About Mind Trap

Mind Trap is a collection of 4 short stories, which are heavily inspired by the 1950's tv show, Twilight Zone, Where the player must explore and follow the clues to learn the truth or their very own fate!

Episode One - Denial:
Jack Davis a man locked in a state of denial, finds himself in a waking nightmare. Not remembering who he is or where he is, he must uncover the truth by unlocking his own mind. However he might not like what he finds.

Chapters to follow:

Episode Two - Turbulence:
Suzan Danvers boards a plane due for Alaska, falling asleep on the long flight to wake up and discover that the flight crew and passengers are no where to be found. What horrors await at 30,000 feet?

Chapter Three - Left For Dead:
Miles Peterson is beaten and left for dead in the middle of nowhere, he stumbles upon a cabin in the woods which he decides would be a safe place to stay for the night. It turns out to be much more than he bargained for.

Chapter Four - Grave Mistake
Bill Jefferies is a simple man with a simple job. Working nights at Wood Grove Cemetery as an undertaker. While watching his favorite TV show reruns of Mind Trap, he is startled by strange noises coming from outside. Getting up to investigate those noises . . . . was a grave mistake.

Hello! If you're reading this, you've stumbled into the weird part of your Steam Queue. You were probably looking for indie horror related stuff and somehow you ended up here. I don't imagine you've ever heard of Mind Trap (and from the reviews and discussions page, it seems like not many others have either). Mind Trap bills itself as an episodic Twilight Zone-inspired adventure game and no part of that description is true. Mind Trap was released in Sept 2019 with promise of 4 episodes and almost 3 years later there is still only 1 episode. It's not so much an adventure game as it is a narrative unlocked by series of disconnected puzzles (no, not inventory puzzles either). Also, nothing about the actual story seems Twilight Zone inspired in terms of tone or subject matter. If anything this is closer to a Great Value version of Stories Untold. The only thing that is remotely connected to the Twilight Zone is that there's a narrator in a suit who appears at the beginning and end. I want to mention here at the narrator is... bad. He's unfitting. He doesn't have any vocal mystique and his voice doesn't match the avatar. But he's not the only one. The main voice actor is generally b…

"Mind Trap" is a rather poorly made abandoned Early Access "escape room" adventure puzzle game. Misleadingly advertising 4 episodes to prospective buyers, the developer partially finished one of them, took all the money that backers paid and ran for the hills. Not a single refund was given. The developers abandoned this 5 years and 3 months ago. It will never be completed. This unfinished game is just polluting Steam and making it harder for gamers to find genuinely, completely made games. This has some really mediocre looking graphics that will understandably be a turn off for a lot of gamers, and it's a big contributor to the failure of the game to attract gamers despite having no up-front cost. Gaming is a primarly visual medium, and if developers want to succeed, they must understand that it's not an area for compromise. You deserve better than compromises. It's free... now, but it wasn't before. The developer was charging $10 USD for this. Price barriers, especially on low quality products, can be a direct cause of failure. It's a nice gesture for the game to be given away for free, but it also tells us that the game wasn't good enough to succeed as a paid product.…

Игра 'Mind Trap' – это настоящий вызов для вашего интеллекта и творческого мышления! Она отлично подходит для компании друзей и семейных вечеров, превращая их в захватывающее соревнование умов. Вопросы в игре заставляют посмотреть на привычные вещи под новым углом, находить нестандартные решения и раскрывают потенциал ассоциативного мышления. Мне особенно понравилось разнообразие карт и типов головоломок. Здесь есть задачи на логику, на внимательность к деталям, на умение видеть скрытые значения. Игра заставляет активно взаимодействовать с другими игроками, делиться идеями и вместе искать правильный ответ. Иногда решение приходит мгновенно, а иногда приходится изрядно поломать голову и перебрать несколько вариантов. 'Mind Trap' – это не просто развлечение, это отличный способ прокачать свои когнитивные навыки, развить креативность и просто весело провести время. Рекомендую всем, кто любит интеллектуальные игры и не боится сложных задач!

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
