Finding a number of different pills of certain varieties can increase your Speed, Health, Stealth, and Stamina-with three pills needed to increase your stats by one. In Sound Mind encourages exploration through numerous secrets, especially the stat improving pills. The further you play, the more of the apartment building you can explore, yielding more tapes, more memories, etc. It’s like haunted house game design, with different memories almost serving as different themes for the sections of the haunted house, with Desmond’s office and apartment building serving as a sort of hub world. Each of the memories you explore, strange encounters you experience, nightmares you suffer through, all have a fun house attraction feeling to them. One of my biggest complaints of In Sound Mind is that it suffers from feeling like a haunted house. But the gunplay is mediocre, and suffers from strange not-really-iron-sight aiming where the character looks down the side of the gun instead. Eventually you get a gun, which is a strangely refreshing change of pace for such a game. There is even an enemy avoidance mechanic-until there isn’t. There are the trippy dream sequences, etc. There are the memories that are explored through found paper and audio recordings.

There’s the flashlight with the batteries that deplete too quickly (even though there are batteries for it everywhere).

In Sound Mind more often falls into genre tropes all too often, however.

But on the other hand, this same glass is then used as a way to break through wooden boards, which is just baffling. Early in the game there’s a section where you have to use a shard of glass to scare away an apparition that doesn’t like to look at itself in the mirror. That isn’t to say that In Sound Mind doesn’t have a few clever mechanics. It sounds like a good recipe for a good time, but I fear it doesn’t do enough to distinguish itself. While you’re sneaking and fighting your way through these nightmare locations, you will be pursued by a sinister, mocking presence that will criticize, challenge, and try to kill you.

Full of strange creatures and nightmare horrors, you have to journey through difficult memories while solving puzzles, defeating monsters, and discovering the truth of your predicament. In it, you play as Desmond, a person who is trapped in their own mind and has to suffer through their memories-and that of their patients’ memories. In Sound Mind is a first person survival horror game. While there are some clever ideas, In Sound Mind follows a well-trodden path.

In Sound Mind is made by the developers of popular Half-Life 2 mod Nightmare House 2, so with a pedigree like that you’d expect something that really stands out, right? Well, sort of. To say psychological horror has been explored before is an understatement, but still, every year a handful of games have you work out your mental problems by fighting (or avoiding) literal demons and other nightmare manifestations. There’s no shortage of horror-themed video games with many of those games being ones that emphasize psychological horror. That means lots of pumpkin spice, and scary movies and video games. Fall is here, and the weather is finally (sort of) cooling down.
