Define "Five Minutes"

What exactly does it mean for a game to last more or less than five minutes? Should there be a strict limit on the gameplay time, or should it simply be that the average person can beat the game in under five minutes?

Hello, we’re looking for games that an average player can complete in under 5 minutes. We understand that not all players have the same skill level, so we expect that some games may go slightly over that time. To clarify: it is not necessary to include a timer or countdown.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for clarifying!
