Minimetroidvania 4 is, as its name suggests, a small metroidvania fangame. As other reviews have pointed out, despite the map size being small, there is a lot of content here. There are quite a lot of abilities which are all unique instead of your typical triple jump. For each ability there is a trial testing your skills on a unique gimmick. These trials are gameplay wise some of the most memorable parts of the game. I especially loved the cursor water trial, the rocket trial, and the split trial.
My biggest issue with the game is the infamous clock puzzle. You can read Canus’ review to see why it has a big problem. Unfortunately I was quite frustrated with it so everything after it felt less enjoyable than everything before it. Thankfully there wasn’t much left after it. I also didn’t really enjoy the bosses that much. Most of them were okay, but some of them were annoying.
Overall this game is really fun if you can get past some issues, and even though the map is small, every room was made for a good reason, and there’s no fillers in this game.

This game is generally not too challenging, except for the final bosses. The last two bosses rely somewhat on RNG, which can be frustrating. Final Boss is the most difficult part of the game, often limiting your move and requiring careful movement planning. The penultimate boss limits your jumping, and the third boss involves fighting against five-colored sprites, which I find to be the fairest and most challenging part of the game. If it weren’t for the FB, I would have rated it higher. I don't particularly recommend it unless you are attempting the K3 challenge.

Good classic fangame
Needle wasn't memorable and the age shows. That difficulty spike when you become Outline Kid was a rough one especially in the last two screens.
Real highlight of the game is the IA Avoidance. It was fun to do aside from the RNG of Grey Bounces and Hearts. Latter was a pain to deal with on top of being on a safe spot pattern.
