蛮不错的 被画风骗进来的 这个画风好可爱啊哈哈哈哈哈哈 缺点也是有的 心灵冲浪容易给人玩红温 探案调查给的时间不太够感觉有点赶 也可能是我每个东西都想调查这一块浪费了时间 一周目谨慎挑选半天发现选错了 因为是最后一天选择凶手周一就又死一个然后匆匆结束 更不爽的一点是 每次问询前那个耍帅动画不能跳过 还有 主角好像肯德基老爷爷啊哈哈哈哈哈 挺可爱的 瑕不掩瑜 我打折入手的 还行捏
Piszę tę recenzję pięć dni po przejściu gry, bo wahałam się czy nie wrócić do niej i spróbować znaleźć faktycznego mordercę. Trochę odstraszał mnie fakt, że gra jednak wymaga tego, byśmy ponownie zaliczyli wszystkie pięć dni, odbyli różne rozmowy w celu odkrycia poszlak itd. Ostatecznie zrezygnowałam i sprawdziłam rozwiązania w internecie. Poddałam się głównie dlatego, że zbyt żmudne wydawało mi się podchodzenie ponownie do rozgrywki, gdzie twórca nie za bardzo zaimplementował coś takiego jak „new game +”. Pomimo tego jestem całością zachwycona i Mindcop naprawdę zasługuje na pełne uznanie za pomysł, nieźle zrealizowany motyw detektywistyczny, do tego wszystko tak wspaniale tutaj wygląda, zostało świetnie zaanimowane, a utwór „Mindgames” Kevina Mausera już zagościł na mojej playliście. Najlepsze jest w tej grze nawet nie samo śledztwo i zbrodnia. Paradoksalnie one są właściwie tylko pretekstem do tego, by bawić się mechaniką „przesłuchiwania” myśli podejrzanych i poznawać ich losy, sekrety, a także odkrywać prawdę o wydarzeniach sprzed wielu lat. Najzabawniejsze jest to, że podczas szukania informacji o grze, trafiłam w sieci na niezwykle ciekawe teorie dotyczące głównego bohatera i jego fachu. Nie zdradzając wiele, warto po przejściu gry sprawdzić, dlaczego podczas sesji treningowych nie możemy do końca wniknąć w umysł Lindy. Chcę więcej tak świeżych tytułów jak Mindcop. Podobnych rzeczy ze świecą szukać.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Very fun and cool game :)
Muy guapo el juego la verdad, las mecánicas que tiene sobre la mente son muy interesantes y te dan mucho juego para plantearte cómo ha sido el asesinato. Me pasé el juego con una libretita donde iba apuntando todo lo que me parecía sospechoso y me divertí bastante. Vas a tener que pensar bien cómo racionar tu tiempo mientras hilas todas las conversaciones con los sospechosos. Si te gustan los juegos de detectives o quieres entrar en la mente de un perro recomendado.
Forgot to review this game when I played it last summer, but I have thought about it frequently and fondly since then. One of my favorite detective games ever, and I play a lot of detective games. It puts a fresh spin on the common Psychic Detective trope, and the time mechanic adds a sense of urgency and replayability. You will never see everything on a single playthrough, and you may struggle to get the killer right as well. My guess was right, but I lost anyway because I didn't accuse the suspect in time, mostly because I expected there to be more concrete evidence, but like the Mindcop, you will have to rely somewhat on intuition in this case. I love the art style, the map is small but well-crafted, the music is fantastic, especially during the mindsurfing minigames, and I even added a few of the songs to my main playlist. The minigame itself isn't the kind of thing I usually enjoy, and occasionally felt repetitive due to the number of times you have to do it, but it wasn't enough to bring down my overall experience at all. Outside of the minigame, mindsurfing is possibly my favorite mechanic in a detective game ever. It's so fun exploring characters' memories and trying to piece together which ones are real, especially when multiple characters have conflicting memories of the same event. The characters themselves are the best part of the game, each with their own secrets, tragedies, and motivations. They all feel very real and you will probably be suspicious of most of them at one point or another. Mindcop and Linda are probably the best buddy cop duo in all of gaming and I would LOVE to see a bunch of standlone sequels about them solving unrelated crimes. In fact, remembering how much fun I had with it, I think I might have to do another replay. Developers, if you see this, sequel please. I need more Mindcop and Linda yesterday. (Note: My play time is for some reason showing up as 1 hour, but it's actually almost 11, which is for about two and a half playthroughs.)
Great story with good music and fun mechanics. The story is a little short(like our hero) and left me wanting more. Here's hoping for a Mindcop 2!
I am terrible at this game, but it is very good. I wish I were good at it. WHY??? WHY SHOULD A**** DIE???
.
yeah
Прекрасный детектив, жаль, что из-за особенностей жанра игра на один раз, но я более, чем доволен Механика внедрения в разум неплохо разбавляет геймплей, крепкие 8/10
