    20 Minutes Till Dawn is a fun and exciting horde survival game that offers a good variety of weapons and abilities to fight off massive swarms of enemies with. The varied upgrade system allows for a multitude of different builds to use in each run. While the game has relatively low content in terms of enemies to fight and environments to fight in, the game still has a good amount of content overall for its price.

    20 Minutes Till Dawn is an interesting action combat with a rogue-lite structure. The narrative elements are minimal, the presentation doesn’t impress but makes the combat easy to read, but the core gameplay loop is very satisfying. The variety of heroines also gives players a range of play styles, which get further boosted when mixing and matching level upgrades in new ways. The core gameplay loop is familiar and the game doesn’t innovate in big ways. I enjoyed the game most in short sessions, playing two or three runs at a time, enough to unlock new options and see what strategies I can build around them. 20 Minutes Till Dawn is satisfying for fans of the genre but I hope its creators take more risks with a potential sequel.
