About

Your name is Noah, at least that's what you are told. You awaken in a dank padded cell with no memories of your past and no idea why you are in a sanitarium. Your only desire is to reclaim your memories and find out who you really are, but some things may be better left hidden.

The soundtrack is now available at the link below!

Dead link here!

At http://www.izzygames.com/minds-eye-t365.html, I found this download link:

http://www.spiele-umsonst.de/azad/downloads/freegames/minds_eye_installer.zip

(Also, the indicated file-size above of 1.6 MB is incorrect: it's ~12.5 MB.)

The strengths of this game are not apparent until nearer to the end, but they do shine through. It does reward patience, so I recommend giving it a play, even if it does not immediately grab you. There is some truth to the criticisms about poor control, as it does become difficult to figure out exactly what action needs to be done, or even what you're doing when you click a given icon. But muddle through those problems, and you won't be disappointed.

I really liked every bit of this game.

great work.

You did a great job with this game. The plot was amazing, and the graphics were pretty good too. The music was appropriate and helped set the mood.

I definitely think this is one of the best games plotwise in a while. Plot twists are hard to execute well, but you did it.

Some of the scenes ran a bit slowly on my computer (the delirium scenes), and my computer is not slow. Other than that, great game.

A very snazzy game, although not particularly long. You may need to play through it a few times like I did, though, so this isn't a bad thing. I enjoyed the story thoroughly, and the characters were engaging. Music is very cool and appropriate to the game's atmosphere.

The sprites are really great -- especially the way everyone's eyes flare up when they react dramatically to something :)... I kinda get the impression the creator is into anime (not a bad thing) :-p, but he may also just be a fan of dramatic eye movements.

There were some problems with the interface and font in the older versions, but 1.4 (the version offered for download today) fixes these problems almost entirely. I still think the action icons are a little strange, however. You may have some trouble with the memory scenes -- where transparent overlays are displayed -- and by that I mean the game may slow down just a little, but it's not a huge problem and doesn't cause much trouble.

Overall, an enjoyable and well-made game; I'm very impressed with it :). I'd love to make game(s) with this kind of atmospheric/artistic integrity to them one day... if I can get the motivation for it - haha.
