==The Story== | |||
Mind's Eye is a study in the fragile nature of the human psyche. The player assumes the role of Noah, a battered, aging mental patient with no memory of his past and no hope for a future. While being questioned by the brilliant Dr. Knox, Noah seems to suffer 'another' psychotic break and attempts to kill Knox. Injected with a mysterious drug that among other things gives him glimpses into lost memories, Noah is determined to find out who he is and why he was institutionalized. | Mind's Eye is a study in the fragile nature of the human psyche.

Mind's Eye was originally conceived as a Halloween 'scare' game; as you play through it you will find MANY references to the author's favorite films, not limited to but including: John Carpenter's The Thing, Child's Play, and Re-Animator. As the game developed, however, it took a turn away from horror and into a mystery thriller, with a beleaguered protagonist who comes off innocent- and at times- dangerous. | Mind's Eye was originally conceived as a Halloween 'scare' game; as you play through it you will find MANY references to the author's favorite films, not limited to but including: John Carpenter's The Thing, Child's Play, and Re-Animator.
