Description

Overview 

MindsEye is an ever-expanding gameplay experience with a story campaign, endless stream of new playable content delivered regularly, and the power to create your own games with our simple to use building tool. 

  

About the Game  

 

MindsEye Campaign 

MindsEye is a single-player, story-driven sci-fi action-adventure thriller set in the near-future desert city of Redrock. Play as Jacob Diaz, a former soldier haunted by a mysterious implant and fractured memories. Complete cinematic missions, piece together your past, and expose a conspiracy in which rogue AI, corporate control, and a military program beyond oversight are exploiting a power source that was never meant to exist, triggering a threat that reaches far beyond the city. 

  

 

The City of Redrock 

Redrock is a desert metropolis where AI and robotics control daily life, shaping everything from commerce to security. Beneath the surface, the city hides secrets, dangers, and conflict. Climate change has turned the environment hostile: brutal heat and relentless sandstorms roll through every district, from high-rise towers to industrial zones and remote outposts. 

 

  

Combat 

Engage in tactical combat where strategy matters, use cover, environmental hazards, and an arsenal ranging from pistols and SMGs to sniper rifles, and futuristic energy weapons. Your DC2 companion drone connects directly to your implant, enabling hacking, reconnaissance, and on-the-field combat. 

 

  

Driving and Vehicle Action 

The story places you behind the wheel of electric cars, muscle vehicles, buggies, and drones. High-speed chases, desert runs, and intense air pursuits are designed to test your skills and keep the action moving. 

 

  

Endless Stream of New Content 

MindsEye extends beyond the main campaign, with an endless stream of new playable content delivered regularly. New missions, races, puzzles, and challenges are developed and released by the BARB team, built to keep the experience evolving. 

 

  

Simple to Use Creation Tools 

Create, publish, and play. Our simple-to-use building tools turn MindsEye into a creation platform. Build and remix campaign quality missions, environments, and game modes, then share them with the community and play what others create.

No! GOG games have no DRM and can be played without an internet connection, totally offline. Some bonus content might require an internet connection to download, but we do our best to limit that need. Read more about DRM.

DRM and Install issues

Install Issues: Every launch, the game easks to install prerequisites. DRM issues: The build mode cannot be accessed offline. As this is a big portion of the game, it can break at any moment is the servers for the game are cut. This is not mentionned on the GOG storefront. Some prepackaged content made by the devs seems to work offline but the main creation tool needs a constant internet connection to function properly. This is unfortunate as he single player mission editor is locked behind an internet connection. The campaign mode is the only mode that is playable offline. Performance is also not good. A lot of stuttering happens.

Promising game but install is buggy

I really wanted to give this game a fair go. I'd heard a lot about it and the criticisms about it. However, I played many hopeless games and found plenty to enjoy, so thought I'd give this one a go. It's got quite a good level of polish in parts, and the short amount I played was better than many other games with much higher ratings. Yes it's a bit clunky, but I can get past that. The main issue is the very problematic install and subsequent relaunching of the game. The install process though is VERY buggy. It continually asks for UE4 to be installed/uninstalled as well as C++ dependencies over and over. The game eventually crashes on startup. There are workarounds, but this really needs to be fixed and is not ready for retail in my opinion. I'm very disappointed by this just being thrown onto the store front and have requested a refund, sadly.

Didn't expect it to be this good

So far I would describe it similar to Watch Dogs, but with a Cyberpunk flavour. After all negative reviews, I did not expect the game to be this good. It's not jank, it's not broken (anymore?), it's not bad. The gameplay is varied and it plays well so far. Performance is good on a Geforce 4060, full hd resolution. Almost all options are set to 'epic' visual quality. The story is ok, I think. The dialogues are really bad. It's going from cliche to cliche. I do not like the dialogue-writing. Also I don't care about the characters. The writing is very Netflix, which isn't a good thing. The cinematics are good, though! Arcadia - the building part - is well made, has a lot of content and gives you unlimited options to build your own levels or even missions. I am hoping to see more QOL-updates in the building part. For example, I am looking for a wall. Which one to select from all the 100+ walls? Maybe more filter options, or better selection screen? So maybe Mindseye is not just a game, but actually a game and a tool combined. Or is this a tool, with a pre-fabricated campaign? DRM - GOG I have seen reviews on GOG stating the Arcadia (= building) part does not work fully offline. That's a shame, because the GOG website says: "DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play." Thoughts so far: * 2 hours playtime: plays well, well made product, but I'm afraid the campaign is a bit boring because the missions are things I've already done before in other games. * 3 hours playtime: action gameplay is basic but good: cover system and shooting. Mission gameplay is more interesting, because the environment/setting changed. * 4 hours playtime: good campaign so far! I can't believe some reviews gave this game a bad review. I would rate it 8/10 so far. I hope the campaign will be expanded with dlc, with the same cinematic quality. * 6 hours playtime: The campaign reminds me of PS3 era-games, which is a good thing. Mix of espionage and action. 8.2/10. * 25 hours playtime: Campaign is almost finished. I still think this is a good game! Especially with the extra missions you get and level/mission building tools. 8/10. -Highlights- The car chase mission, the cinematics, building your own set piece in Arcadia.

Suprisingly good

I did read the negative reviews, but I liked the game's visual design on the screenshots/videos, so I gave it a shot and it is surprisingly good. Interesting story, good gameplay and stunning visuals. One of the few games that kept me in front of the screen this year. Beware, it needs horsepower, I can play with maxed out settings and DLAA, but my rig is Ryzen 7700/48GB RAM/5070Ti and NVMe SSDs.
