  • Novel time concept
  • Entertaining plot
  • Good variety of gameplay styles
  • Great 8bit presentation.

The editors didn't like

  • Graphics
  • Simple Game mechanics
  • No replay value
  • Repetitive objectives
  • Bosses are too easy
  • Some minor slowdown.
  • You have to unlock Knight 30

  • Abstract:  It sounds like the game would be really short no? 30 seconds and it’s win or lose. But Rising Star, Marvelous and XSeed have cleverly put in multiple levels each which you have only thirty seconds to solve. You are able to do things like rewind time so...

  • Abstract:  For Half-Minute Hero I wanted to try and write a review in 30 seconds. But I'm a pretty slow typist, so it would have ended right about.... But I couldn't possibly explain the quirky charm of this novel take on overdone JRPG formula in such a short amo...

  Published: 2009-11-06, review by: gamervision.com

  • Abstract:  There’s a lot to make fun of when it comes to RPGs. Many developers don’t seem to care that they’ve been recycling the same stories over and over again for years, and neither do a lot of fans. Instead, there’s this strange movement where retro styling ...

  Published: 2009-10-29, review by: destructoid.com

  • Abstract:  Roleplaying games are dramatic, lengthy affairs in which most players could reasonably expect to lose up to eighty hours of their time. Half-Minute Hero exists to tell you just how much you're wasting your own precious and fragile life, as it reduces ...

  Published: 2009-10-28, review by: gaming-age.com

  • Abstract:  Half-Minute Hero is a strange beast of an RPG, something that's certainly unique in a tidal wave of sameness that tends to pour out of Japanese RPG's as of late. It's not without a few faults, but the core gameplay of the Hero 30 mode included here, wh...

  Published: 2009-10-15, Author: Shiva , review by: cnet.com

  • Abstract:  While traditional role-playing games have their perks, they're often loaded with hours of tedious grinding and dozens of melodramatic cutscenes that take as long to watch as they do to unlock. Half-Minute Hero eschews all that in favor of fast-paced a...

  Published: 2009-10-13, review by: cheatcc.com

  • Abstract:  Despite the title, Half-Minute Hero is a full-length game that is anything but short or half-baked. Take a classic, old-school RPG and trim the fat and inject some extra genres and you`ve got this lean, mean, action machine. It`s everything that you li...

  • Abstract:  When I began reviewing Half-Minute Hero, I tried to describe it to some of the other GamePro editors and failed miserably. The description usually went something like this: "It's an RPG, but it's not long. Well, it is long, but you only have thirty sec...
