It certainly needs the time, but doesn’t always feel like it is earned. There were times where the story dragged on a bit in between game-play moments. We get a lot of flashbacks and narrative moments that give us insight into her dark life. I won’t go into spoilers too much as the narrative is pretty key to what the game has to offer, but basically Mo’s role as a hero is a lonely one. Mo then journeys out to get these air purifiers working again to save her island. It turns out giants usually make the air filters work on the island but they have mysteriously stopped doing their job. Minute of Islands has Mo waking and going up to the surface on her island to find the place is filled with a toxin as the island decays. This immediately led me into thinking the game would be a nice chill adventure. It has that weird Adventure Time design style but with a totally unique looking world. The first thing you will notice is the absolutely cracking art style and animation. Minute of Islands was not what I expected. A game like Spec Ops The Line was an early example where you thought you were in for a dumb generic shooter but that ending changed your whole experience. You are a hero, you do hero things, and overcoming everything in your way is totally fine no matter what you do. Most of the time they hit the same beats. I love it when a game subverts your expectations.
