The Digital Matrix Review: Half-Minute Hero

By Victor, on December 8th, 2009%

Half Minute Hero Cover Old school adventure games, what charm they have! You control a mass of blocky sprites that vaguely resemble a person, running around a flat world and beating up monsters to take their money, all in the name of getting stronger and saving the world from some evil overlord. Half-Minute Hero starts off just like this, as you march your ill-equipped hero right up to the king’s castle so he can give you the quest and a little advance pay. Well, that’s the idea, but as the king begins speaking, lightning bolts rip through the audience chamber, killing both of his aides! The final boss magically appears and announces he just cast a spell that will end the world in…30 seconds?! What!!?! That’s not even enough time to gain a single level, is it?!
