Minit Fun Racer is a super simple endless runner where you collect coins and race against the clock, but it has a wonderful upgrade system that makes for a great gameplay loop. The core game of minute one of the game versus minute 120 is the same, but the game feels completely different than it started. If you like games like Ridiculous Fishing, you're gonna have a good time with Minit Fun Racer.

Right upfront, the reason to buy this game is to donate to charity. The devs have mentioned on Twitter that the first charities will be Doctor’s Without Borders and Special Effect. Think of it as a donation where you also end up getting a game. Now that that’s out of the way, I can say Minit Fun Racer is a pretty solid game even standing on its own.

As the title suggests, Minit Fun Racer is indeed a rather fun (if a bit too short) racer, with the gameplay loop of race, upgrade, race further, which is pretty easy to get sucked into until you buy out the entire shop, plus there's also a bunch of challenges if you're into that. The game takes about 20 minutes to beat, though you could get another 30-60 minutes out of it just trying to complete all the challenges. …

tl:dr: The game is definetely worth your time and money, especially since all proceeds go to charity. Minit Fun Racer A simple but addicting racer with the beloved Minit characters. The upgrade and goal systems are fun and the gameplay loop is rewarding: The more upgrades you can afford, the more goals become attainable. The goals are an incentive to play, but also a money source (at least in the early game). Style …

Our peculiar protagonist is back--only now faster and flashier than ever. When I saw there was a new game in the franchise AND that proceeds go to charity, I had to grab this game instantly. I'm sure that I will enjoy every Minit. :)

neutral · AI labelView post →Simplistic and un-fun with nothing in the way of proper hit detection. What's more, an honest question in the forum about transparency regarding the charities they plan to donate to resulted in the fastest ban I've ever faced in on online forum. There's something game developers need to understand about me if they're to earn my business. Don't feed me the woke nonsense. If you do, and especially if it turns out to be punitive, I will probably make you regret it with the stroke of a pen. I…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not recommended for people prone to headaches. For everyone else, sure. A person would need to be incredibly petty and critical to find fault with a game that is clearly made with love, where all proceeds go to charity. Luckily, I am one such person. First, the headline: This game scrolls from left-to-right at a pretty constant rate. If you play this game for more than ten minutes at a stretch, you'll notice that your field of view seems to continue warping leftward for a few minutes after…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A cute arcade racing roguelite in the vein of Excitebike and Paperboy. Not spectacular since in this genre the lack of colors severely impairs gameplay, but still a perfectly okay, above average browser game essentially. I bought it just to trick my friends into thinking that I'm a decent person anyway.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Gameplay is very boring ...and not worhy at all..but if you are a kind human being you can buy multiple tiers and donate to charity as 100 % of your money goes to helping people !
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →My Playtime: 2.7h (100% achievement, finished the game several times) My First Playthrough: 16 minutes Grindy Achievement(s): No. Optional Achievement(s): Yes (~27 achievements). Difficult Achievement(s): No. Intro Minit Fun Racer is a racing game where you have to drive a car to reach the goal. It has a little bit of roguelite element where you keep your gold after you die, allowing you to buy upgrades and finish the game. Pros: - Accessibility options to lower the difficulty - Upgrades to…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Don the duckish mouthparts of Minitman once again (and if you're doing it for the first time, go pick up Minit now) as he straddles his moped and embarks on the kind of vehicular misadventure that plagues many of us daily -- but which, in this absurd and upbeat Krazy Kat reinterpretation, becomes a perfect vehicle for gaming's simpler joys. Collect the coins, pimp your ride, go the distance, polish your skills, lean into the thrills, and discover that, in the end, it's the small things that…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game gives me a headache. The pace the game scrolls feels blurry to me (and I have a high hz monitor). In addition to that, the game is black and white and has a lot of randomly scattered objects constantly scrolling, it feels like the eyes has nowhere to rest so it really straining for me. If that's not a problem for you; it's a decent game and it's for charity so in that aspect it's good. But I cannot personally recommend this game or enjoy it. I will change the review to positive if…

neutral · AI labelView post →Alright. Minit Fun Racer is done and dusted. It was...well...fun. :) If you've ever played Minit, you play as what seems like the same character and the graphics are consistent between the two games. If you haven't played Minit, you should. It's got a cool concept. Anyway, in this game, your goal is to reach a vacation spot at the end of the worst traffic dense roads alongside the worst road maintenance and traffic control you will ever encounter, lol. It is an obstacle course racing game…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While not as compelling as the original Minit, Minit Fun Racer is still a cool little incentive to donating to charity. Definitely a good cause.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Minit Fun Racer is the kind of game which I would love to have on every platform. It has the aura of something done with care and love, while remaining simple, minimalistic and, maybe most importantly, fun as hell. You can defy yourself by going for all the achievements or just play some casual racing while enjoying some of the cool gimmicks (pizza delivering, police chasing...) the game is charged with. Great experience made even better when knowing where your money went to after buying the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Crowning achievement of human artistic expression. Minit Fun Racer carries within itself oceans of meaning, far too much to be discussed in this simple Steam review. But consider: see how the soundtrack draws subtle influences from Vivaldi's Four Seasons ? How its graphics are a natural progression of Michelangelo's work in the Sistine Chapel? Not to mention the riveting story, full of pointed allegories, yet strangely esoteric at the same time. It solemnly speaks of the struggles of the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Little cute race game + all the money goes to charity :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Selfishly, I bought this primarily because I presumed it would be some solid entertainment for a bit. "Fun" is right in the title, afterall! Knowing I supported charity in the process is a great aftereffect, though. I've definitely purchased far, far worse under that pretense (to be fair, it's hard to feel bad about supporting charity). With that said, this is a review of the game itself rather than the fact it's for a good cause. Thankfully, it's not just for a good cause, but a good game!…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Little cute race game Made me happy and I think that its the best thing a game can do
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Short, inexpensive, goofy fun that I honestly can't complain about. I wish I knew what charity/charities they're supporting with this title though. It's a bit vague just saying "All proceeds go to charity" Oh well
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I tried playing Minit Fun Racer myself. I thought I had beaten this game, but my memories of the ending were from a speedrun. It turns out my poor vision blurs all the vehicles even though they are technically all parked, so I can't tell what pixels are actually hitboxes or not.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not really a racer, since you don't have anyone to race against. More like a personal time trial. Collect coins to earn upgrades to drive faster and save time! Fun and supports charity! Around ~4 hours to 100% for slow folks like me. :D
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Awesome mini(t)game, great fun. It's very cleverly designed with a gradual progression, feels very natural and not in the least grindy. 1h played and I have unlocked about 50% of the goals / achievements. I feel I can play it for longer without getting repetitive, as it has a certain challenge to it. Incredibly polished and lovingly crafted. Interesting what can be done with the "minit-mechanic". I'm looking forward to more games in the minit franchise <3 All money goes to charity. Choose…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I liked minit, I liked this game, all proceeds go to charity. What more do you want?
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun little game with a lot of replay value. Only issue is that it's sometimes hard to tell if you're in the hitbox for an incoming obstacle, but restarting is fast enough that it's not a problem.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →4) Minit Fun Racer A roguelike, racing game? With a hard time limit? It’s a weird concept, but if you’ve played Minit - a Zelda roguelike with a hard time limit - you can get how this one would work. It’s a nice little game that doesn’t demand a ton from the player other than light perseverance.
positive · AI labelView post →Minit Fun Racer is a fun little 2D Racing game about dodging obstacles and getting to the end of course in a time limit. You can buy upgrades to make your journey easier and also try to collect the game's unique achievements along the way. Also, apparently 100% of profits go to charity, which is cool. If you like Minit, Fun or Racing, you should give it a try!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Minit Fun Racer is a handheld (Nintendo Switch)/console game that's also been put on Steam as a bit of an afterthought, as it's very much designed for the handheld/console gaming audience. Minit Fun Racer is yet another of several hundred, if not thousands of garbage low effort endless runners plaguing Steam. Like all endless/autorunners, you're moving and you can't stop. All you can do is avoid the obstacles coming at you in this incredibly shallow shovelware game. This amateur mess is…

neutral · AI labelView post →The hit detection is way to precise and unintuitive and the whole black and white color scheme doesn't help it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What a throwback to the 80's, I can well imagine an 8year old me playing this on the trusty spectrum 128k +2. When the helmet is upgraded, 3 lives to complete the loops and thats the lot, fail and its back to the start! thats some old school difficulty. The hot seat multiplayer is what elevates this to GOTY level. if you know, you know ;)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Devs, I'm gonna be honest with you, I bought this game because the unnoficial PS Vita port. With that aside, I can confidently recommend this game, lovely gameplay and pixel art (plus, they'll give money to charity!).
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Minit Fun Racer is a dank little 'race against the clock' game and a terrific value at any price (since the proceeds go to various charities chosen by the dev team such as 'Doctors Without Borders). The gameplay is simple and addictive - you'll be hard-pressed to avoid going for 'one more run' to best your previous distance. The game progressively helps you out in this pursuit as you can use in-game currency earned to buy upgrades before each run (allowing more hits, boosting speed and…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →https://youtu.be/K0k6Gv8G9mA Overall a small size experience but it packs a lot of run based fun into that tiny package. Plenty of unlocks offer smooth progression of play while maintaining the artistic charm of the original.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Rating: ★★★★ - Great Time Played: 0.7 hours Gameplay: • A fast-paced, pick-up-and-play arcade game requiring precision and fast reflexes. • Simple controls make it accessible, while timed runs keep it engaging and challenging. • The minute-long gameplay loop is highly replayable, the shop keeping you engaged with new abilities each playthrough. Story\Dialogue: • Focus is firmly on gameplay, with story taking a backseat. Graphics\Music: • Clean, charming black and white pixel art with a…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Beaked humanoid rides scooter through obstacle course in monochrome endless runner Playing this I felt like a kid in the 80s. Despite the name it is more of an obstacle course than a racing game. The gameplay changes a lot as you unlock persistent upgrades and there are enough of them for about 2 hours of retro fun.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Minit Fun Racer is a cute little racing game with just barely enough content and progression to keep you busy for a bit. It's not going to change your life, but the profits go to charity so it's win/win for everyone if you try it. Game play is very limited but reminiscent of the old 8 bit NES Excitebike, move out of the way of obstacles and race the clock. Earn a few coins, buy a few upgrades, rinse repeat. I'll give this one a decent recommendation, if you are willing to go in with the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A simple, charming and fun little racer you can pick up and play whenever you have a few free minutes. The monochrome pixel art aesthetic is clean and visually appealing despite its limitations. The controls are simple and responsive, but it does take a while to learn the game's hit boxes as your car zips around quite quickly and it's sometimes hard to line yourself up between obstacles. It's called a "racer", but you aren't actually racing against any opponents. Rather, it's essentially an…

This game had me smiling the WHOLE entire time as you race to increase time by collecting coins or bouncing off trash cans and reaching the very end of the trip. The upgrade shop was a nice little addition as the upgrades made it even more adventurous. I am not a completionist in any means, but there are achievements out there for the people that love to get achievements that are tricky and…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun game your likely only going to play for one sitting then never again, can't complain too much though as the price is more than reasonable and all the profits go to charity which is neat. Overall, great way to spend an hour or so, as long as you don't go in expecting anything too mental.
