BRAVISSIMO 👌 It's been a long time since I've played a story-rich indie with the presentation quality of a big studio - this game is it! All around excellent This is a psychological thriller that will keep you digging for 15-20 hours, exploring themes of sanity, paranoia and psychology while keeping you engaged with first-person shooter action and some puzzle solving. It's a refreshing break from heaps of repetitive titles full of bad voice acting, asset flips and gameplay where you grind the same menial task over and over ad nauseum. No moment feels boring, dull or pointless. The gameplay feels solid, the music, sounds, environment and graphics all feel very solid too, There's not an iota of jank . The nitpick My only nitpick is that while the story is well put together and is presented masterfully , the final parts of the story feel a little bit rushed and a little cliche, in the sense that in the last hour or two a big revelation is dropped on you with massive implications, yet it is not really explored much deeper before you beat the game and the credits roll. So rather instead of a "to be continued" suspense it creates a bit of frustration or a slight disbelief. It feels like the final revelation in the story deserved some more time to explore before closure. TL;DR This is a solid 9.5/10 and well worth the money if you're looking for a 15-20 hour psychological thriller adventure. For the best experience go into this game blind. There is also some hidden things to find and see for completionists. There's a cat that you can pet.

So, I just wrapped up playing "In Sound Mind," and I’ve got to say, I’m buzzing with excitement. Normally, I don’t jump straight to reviews, but this game? I just can’t keep quiet. Spoiler-free zone, though, don’t worry. Imagine this: a game that perfectly blends thriller and horror vibes, with some satisfying combat and boss fights that hit that sweet spot of challenging without being frustrating. The environments are eye candy, the story keeps you hooked from start to finish, and the overall atmosphere is just… chef’s kiss. Oh, and the soundtrack? Absolute banger. "In Sound Mind" is a hidden gem that deserves a spot in your collection.

Wow, this is one of the best games i've ever played. Each level is rich and long, varied and dynamic mechanics, you can pet Tonia, and the story is actually really, really cool. I recommend this game to every person who enjoys games as a cinematic experience. 💜 10/10

In Sound Mind is unlike any horror game I've ever played. It's the perfect mix of vivid horror, formidable puzzles, and some humor here and there. One thing that really brings this game together is Desmond and his patients. You really grow attached to the characters and get drawn into each of their stories. And you can't help but feel sympathy for the main character and his patient's tormenting situations. The game tells each of their stories remarkably as well. It is a perfect way to keep you in suspense and find out what happens next in the characters' stories! And just like most games I've reviewed, I must mention the soundtrack. More specifically the records when you eventually get them, and they are FANTASTIC! The soundtrack of In Sound Mind extraordinarily stands out and adds to the experience of the game. Towards the end of this review, I say if you like horror games or not, this game is a definite play! Just for the incredible storytelling and the characters, because there's nothing quite like it, so I would highly highly recommend this game!
