Now it has a sense of realism, in the bunker, you wouldn’t have the best radio connection and carrying a heavy vinyl player seems to be out of the question. The music isn’t as diverse as the graphics as the same song keeps on playing and this can get quite boring after a while. Even alterations to characters will have you feel bad for them, as they seem dirty, wounded or mutated. The 1950s are perfectly represented as everything is colorful and lively, such as it was back in the day. There isn’t much movement on the screen, as your interactions will be solely text-based decision making, yet each alteration to the shelter is nicely done and the graphics are truly lovely. When you are finally in your shelter and waiting out the apocalypse, this is in 2D.
During your exploration around the house and collecting items, the game is completely in 3D. The special aspect about 60 Seconds! is the mix of both 3D and hand-drawn 2D graphics. Therefore, there isn’t really a coherent story in 60 Seconds! but it will rather give you a unique path in each run. Each day will mean something else for life in the bunker, the ending could be the same, but the road is different each time. In the elaborate campaign, you have different scenarios to pit Ted and his family in, from a fully prepped shelter to the nuclear holocaust that reminds you of the Fallout franchise. The government has invested in a state-of-the-art alarm system that can detect a nuclear impact and will give civilians a minute to gather their stuff and run to their shelter. The game takes place in 1950s America where a nuclear threat is very real.
Now the game has finally been released for Xbox One and PlayStation 4 in a pretty nice way.
In 2015 we reviewed the original game for PC and last year we did the remastered version. The family in 60 Seconds! did so and it’s up to you to grab the essential items and make it on time to your cellar.
For this reason, many households invested in nuclear bunkers. The Cold War had many people on edge, especially Americans were afraid that the Chinese or Russians would have an all-out nuclear war and destroy the world as we know it.
