Psychonauts
Description
Delve into people's minds as Raz, a powerful young cadet at a psychic summer camp. While working on his merit badge in levitation, Raz discovers that someone is kidnapping psychic children and stealing their brains. To foil this evil plot and earn the title of Psychonaut, Raz must project himself into the mind of one bizarre character after another to battle their nightmares and inner demons. He does all this while continuing to earn psychic merit badges in subjects such as telekinesis, clairvoyance and fire-starting.
This amazing 3D platformer adventure, full of brilliant humor, trippy setting, and surreal action, became famous for its originality and excellence of design. If you're looking for a unique gaming experience, this is a fine pick. More than just fine, as a matter of fact--double fine!

- One of the greatest titles of the platformer genre

8.7/10
The first half of this game is easily one of the most enjoyable I've had in the past year. But as is the case with many humorous games, the laughs begin to fade in the home stretch and in the end Psychonauts started to wear on me.

8.9/10
Inspired, delightful and at times bordering on the insane. Psychonauts is mind-blowing, however it's tricky at times and definitely not for kids.

8/10
What's unavoidable is the fact that almost all of the problems that weigh Psychonauts down are borne out of the legacy that the platform genre itself has, and Double Fine - like so many other developers - has largely been unable to avoid falling into the same pitfalls of inconsistent level design and unwise difficulty spikes. Dammit.

All time great platformer
I first played it on the PS2 and have played it several times since. It is funny, creative, and fun. Same writer as Portal, Eric Wolpaw, so if you like that humor and early 3D platformer gameplay, then you should like this game and it's sequel.

An absolute must buy
Gret fun. Wonderful level design. I played this for the first time in 2024 and it still holds up. Absolutely perfect!

Almost perfect.
So, this game gets a lot of love from the critics and it's good. Considering it's age it has tight 3D platforming mechanics and plenty of different abilities for you to learn. It all takes place in this quirky world with quirky people and has something of the Tim Burton claymation about it, and it's style means it has aged beautifully. The premise is fun, the creativity is immense and the humour is on point most of the time. However, there are two times when I had to pause the story and go collecting items (magic arrowheads and psychic cards) in order to progress. The first time was at the six hour mark, and I think this is why the average player time is just over six hours...however, don't be super put off, with the help of a magic dousing rod you can buy from the main cabin, both of these detours into collectathon only lasted around ten minutes but still that isn't perfect and feels a bit grindy. I suppose for the 11 hours I've played, 20 minutes of grind isn't a bad trade-off but that 20 minutes wasn't fun. Also, there's a level where you have to find a milkman, and goddamn I'm glad the internet exists to show me how to progress, or I would've been stuck on the 'puzzles' in this level. Do I reccomend it? Hell yeah. A classic for sure with memorable moments and laugh-out-loud characters. Is it perfect? Not quite.
