Blinx: The Time Sweeper (Platinum Hits) is an official modified release of Blinx: The Time Sweeper as part of the Platinum Family Hits series in 2003.

Artoon made a significant number of minor games tweaks including location, type and health of Time Monsters, capping clothing prices at 1000G and trash collected from the boss rush carrying over to the Chronohorn boss fight.

This version is popular with speedrunners and often reccomended for newcomers to the game.
