Great science fiction mystery with beautiful art and music.I would love to live in a world like this in the right circumstances <3. A short (roughly three hours to complete), visual novel/point-and-click-adventure hybrid with themes of existentialism and one's eventual fate and how we're powerless to change it. The hand-drawn visuals help to create a gritty, dark foreboding setting throughout. Especially when you reach the final areas of the game. The narrative was just long enough to make me want to learn more about The CORE and Jonathan Campbell, the main protagonist. Yet it was also short enough to tell it's entire story without it feeling like a chore. The subtle soundtrack helped to further enhance the overall experience while playing. Though if this game has a notable flaw, it would be the lack of voice-acting in my opinion. Other minor gripes I have with the game are that the bulk of the narrative is told through messages in data-pads that are strewn about in each area. Most are easy to spot though a few took a moment or two for me to notice in the background. Because of this, you could miss out on a portion of the writing in this game if you just focus on advancing the story rather than taking the time to search each area thoroughly before moving along. Lastly, the two endings for this game feel a bit cliff-hanger-ish to me. Not a bad thing per se, but I would have preferred to have a more obvious and concrete ending to this story. Regardless, I recommend this game to anyone who's a fan of System Shock-esc science-fiction stories or those who want to play a VN hybrid with a more mature story and setting.. A real hidden gem, it deserves more recognition!. The Mind's Eclipse is really freakin' good. It is much, much better than I expected. So many visual novels have a bit of a dating sim feel to them, shoehorned-in romance or "clever" references to present-day pop culture and events. Not this one. There's nothing funny. Nothing cute. The Mind's Eclipse is straight-up no apologies science fiction. The singularity is here and it's a cluster♥♥♥♥. You walk around a moon base trying to figure out why.The graphics are raw and uncompromising, like an indie comic book. The story... well it goes exactly where you would expect it to go, but it's told so well that it doesn't matter that this is a well-worn path. Nanotech. AI. The singularity. It hits all the classic notes you would expect from a solid cyberpunk novel. If you are even just a little bit into hard sci-fi, you owe it to yourself to get this game. Really great work.. 8.5\/10!Oh man! What a pleasant surprise! This VN is mad good!!Its beginnings aren\u2019t terribly original\u2014you awake in a decrepit hospital with no memories and with only an AI to help guide you out before the hospital loses oxygen. Everyone else you meet is dead. Everything is crumbling. Why?Where the game goes after that is interesting, and tackles questions I see a decent amount in sci-fi about life without death in interesting ways. The writing is tight and punchy, and the rate at which information is revealed is the right one, with the right rhythm and pacing. Smaller substories end up feeding into the larger one in exactly the right way. Your AI companion, L, provides the perfect compliment to the dark tone by being a breath of fresh air, sharp and irreverent but never annoying.This is one step shy of a point and click adventure game, and it\u2019s rewarding navigating the world and exploring the map to find more information in the world and in messages you find. I loved the art style, and found that even though its loose, everything was easy to make out and navigate. The CGs in particular are great\u2014there are several dozen of them, more than I\u2019ve ever seen in a VN before, and they\u2019re incredibly evocative. Major major kudos to the two women who made up the main art team! I started and finished this in one day because I really wanted to find out what will come next, what will come after that, what else will I explore, and that\u2019s a great feeling.. A point'n'clicky visual novel which kept me hooked until the end.Pros: - Nice artworks - Moody soundtrack - Gloomy atmosphere - Interesting story. Nothing groundbreaking, but worth the time. - The surface of some existentialistic philosophy is touched here. Might be a bit bare bones if you're into that. - No romances, no love interestsCons: - It lost some of its pacing and claustrophobic atmosphere and felt therefore a bit dragged out in the middle part - Clicking on a hotspots a second time will trigger the initial events and dialogs, which became a chore from time to time. Don't click on a hotspot twice if you don't want to go through everything again.. The Mind's Eclipse made me wrestle with the question: what kind of future should we hope for? Advances in biotechnology and computing power are advancing daily. I admit I'm excited by the possibilities of both. This game explores implications when the confluence of the two leads to another question: what is the value of death? You'll love this game if these questions, and the technology driving them, are of any interest to you.. Wonderful game with great art!. A real hidden gem, it deserves more recognition!
