   The puzzles are no hard at all but add to the immersion. so If you like a nice science fiction story and don´t that it´s pretty easy to play through. There are decisions in the game that I am curious about. The game autosaves each scene, but there´s no visible branching system as far as I can tell.… Expand

   Original story, beautiful retro art and a wonderful game. The puzzles are reasy but still fun. Several reviews complain about the characterOriginal story, beautiful retro art and a wonderful game. The puzzles are reasy but still fun. Several reviews complain about the character getting stuck in some parts of the scenery, and despite that is true, it does not affect the gameplay really and is not a reason not to play the game. The develpers should take note and fix the issues, but still is a fun game. I was about to discard buying it after reading the profesional reviews, but luckily the user reviews really revealed how good the game really is.… Expand

   Es un poco cansado y frustrante encontrar las pistas, pero interesante y atrapante la historia.

Los finales pudieron ser algo más atrapantes, pero se perdona por intentar innovar en el misterio y ciencia ficción donde se ambienta. No tuve ningún problema más que pequeños errores en algunas secuencias o cargas de mundo, pero todo lo demás es pasable. Solo que si puedo decir esto (no es recomendable a gente con poca paciencia porque es más lectura y menos acción de lo que se espera de un juego). Pero por lo menos si eres fanático de una trama de misterio, desaparición, giros inesperados y dudar de si lo que haces esta bien o mal es tu juego.… Expand

   If you like Blade Runner, Black Mirror, The Matrix or film noir stories, have interest in transhumanism and AI, like to think along and knowIf you like Blade Runner, Black Mirror, The Matrix or film noir stories, have interest in transhumanism and AI, like to think along and know what to expect (a compelling story, atmosphere and exploration) and not to expect (action and difficult puzzles) from an interactive story game, then consider getting this title.
   
   The most important part of an interactive story is, well, the story and the way it is presented; and for me that ride has been compelling from the first to the last minute. There are many scenes and situations that are really well dramatised, some so well that they gave me goosebumps. The author, Ganteföhr has been targeting adult players with his adventure game stories for two decades and he did a great job here. There are various references, details and thought-provoking situations that people with an interest in AI, privacy, transhumanism will understand and like. You can stop to think deeper about the constellations (e.g. the meaning of the two main characters) and interpret around, like in Black Mirror and Blade Runner or any good literature. The low poly graphical style is truly aesthetic, the play with light is used beautifully for working out the contrast between the two cities (and characters). Also, somebody at daedalic seems to have a hidden talent for interior architecture. That characters look like they are made from glass shards is another embedded meaningful detail.
   
   It is not perfect however. The controls are a bit clunky and you often get stuck in the beautiful furnishings. But this is not a big nuisance. What weighs more is that, like too many otherwise good adventure games (Monkey Island 2, Thimbleweed Park) State of Mind has a weak ending that leaves too many interesting story branches open. The last 15% of the game feel rushed and it feels like they took the easy way out.
   
   Nevertheless State of Mind entertained me for a solid 12 hours, and I will play it again with the English voiceover (which has the English voiceactor of Geralt).
   
   Btw, I did not buy it from the eShop but got the physical module / retail version from Germany.… Expand

   This is that kind of game, which is very hard to call a game... Gameplay is too simple, and that makes it boring, but plot is very good and immersive.

What brought the score down was the bad mechanics, boring gameplay and bland story. All of the characters spoke with an awkward tone, the lines were cringy and I had no interest in a single character. I really tried to like this game but all of the reasons above made me dislike it greatly. Tut mir leid.… Expand
