About the Game


“20 Mins ’til Dawn” plunges players into an exhilarating mobile gaming adventure, immersing them in a world teeming with menacing monsters. Your primary objective? Survive an adrenaline-pumping 20 minutes within the perilous confines of the game’s map. Your journey begins with the option to select from three distinct maps, each presenting its unique challenges and an array of adversaries to conquer.

To bolster your chances of survival before the break of dawn, you’ll have a diverse roster of 12 characters, each with unique abilities, talents, and character upgrades to fend off the relentless monster onslaught. Furthermore, you’re offered a choice of 8 distinct weapons, each with its own set of advantages and limitations. Some boast ample ammunition, deal significant damage, or fire rounds at breakneck speeds. Your choice of weapon can be the pivotal factor in your quest for survival.

Core Talents

Every time you advance to a new level, you’ll have the opportunity to choose from a selection of 5 talents that have been randomly generated. In total, there are 25 distinct talents, and each of these talents has three potential options that may be presented. Your choice at each level will determine the availability of the next tier of options for that particular talent in subsequent levels.

Your choice of these talents will be important because in order to gain access to the special synergy talents you will need to possess a combination of the core talents.

Character Specific Talents

To add in more customization each character has 3 talents that can be dropped by mini bosses that you encounter.

 

Tomes

There are another 6 talents called tombs. These are also dropped by the bosses that you will encounter. Your first encounter with one of these bosses will be when half of the time has passed.

 

Shop

Following each round, whether you reach the final stage or not, you will receive a currency known as “souls” as a reward. You can utilize these souls to purchase runes that enhance your damage-dealing capabilities or increase your survivability.
