Sometimes a UFO lands on consoles after a brief stopover in the Steam universe. We do not know why because this kind of titles is not often adapted to the public consoles, we do not know how, but it arrives. Very often it is a very nice surprise of fun and concentrated originality that only revolves around a gimmick. The latest one was Untitled Goose Game and now it's 60 Seconds! to pretend to this fun and stupid playing position. But will he get there? Answer in this short test.
Once is not customary, I will completely screw up the suspense from the start of this short test, since the answer is no. But that doesn't mean the game isn't cool and it's not worth it. Just that the game isn't strong enough to be a strong Must Have contender and I'll skip the rest of this short article to tell you why.
The most discerning among you will have detected the reason absolutely not subliminally slipped on several occasions: the game is SHORT. Very short. And the replayability is not really satisfying given that the events in the bunker, although random, play out the same way and only those with which you have a choice to make will be able to really influence the course of the game. This could possibly pass if the game was active, which is not really the case outside of the 60 seconds of collecting items and family members to put in the bunker. Because after the collection, the rest is only reading the daily chapter of the logbook, distribution of rations and possible choices in case of outings or one-off events by pressing the corresponding button. Nothing else. We are not even entitled to small funny animations. Already in the part where we control a character at the beginning of the game before the explosion of the bomb would have deserved a little more fluid animations and which make less video game on Playstation 1 ...
This limits the will to play and replay it over and over again. So certainly one, or even two games from time to time are greeted with a smile to fill 20-30 minutes of total boredom because the game is quite nice, but its technical limits as well as its lazy secondary game modes (one just for the part collecting and a fair on the bunker part with random items) are not really going to encourage a frenzy of non-stop play and endless fun. It is very cruel and especially a pity because the concept was frankly nice, but this "UFOIdéoludique" will probably not break into the world of small fun games because of its lack of ambition, poor gameplay and sound. lack of variety in daily actions, events and consequences of these events ... Even internal game challenges that make you gain aesthetic elements have little point in achieving.
