What is 20 Minutes Till Dawn?
A survivor-type roguelite where you have to survive from enemies that constantly attack you for 20 minutes until dawn. Officially, there are at least 50 types of upgrades, and each character and weapon combination creates a different build. The biggest feature is that one play can be completed in 10 to 20 minutes, and the official says that it is ``perfect for busy gamers.'' One of the outstanding strengths of this system is that thanks to the short intervals, it is possible to repeat the experiment over and over again by saying, ``This time I will try this combination.'' There are over 29,000 Steam reviews and ``very positive'' reviews. Supports Japanese.
