More On: In Sound Mind

Games N Moorer's Joseph Moorer took to the streams last night to check out the first couple of levels of In Sound Mind, the new psychological horror game scheduled to release in September. Developed by We Create Stuff and published by Modus Games, In Sound Mind is described as "an imaginative first-person psychological horror with frenetic puzzles, unique boss fights, and original music by The Living Tombstone. Journey within the inner workings of the one place you can’t seem to escape—your own mind."

Joseph doesn't do well with the horror games, but he still sportingly wore his headphones to get the full effect from the game's eerie soundtrack (while also dropping The Outer Limits quotes - I see you, Joseph). As usual when playing horror titles, Joseph reacts poorly to ringing phones and is afraid of his own flashlight. But over the course of the two hour and 45 minute stream, he settles into a focused state, mumbling to himself while he solves puzzles and tries to work his way through a level backwards with a mirror ("This is crazy!").

In Sound Mind is scheduled to release on September 28 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC. You can wishlist the game here on Steam, as well as play through the demo, which contains a lot of the same content that Joseph plays through in the above video. Joseph will likely return to In Sound Mind in the coming weeks, as the preview version he has contains even more content - and entire second tape with a level not contained in the demo.

About Author

Howdy.  My name is Eric Hauter, and I am a dad with a ton of kids.  During my non-existent spare time, I like to play a wide variety of games, including JRPGs, strategy and action games (with the occasional trip into the black hole of MMOs). I am intrigued by the prospect of cloud gaming, and am often found poking around the cloud various platforms looking for fun and interesting stories.  I was an early adopter of PSVR (I had one delivered on release day), and I’ve enjoyed trying out the variety of games that have released since day one. I've since added an Oculus Quest 2 and PS VR2 to my headset collection.  I’m intrigued by the possibilities presented by VR multi-player, and I try almost every multi-player game that gets released.

My first system was a Commodore 64, and I’ve owned countless systems since then.  I was a manager at a toy store for the release of PS1, PS2, N64 and Dreamcast, so my nostalgia that era of gaming runs pretty deep.  Currently, I play on Xbox Series X, Series S, PS5, PS VR2, Quest 3, Switch, Luna, GeForce Now, (RIP Stadia) and a super sweet gaming PC built by John Yan.  While I lean towards Sony products, I don’t have any brand loyalty, and am perfectly willing to play game on other systems.

When I’m not playing games or wrangling my gaggle of children, I enjoy watching horror movies and doing all the other geeky activities one might expect. I also co-host the Chronologically Podcast, where we review every film from various filmmakers in order, which you can find wherever you get your podcasts.
