IMS will have you do some rudimentary platforming, crawl through spaces, solve basic puzzles and soak in the dark atmosphere while trying to figure out what in the world is going on.

Soon enough, you will assemble a gun, and these freaks won’t be much of a threat. Besides the mentioned Jigsaw’s cousin that looks like a knock-off Freddy Krueger and who only appears out of nowhere to troll you, the preview version also has the inkblot monsters mindlessly scanning the surroundings for you. However, ISM is not devoid of quite explicit enemies. Instead, they are a helpful piece of the environment, providing hints and directions. Luckily, while they might scare the living daylights out of you with their Amnesia-like off-screen movements, the grey plastic humanoid shells are not there to hurt you. Since the paranormal stuff is already going on, the game decides to crank it up with absolutely terrifying conscious mall mannequins. The sharp reflective object will come in handy as a classic mirror and stop her attacks behind you. Quite suiting, your weapon against her is a piece of a broken mirror.
#IN SOUND MIND WALLPAPER SERIES#
Since this level’s boss/victim is deathly petrified of being looked at, she needs to face her fears in a series of mirrors. The game successfully emulates that moment when you expect a jump scare, but the cliche shock never arrives. The constant sense of being watched and followed never leaves you while you go through the dark and dank corners of the market. That is where In Sound Mind shows its first moments of excellence. The ravaged supermarket is the first significant set-piece in the game, where you will have to defeat Virginia’s spirit and bring her tortured soul to peace. Crippled with fear of being observed and judged in any way, Virginia flipped and went on the rampage, and now you must fix the residue of all that. The first case (of the two available) revolves around a severely anxious young woman who slaughtered her family and caused mayhem in a local supermarket. By locating the cassette tapes of their sessions, you’ll unlock doors into strange dimensions where you will investigate their cases.

Once you reach your office, it won’t be long until you start investigating the cases of the patients you seemingly failed. The unnamed Jigsaw’s cousin goes on to vaguely explain that your patients have met their maker in the most gruesome way possible and that you are to blame. Soon enough, it becomes apparent that the building is a complex hub where you will embark upon various adventures, uncover secrets and assemble equipment. Equipped with just a flashlight, you venture into the blackness of this uncanny place. A mysterious unnamed “Jigsaw” voice greets you and begins unloading metric tons of guilt on your shoulders while you try to figure out what the hell is going on. You play as a shrink who wakes up in the basement of his psychiatric institution. While In Sound Mind’s assets now look just slightly updated compared to the (already) dated Nightmare House 2, its themes provide a much-needed refreshment in the survival horror genre.

#IN SOUND MIND WALLPAPER MOD#
Instead of jump scares and shocks, the mod utilized tension and a sense of being constantly targeted by the environment. The small disturbing map pack for Half-Life 2 became a horror fan favorite through the years. More than a decade ago, We Create Stuff development team gained significant respect with a Source engine modification called Nightmare House 2.
