This is one of those games where I figured I’d play a few minutes just to be polite to the friend who recommended it, and ended up enthralled. Definitely a favorite! Badge please. :slight_smile:

I beat it once before but I am so willing to run through it again due to the addition of Steam achievements. I’ve been a fan of Tim Schafer’s earlier adventure games and Psychonauts breathes its own air well. Loveable characters, crafty game mechanics around psychic powers and a charming story throughout.

So… who’s looking forward to the sequel (besides the VR game)?

I completed this game a long time ago and had a blast with the bizarre worlds. The characters were a lot of fun too and memorable. One of my favorite themes was the Waterloo World since I liked the board game theme!

I finished this just recently and it was so much fun after years of not playing 3D platformers. I loved them back in the day, still love them!

There sure are a lot of good games in Backlog Attack!

I don’t even remember how I first learned about Psychonauts. My first memory of it was watching the Zero Punctuation review talking about how great it is, and feeling vindicated that I was right. It is great. I’m pretty sure I also knew it was connected to Tim Schafer. But beyond that…

Then, when I met Andi, she played it and also thought it was good. I’m pretty sure I found a boxed copy in a Big Lots and bought it for her after I’d been raving about how good it was.

In retrospect, the game certainly has flaws, and I don’t know how excited I am for a Psyconauts 2 any more; but my kids still enjoy it, and it probably laid the groundwork for my oldest to get way into Hat in Time.

Badge, please!
