Much of the publicity for 12 Minutes so far has centred around it’s A-list cast. And it isn’t hard to see why; James McAvoy, Daisy Ridley, and Willem Dafoe are pretty big draws in Hollywood, and it stands to reason that their debut performances in a video game will cause a bit of a stir.
It’s also highly claustrophobic. The entire game seemingly takes place in a small, minimalist apartment; which for one reason or another is apparently stuck in a 12-minute time loop.
What this means in terms of gameplay is that you have 12 minutes to ‘solve’ the problem. If you don’t manage to do that, or if you perish during that time, you will return to the beginning of the loop. Although your character will retain his memories of how things went, which is vitally important.
At the time of writing this, I have failed to escape 12 Minutes‘ temporal prison, despite learning a great deal regarding what doesn’t work. Hell, I even managed to murder the murderous intruder… not that it did me any good in the long run. It did feel nice to beat him at his own game though.
Here’s how it was done. Best of luck to your own attempts escaping the loop!
