Three Minutes To Eight And Your Inevitable Death?

From Chaosmonger Studio (ENCODYA) and Assemble Entertainment (Fall of Porcupine) comes Three Minutes To Eight – a ‘mind-bending and deliciously cryptic side-scrolling adventure’ heading to PC, consoles and mobile later this year.

The premise is a very interesting one: you know the exact time you’re going to die, 07:57 PM, and unfortunately, that might be this evening unless you’re able to cheat death and unlock the multiple endings in this intriguing adventure.

Each run in Three Minutes To Eight is unique as you unlock secret paths, uncover hidden mysteries, and find yourself at the centre of an ever-evolving game experience. Key features include:

• A mind-boggling narrative with unexpected twists where you must uncover ways to cheat death…or die trying
• Unique short-burst gameplay allows for infinite replayability with multiple different endings to unlock and hidden mysteries in each playthrough 
• Highly stylized pixel art graphics and a cyberpunk aesthetic support the game’s themes dealing with a mental state teetering on the edge of consciousness 
• Intriguing dialogue with a roster of interesting NPCs deepens the game’s gripping narrative.

Here’s an early look trailer:

Three Minutes To Eight is releasing in Q4 2023 on PC, consoles and mobile devices. A Steam page link is below.
