This is a game that clearly has a lot to say and manages to do so without overstaying its welcome. The solo dev has been very upfront about the game being based on their own struggles with mental health and you can tell this is very personal to them, which is always nice to see!

The symbolism takes priority over the puzzles, so it may not be for everyone. But it gets its message across quickly and clearly.

A very interesting little first person narrative game about mental health struggles. Not overly long either, and priced accordingly. Small technical jank: controls felt just a tiny little bit off (and in Xbox version you couldn't invert Y axis in-game). Also in Steam version achivements can get revoked apparently. (I don't know why that is even a thing.) But it's a small, solo dev game, so I won't expect the game to be perfect. It's great for what it is!

Very short but really good game / experience. Level 4 part 2 (Or was it 5?), with the water and the platforms and jumping to the door was a bit difficult.. The way the running jump keeps your momentum and doesn't slow you down as you move forward through the air, a dampening effect, would have been helpful. The movement on the ground was a bit weirder than I am use to as well, it had a sort of ice skating effect where your character continues to slide a little after you let go of the keys. Everything in the game worked though! I was able to complete the game and that makes me happy.

I remember playing this game for the first time on my xbox, had no idea it was on steam so i decided to playthru it again. Its a really short game that does a great job in visualizing different mental health issues. I'd recommend it to anyone whos struggling with mental health or just anyone whos curious about mental health. But for the price, theres not alot of games out there that can send the same message that Fractured Minds can. Ill eventually playthru it again, only complaint I have that it wasnt longer.
