Boom! You wake up in a strange town with zero memory and a cast of characters that would make Salvador Dalà raise an eyebrow. Welcome to 3 Minutes to Midnight, the hilarious new graphic adventure that just exploded onto Xbox.
Developed and published by Scarecrow Studio, this offbeat adventure blends classic graphic adventure gameplay with a comedic narrative; one that’s as unpredictable as a caffeinated weasel in a china shop.
What’s going on in 3 Minutes to Midnight?
Amnesia? That’s the least of your worries. Explore a vibrant world filled with bizarre individuals, including a power-hungry mayor with a suspicious agenda, a potbelly pig seeking revenge, a sheriff convinced the supernatural is real, and a kraken who just wants to read the fine print (seriously!).
Oh, and did we mention the apocalypse? Yeah, there’s this tiny detail about the world ending. But hey, who needs memories when you’ve got a doomsday scenario to unravel?
3 Minutes to Midnight draws inspiration from classic graphic adventures while carving its own path with unique gameplay and a story that’s bursting with personality.
Prepare for an adventure that’s equal parts hilarious and mind-bending as a gallery of eccentrics come together, each more peculiar than the last. There will be puzzles too, twisting, turning, keeping you guessing, as some classic point-and-click graphic adventure gameplay takes hold. You know, like in Monkey Island – when point-and-clicks, clicked.
Ready to play?
3 Minutes to Midnight is available now on Xbox, downloadable through the Xbox Store for a price of £20.99. Pay up and you’ll be able to play on Xbox One or Xbox Series X|S. It’s got some Very Positive reviews on Steam, so this should be one to consider.
