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!
  • A brilliant story that will not let go of you until you finish the game
  • An absolutely unique atmosphere with a psychedelical level design by Tim Schafer's famous Double Fine team
  • One of the greatest titles of the platformer genre

Over-looked gem

Psychonauts is imaginitive, creative, intelligent and above all fun! It's funny and entertaining, something all too few games manage to do. A must-buy, in every sense of the word.

One of the best games ever? Yes.

Do you want a game with an interesting cast of characters? How about a game with excellent level design? Cool powers? Different conversation options? Places to explore and things to collect? Oh, and humor. Because Psychonauts has all of this, and more. Whether you're saving the brains of your classmates, helping battle Napoleon Bonaparte, or wondering why your subconscious is filled with meat, you'll always find something to laugh at. Double Fine created a masterpiece, and the only disappointing thing about Psychonauts is that more people haven't played it. Don't be one of them. Get this game now!

Very good

I'd heard good things about this game, first notably from a rather crude and popular interview review guy. But the game lives up to the hype. Interesting story, good characters and character animation, often catchy music (the music from the HQ area has been stuck in my head for days), and fairly good although sometimes frustrating game play. My one complaint, if it can be made is that the intro arc is too short. The time BEFORE the main action gets started is all too brief, I would've liked to have known the characters a bit more before the crap hits the fan. And don't get me wrong, I talked to everyone, but I would've liked a little more talking, especially with the kids. Also it was never clear to me what the Janitor character was for, he didn't do much of anything. This is well worth the price, and anyone even remotely interested should give it a go. You won't be dissapointed. I would probably give it a 4.5 stars, but as there are no half-stars a 5 will have to do.

Buy it .. you'll love it...

I picked up this game on a whim fron Big Lots one day several years ago. I'd never heard of it, but the pyschadelic box caught my eye. I figured it'd be worth the 4 bucks if i played it a bit that evening, if never again. I guess i got my moneys worth as i was still playing it a week later. I didn't even touch another game until I'd finished it. I'm normally not into platformers, 2d or 3d, but I thoroughly enjoyed this title. The story line, voice acting and gameplay are first rate. Comedy is hidden all over the game, from boy who thinks the squirrels are conspiring against him, to naming the camp band. The best game that few ppl have ever heard of.

Genius.

Psychonauts is one of the most brilliant games of the past decade. I am generally stingy with my compliments, but this here is UTTER BRILLIANCE on many, many levels. The writing, the dialog, the art style(s), the humor, the puzzles, everything is so remarkably well done that I was completely blown away. The only iffy part is the controls, but you get used to them fast. If you haven't played it - go and buy it. Right this instant. The price is a mere $10, and believe me, it is easily worth $50. For those of you who follow the gaming press, it is one of the very few games that Yahtzee (of Zero Punctuation) has spoken highly of. I am extremely glad to add it under number 148 to the list of games that I beat!
