way worse.
Played the Xbox version and it's really good!
