Mind Scanners is an indie simulator set in a dystopian world, in which we examine the mental health of its inhabitants using strange devices and make diagnoses. It was developed by The Outer Zone studio.

Mind Scanners was developed by a small Danish studio and is an adventure simulator with RPG elements. It tells the story of a man who takes up the profession of the mindscanner. He has to examine the inhabitants and make diagnoses which influence the plot development, but our ultimate goal is to find his daughter. The game is published by the studio Brave At Night, known thanks to the warmly welcomed Yes, Your Grace.

Plot

In this alternate vision of a futuristic world, we are taken to a metropolis called The Structure. It was built inside a crater, after a tragic meteorite fall. People who survived this event learned to control an energy source called Zygnoka and decided to seal themselves off from the rest of the world in this technologically advanced, hermetic metropolis, where order and control are the greatest values. In order to provide the inhabitants with the best possible productivity and to limit the incidents which disturb the order, the mindscanner profession was created - an alternative psychiatrist, who, using a strange apparatus, without medical knowledge but with a bit of empathy, makes diagnoses and tries to help patients. This is what the protagonist of the game decided to do, not for financial reasons, but because it is the only way he can find his daughter.
