    An entire JRPG trimmed down to the length of a single afternoon, The Longest Five Minutes brings a Memento-esque experience that plays around with the plays with the concept of time and the fallibility of our own memories.

    The characters and dialogue are good, but the game is a slog.

    It does, however, have one of the best trophy lists of all time. This game had a lot of cute little side quests to do for trophies. The list is attainable and rewarding, encouraging the user to explore every facet of the game.
