About
5 Minutes Until Self-Destruction is an escape room-style puzzle game where you're trapped on a spaceship moments from destruction. Think fast - or get blown to pieces.
The ship is filled with interconnected puzzles and minigames that test your logic, observation, and quick thinking.
Features:
- The entire game unfolds over a strict 5-minute timer
- Solve interconnected environmental puzzles to unlock new areas and ultimately defuse the self-destruction mechanism
- From the very start, the final goal is in plain sight
- Fast loading and restart times
- Completion timer for speed-runners
Can you outsmart the countdown before time runs out?
DISCLAIMER
It’s a short game by design, and the time-to-complete varies depending on how quickly you can think and act. Finishing on your first try in under five minutes is possible, but very difficult.

5 Minutes Until Self-Destruction throws you into a chaotic countdown where every move matters. Hack, dodge, and outsmart traps as the timer ticks closer to zero. Fast, intense, and addictive gameplay. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recommend this game. A thrilling race against time! 👉 Check it out here: https://youtu.be/JpMq43Kz_Ts
Cute idea, but 5 minutes was apparently not enough time for my brain to become useful. Some puzzles were fun, but others felt more tedious than clever, especially after a few failed attempts. Once I knew certain sections were coming, I was not excited to solve them. I never actually managed to escape, so either the game won or I discovered exactly how useless I would be in an emergency. Neat short game if you enjoy timed puzzle challenges, but definitely not for people who start panicking the moment a timer appears (I'm people).
A basic concept but tricky to conquer it. It was an enjoyable game but I did get frustrated with a couple of the puzzles that had no hint as to how you were supposed to manipulate them. Once I figured the nuances of each puzzle, it was a much more enjoyable game.
Super simple and short Escape room type of game - I enjoyed the gimmick and it was a fun time killer for the 20 minutes it lasted, so definitely worth the two bucks :3
good little game, fairly priced.
Short but very nice :3
"Best Time 4:48" Yeah I live on the edge and totally wasn't panicking and freaking out. A short escape room like game where you solve a couple puzzles that unlock other puzzles to eventually grant you freedom from destruction. Short and sweet, would love to see a more fleshed out version of this game.
Petit escape game sympa, pas trop compliqué, pas besoin d'un gros niveau en anglais, il m'a demandé un peu moins d'1h a terminer. Petite touxhe d'humour pendant les crédits, vaut largement son petit prix de 1,99€ Merci pour ma clef et félicitations au développeur 👏
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ awesome
Short but enjoyable stress-o-meter
