About 10 Minute Tower

With a little bit of imagination you can be anything… A mighty robot, a brave knight or even an adventurous astronaut.

10 Minute Tower is a unique tile-based puzzle game that will get your cogs whirring as you take control of a day-dreaming child adventurer trapped within a tower.
You begin your dream as a Mighty Robot, manipulating your environment and exploring to find new costumes and gain extra abilities. Each dream brings a new maze of puzzles to explore, but there’s not much time before you wake up…

Every room is a puzzle, filled with coins to collect and high scores to chase. Switch between characters on the fly to solve increasingly complex puzzles in make-believe worlds of adventure… and treasure! Use the Robot’s brute strength to push heavy blocks, swing the Knight’s sword to clear the way, and use the Astronaut’s gravity defying jumps to leap over blocked paths.

Basic box pushing puzzle game with charming graphics and a bit of a forced challange by introducing a timer. Very well polished but underwhelming in terms of originality of gameplay.

Unremarkable but fun casual puzzler. Buy it because you like casual puzzlers, charity or both.

I'm playing games in alphabetical order and you can watch my review here: https://youtu.be/zNs3dCCyng8 Prefer to read? This game can only be purchased as part of the HELP: THE GAME bundle, it can't be purchased standalone, but at least you'll know that some of your money will be going to a good cause: The War Child charity. 10 Minute Tower is a top-down roguelike puzzle game where you will attempt to solve as many rooms as possible that contain puzzles, mostly of the sliding block variety, by using the powers of the three different characters available. At the start of each 10 minute round you can only use the robot, but by exploring you will find the astronaut and the knight, each of which add a new ability to your puzzle solving arsenal. While the premise is neat, the combination of clunky controls, randomized rooms that result in a lot of repetition and the lack of any real sense of goal ultimately hamstring this otherwise cute title. If you picked this up as part of a bundle it's worth a play for one round, but not much more after that.

Unfortunately, this game is more frustrating than fun. On the one hand, solving puzzles can be a rewarding feeling, but the majority of the game is just annoying, especially with the music. There are no sound options, plus the controls can be non-responsive at times.
