Ive played my fair share of AAA tripe and paid £50+ for the privilege (NMS looking at you) for hundreds of hours of sameness..
As I have matured with games you come to realise the experince is what matters, no longer do I bother with COD or FIFA's but prefer the originality of Binding of Isaac's or Journey's, while at the same time they fit in with my family and work related lifestyle offering me a quick blast of fun with some emotional attachment for 30 minutes - 1 hour.
Sure you get great AAA games still, Bloodborne/DS, Zelda BOTW, Mario Galaxy etc.. but they are few and far between..
So do not complain for £1.20 it offers a small experince something you can hold onto and take with you, or you can go and play 'Generic Military FPS 7' and moan about these titles like entitled immature children, your choice.

Honestly, in a world of AAA map-mopping time sinks like Assassin's Creed and Witcher, short length is actually a selling point for me. And it is only £1.20.
Out today on Xbox one, this 'overwhelmingly positive' game on Steam, with plenty of 10/10 reviews is half price for the first 10 days of release on Xbox one.
It's £1.99 on steam and occasionally goes on sale sub £1, but for those with an Xbox One who want a short (approx 15 mins run through) but enjoyable experience, £1.20 seems like a good price.
Great for achievement hunters too with 10 to try and get. I'll post achievements in comments.

"Half an hour of uninterrupted quality playtime" are they joking?

And time flies when you're having fun, so hopefully this isn't fun!

It isn't either/or though. I don't always like particularly long games either, but there's short, and then there's this :smiley:.

Also, I imagine more time will be spent on this than most people have put into Assassin's Creed Unity after getting it for 75p...

What will the hour of play require me to do though?

£1.20 for a game that game that can be finished in 4 mins, do these game devs think we all have coupious amounts of spare time to waste....

To be fair, even free trials give you an hour of playtime!

But some amazing games are also the shortest... Proteus, for example. Gone Home is barely 90 minutes and that was critically acclaimed at £15 for ages, so £1.20 for ten minutes seems like a steal.

Took me about 30 mins, but I enjoyed it quite a bit. Game length is definitely not the only variable that matters when assessing a game. Quite enjoyable to, for once, not having to grind for anything and just play. Very relaxing game.
