Truly a bewildering game. From its stylistic choices to its gameplay, it feels like a strange ride that ends far too quickly. By the end, I found myself questioning what I had actually played. I don’t think the game is worth the money. Most of the puzzles are very easy, with only two standing out—and those didn’t feel properly solvable within the game itself.

i have played free mobile games that are longer and more entertaining than this, 10/10 to play with your friends on voicecall
One of the laziest, most shockingly stupid games I've played in a long time. "The answer is on the back of another game...", is apparently what should lead you to a borderline unnoticeable string of numbers on the back of the US boxed release of Metal Gear Solid. I'd say it was a God-awful joke by someone with no idea what comedy is, or AI generated, but given the release year and the rest of the game, I can only assume this was made by an aspiring dev that one must assume ended up directing Mind's Eye.
mmm....
