7 itemsAbout the Game
5 Minutes Until Self-Destruction is an escape room-style puzzle game where you're trapped on a spaceship moments from destruction. Think fast - or get blown to pieces.
The ship is filled with interconnected puzzles and minigames that test your logic, observation, and quick thinking.
Features:
- The entire game unfolds over a strict 5-minute timer
- Solve interconnected environmental puzzles to unlock new areas and ultimately defuse the self-destruction mechanism
- From the very start, the final goal is in plain sight
- Fast loading and restart times
- Completion timer for speed-runners
Can you outsmart the countdown before time runs out?
DISCLAIMER
It’s a short game by design, and the time-to-complete varies depending on how quickly you can think and act. Finishing on your first try in under five minutes is possible, but very difficult.
