Innovation was the word of MAGS that month, and trance-pacific does not disappoint. Reading the instructions, I did find myself concerned that use of the Memo would be cumbersome, and I wasn't sure whether or not the game contained timed events, which as you can imagine would heighten one's concern regarding an unusual (unusually awesome!) inventory item that's clearly central to gameplay. Hurrah! No timed events and the Memo is an intuitive bit of kit.

This lovely little game was made in a month by just two gents, two gents, mind you who are innovating in a genre where controls can be uber-baneful, straightforwards, or worst case: inconsistent, leaving one experimenting and guessiong throughout. A month. Two people. Enjoyment magnified.

Nice visual framing, reasonable amount of dialogue, nicely devious puzzles, and a dose of 'realism' that makes for good immersion.

Was somewhat confused for a while by the semi-red herring 'Don't talk to things' line when you're trapped in the waiting area.

Anyway, very fun story, very fun game.

Very enjoyable, very innovative. It felt a little short and linear, but that is due to the short developments time allowed by the competition.

It's interesting to have companions with you the whole time, whom can offer insights or whom you must use for the puzzles.

There are a lot of descriptions for everything, some nice character interaction, even a red herring or two.

Then, of course, there's the Memo. An ingenious device that I only wish had seen more use. Just one thing - the character mentions that you should read the Readme to find out how it works, but there's a manual in your inventory as well, which doesn't tell you how to use it at all but is instead crucial to a puzzle. That caused some confusion for me because I kept trying to read it at the beginning of the game.

is a great game , the hypnotist is a incredible idea , nice puzzle and gui , i love the story and the characters

My only problem with this game is that it wasn't longer! It was incredibly, fantastically fun! And one of the most original plots I've ever seen.

Very well done. A worthy pick of the month. If the developers can spare the time, I'd recommend adding some audio to further enhance the high degree of immersion.
