In Sound Mind

I got bored less than halfway through because the characters didn't feel compelling to me, and the game feels drawn out. Scares are mostly done through cheap jump scares.

Ok I didn't hate the game, but I'm giving it a down vote because it wasn't really that interesting and I was glad I finished it but not in a good way. The story is ok, but it wants to be insightful and it just isn't. It talks about mental illness in a very video game logic sort of way, defeat these enemies and you will be fine, nothing real deep, even your main characters own reveal feels very shallow. Game play wise it's just meh, nothing exciting. I was expecting more survival horror than what it actually is, which is mostly just exploring, killing enemies, and running from enemies you can't kill. You get pills through out the game that boost stats, one of those is stealth, but I couldn't for the life of me tell you what the actual stealth mechanics of this game are. Enemies can spot you very easy, shadows don't seem to hide you, even hiding in bushes doesn't always work the way you would expect. Most encounters with enemies result in you shooting at enemies, not sneaking around them. Boss battles are ok, there's some inventive ideas, but the final boss battle isn't that interesting. You defeat the final boss by playing tapes while being chased around by enemies. It's not great. Your two main weapons being a pistol and a shotgun are pretty standard, pistol is decent. but the shotgun isn't particulary great. Most of the rest of your equipment is used to solve puzzles like a mirror shard which has the dual purpose of seeing hidden things and breaking objects (it's kinda weird that of all the items they give me to break stuff it's a chunk of mirror). There's a bunch of other equipment which often serves the purposes of either puzzle solving or as a weapon, but normally isn't really great at actually being weapons. I did like the puzzles, they are all nice and logical, and finding all the items in the game is fun, for me actually was the funnest part of the game was treasure hunting. While the boss enemies offer some interesting variety, there are only two common enemies you encounter in the game, so there's nothing exciting about enemy encounters. Overall though I just feel the game was kinda shallow with its ideas around mental illness. There's nothing really interesting about enemies or game play other than some of the puzzle solving ideas. I'm sure some people will love this game, but it just wasn't for me. Also for as much as people talk about the sound track, it really isn't that good, unless you're really into poppy indy rock.

really great game. I am more excited for the next game. The music is way too good. 10/10 Would definitely recommend it.

Absolute masterpiece of a game and the first game to get all the achievements, for me. Getting the achievements was so fun, can recommend playing.

Very exciting, great mechanics, very spooky without relying on jump scares. Tons of creativity. A great game if you like puzzles, exciting action, and storytelling.

Wow. Just wow. This is by far the very best game I have ever played. The immersive story line, the beautiful soundtrack, the high-quality voice acting, the gorgeous graphics, and the immense amount of attention to the most minute details that many players may miss just adds all together to form the very greatest representation of a story game I have ever experienced. Never have I taken in any kind of media that made me as interested and enraptured in the story as this game has. This game deserves every award and title I could think of. The only complaint that I have with the game is that I didn't find it any sooner, as this absolute gem was hidden behind the steam algorithm for so long. It is very low-priced considering the amount of care that I can easily see went into developing this game. It saddens me that there will not be a part two to this beauty of a story line, and I know no review I can write will do justice to the glory that this game deserves. 10/10, 5 stars, and 100% would recommend to anyone who stumbles upon this game. Please, for the love of god, experience this game. I cannot recommend it enough.

A brilliant game, every time I felt like "This game can't do that," it did, it's a masterful piece of art that is a perfect example that with a keen direction and with everyone on the same page, gaming can still surprise you. I love this game dearly, and highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys Survival Horror.

Story 10/10 Sound Tracks 10/10 Cat 10/10 Have i played this more than once?, Yup Over all it's a great game.

This is a TOP TIER HORROR GAME! Probably one of my favs! Amazing stuff! Banger soundtrack! Awesome story! Great characters! Fun gameplay! IT'S ALL THERE!

I'm a big fan of The Living Tombstone and saw that they made the soundtrack of this game, so I played it. This game is absolutely beautiful in so many ways and I cannot recommend this game enough. I'll start off with the soundtrack. Oh my god is it so damn well made, it fits the games theming so well and it is definitely worth listening to again. The visuals and overall aesthetic of the game are so cool, I love the creativity and you can tell this game was made with passion and love. I also really loved the puzzles this game has to offer. It's the perfect difficulty and if you ever do get stuck you have hints which I really appreciate. And oh my god..the story. It is so well crafted that I just NEED you to play this game for yourself, the character writing is so well done and it really makes you sympathise with the characters. Oh and i can't forget the horror element this game has. I LOVE the way this game handles it, It doesn't take itself too serious with the horror, but the jump scares are so well placed that I just never expect them which is something that lacks in modern horror. Lastly I just want to say that the pacing of the game is actually really damn good, it never felt dragged out and the game's areas are always fun to explore. The only complaint that I have is that the game ran a bit poorly on my laptop, but it was still playable. So please, give this game a shot. In Sound Mind is just one of those games that you don't get to experience a lot. (soundtrack spoilers) The vinyl's songs are beyond beautiful, each one tells the story of the patients struggles so well. I genuinely cried hearing the instrumental versions of these songs in the game's credits, it's just perfect.

This was quite a memorable game. I don't know if I would recommend it to someone, but I will never forget it. Here's the video of me playing it: https://youtu.be/wz6lqaUxq6w

In Sound Mind is a really cool game. It's tagged as horror, but it's only scary for part of the game. This game has really cool and unique gameplay and bossfights. The regular gunplay and lower level enemies are mediocre at best and irritating at worst, but the other tools the game gives you make up for that. And the bossfights really are extremely cool, and are by far the best part of the game. The story is decent. The overarching story is less interesting than the individual stories that are presented to you in each episode of the game. The settings are different for each episode and I actually really liked the variety: a grocery store, a beach and lighthouse, an industrial park, and a forest. I really like games that provide a variety of locations to explore. Overall it's a very cool game with unique gameplay, some scares (although I really don't know if I consider this a horror game), a decent story, and great bossfights.

I am amazed see what i have played this is i think the best psychological horror games i played in recent few years i really liked the concept of game like go into the different parallel dimension worlds through listening through our protagonist patient's tapes. Every patient have it's unique bosses which they need to overcome & the protagonist really helps these patients to defeat there biggest fears in a cool way possible which is really cool concept. I personally really liked the game. Some puzzles are really good & mind blowing & that cat Tonya is just awesome & adorable. Well i liked the game there is hardly any negatives from my point of view i will give it fresh 8.5/10 ratings from my side. I also thinks this game deserves a good sequel to be honest i mean would definitely want to play that.

A really great game with plenty of old school FPS shooter charm. Graphics are basic but the atmosphere is amazing. The story is interesting and each section feels like a new game. Each one had it's own unique experience. Glad I gave this a play through cause it's worth it. This shows that you don't need a huge budget to make a great game.

got soft locked because the game didn't tell me to get the shotgun before heading into max's tape. it did not allow me to leave the tape and go back to my office to fix this error, instead giving me limited saves to try and fix this (i also ran out of ammo for both flare and pistol...there are no ammo respawns so i was left unable to do anything.) it didn't help that the easy mode did jack since i had barely any ammo...apparently i missed some of the tasks i was supposed to do as well because i was not pointed towards them properly...i love this game but i cannot say it is made well...

I literally cant play it. The first time I execute the game everthing was fine, I even got to the first room and only walked for a bit. But after that just blue screen crashes, even on the game menu itself I get this crashes and idk why that happens

The tags say the game is horror but it only goes for horror themes during the first main level you explore. You have a hub that you wander around in and then venture into levels that are representations of the minds of other characters. I will say I didn't really know what to expect going into the game, but I did enjoy the experience overall. I enjoyed the varying boss characters and how you have to deal with them and there's a good array of items/weapons to interact with the world.

I love this game and the sound track is beautiful. I love the themes here with some Greek and mental health

Unexpectedly not bland. In-game tools are made after psychological methods, such as self-reflection (shard), enlightenment ([spoiler]flare[/spoiler]), medication ([spoiler]pills[/spoiler]) interconnectivity ([spoiler]radio[/spoiler]). Also pistol and shotgun for somebody who likes blasting. Characters and plot twists are a bit spoilery, first you think you play in another dream world just in le head. Then it turns out either not just in le head, or head isn't just one? You'll see. P.S. I named еру dude in the hat "Agent [spoiler]Fuckface[/spoiler]", turns out I was half-right

Very good blend of horror and comedy, I like this funny yellow suited man.

Very nice music. My mind was blown! 8/10

STOP LOOKING THOUGH THE REVIEWS AND GET THE GAME ALREADY

Good game. Depressing story.

great game.

i love this so much
