    While the world was struggling with Netflix like it was Hotmail in 1997, last night I played and beat Mindcop, a neat non-linear whodunit with great writing and surprising dark undertones. "Small village murder" vibe. Solved the muder on the first run, too. 🧠 store.steampowered.com/app/1517180/...

    #gaming #demos Here we have another curiosity i discovered through game demos on my switch, Mindcop. Most gameplay is executed like a point’n click but it has a fee traits that prevent me from simply labeling it as such. I would actually label it as a detective/investigator narrative game.

    Finished Mindcop. Fabulous game for anyone who wants some fascinating surrealism in their film-noir murder mystery. Clever, intriguing, and polished. Prepare three to five hours because you will not put it down until you finish a playthrough. 10/10 mindsurfs. #mindcop #indiegame

    Good stream! We successfully solved the murder and caught the killer in Mindcop... My thoughts? It is a weird game that deals with some pretty dark subjects, so it's not gonna be for everyone, but it's also pretty good, decent game mechanics and an engaging plot. Worth a try if you like whodunnits.
